  1. At 150 hr, the GFS gets the 1000-500 thickness of 516 dm just into NE FL and the -5 C at 850 to MIA. That's Jan 1977 caliber stuff (snowed in MIA).
  2. Ruin his chance to have the most in SNE given the HRRR crushes coastal MA tomorrow with weenie OES bands!
  3. Haven't look at all posts, so sorry if this has been already mentioned WTH is this thing that crosses SNE around late this evening on the RRFS? You can trace it back to WV. Gravity wave? Notice it flips the S to IP over CoastalWx's area. A strong gravity wave occurred from the Mid-Atlantic ti SNE on 1/4/1994. Here is my summary I made long ago when I worked at WSI. A major coastal storm was in progress across the Mid-Atlantic states and northeastern U.S. Elkins, West Virginia recorded 6 inches of snow in one hour and Syracuse, New York had 5 inches of snow in a hour for two consecutive hours. Syracuse measured 18 inches for the storm. Other big snowfall totals included 20 inches at Renovo, Pennsylvania and 18.5 inches at Tully, New York. As the storm passed off the New Jersey coast, a gravity wave was induced near Allentown, Pennsylvania. The barometric pressure plunged 22.4 millibars from 997.7 to 975.3 in just 45 minutes at Allentown, and then rebounded almost as much in only 15 minutes. The gravity wave propagated northeastward and produced similar pressure fluctuations in New England. Boston, Massachusetts recorded a wind gust to 66 mph.
  4. I was referring to CoastalWx's temp in Marshfield and the Marshfield Airport. BOS was a reference point as it was warmer there than the 17 reported in Marshfield.
  5. So is KGHG going to make this a blizzard officially from its often questionable AWOS observations? Really it should be more than a single location to call it a blizzard or not. That reduces chances of bad observations or malfunctioning equipment contaminating things. Coastal front though BOS!
  6. I bet you will watch more outside S+ than the game! The 18z HRRR just LUVs the S Shore for weenie OES bands imposed on synoptic cold 500 low SN later Monday.
  7. Perhaps something like this? This was in the middle of a nasty blizzard. G108 mph MQE and paste snow massive power outages.
  8. CoastalWx going retro back home for the classic experience! Where's your wind? KGHG currently VRB03KT!
  9. Oh, here 's something wild...pre-storm and now w/ S+ BOS, wind has been NW the entire time. How often do you see *that*??? Usually, it NE or E and howling well before the S starts.
  10. BOS at 9 F when the snow first starts for a MONSTA snowstorm is an exceptionally cold temp for this location. And -30 F in NNE the day of the start as well. Usually, that means "cold 'n dry, kiss'em goodbye!" w/ DC getting buried instead. This was the case for PD1 in 1979.
  11. CoastalWx knows its PT time when BOS starts S- when it's 9 F. And it immediately went down to 1.5 SM. Let the weenie of all weenie storms begin!
