    And after this unusual cold spell for November, anything approaching climo will seem like a torch to many, lol.
  2. 78Blizzard
    Right. Just an hour later I think it was down to 22.

    Thanks for that update. That should have at least got it a mention in Don's list, as he had Trenton tying their record.

    Makes you wonder about that thermometer out at KBOS with all those coastal cities south of it reporting record low maximums, and not just by a degree or two.

    12/05 most always seems to be a favorable time, and the 18z GFS may be starting to zero in on that.

    Lol at the GFS total qpf by next Tue. Enjoy your snow while it lasts if that ever verifies. https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=gfs&region=neus&pkg=apcpn&runtime=2018111900&fh=210

    Boston SSTs are running 2°F colder than last year for this date and the coldest since 2014, currently at 50°F. It should only get better after the arctic blast starting Wednesday. It won't matter much for these November storms around here, but it bodes well for the usual cliff hangers in December where a degree or two could make the difference, barring any unforeseen extended warmups. https://seatemperature.info/november/boston-water-temperature.html

    For those who believe in such forecasts, the Old Farmers predicted this area would be 4° above normal this month, lol. Not off to a good start this year.

    I noticed that the winds were gusting to 38 mph there.

    TWC official forecast for Brockton area is for 5-8 inches now. One of their winter wx experts feels that the cold air is going to be difficult to displace, even at the midlevels. Since Brockton is 15 mi SE of here, things should look good for my hood if this verifies.

    The Outer Banks would be completely destroyed if the 0z GFS verified.

    Yeah, I remember attending the Blue Hill Observatory 125th anniversary with my son in late January, 2010 on a brutal cold day here. Paul Kocin and Dr. Louis Uccellini were following the big storm hitting the mid Atlantic while they were giving their lecture.

    Just shoveled the front walkway and measured 18 inches. That area is not subject to drifting like the driveway, so an accurate figure. Could have lost an inch due to compaction since it wasn't measured during the storm. Also, there is a band about to come through with another one now flaring up further west, so could add another 1 or 2 inches to that.

    One side of my long driveway is lined with about 20 5' global arborvitaes that are really hanging down. Will have to go out to brush them off after dinner. Happens this way in these heavy snowfalls.
  15. 78Blizzard
    Visibility here now 1/4 mile or less. Really dumping.
  16. 78Blizzard
    The guy across the street snow blowed his driveway about an hour ago, and judging from the sides of the paths we already have over a foot here.
  17. 78Blizzard
    Heaviest here now since this AM.
  18. 78Blizzard
    It looks like that band further west is consolidating with that death band, so there may not be much of a lull between them by the time it gets here.
  19. 78Blizzard
    We're ripping now as that band has finally arrived.
  20. 78Blizzard
    Yeah, it's halted its E movement so that we can't quite get into the meat of that band. Just on the edge.
  21. 78Blizzard
    But the east edge has finally made it here and things are ramping up again.
  22. 78Blizzard
    We are in a screw hole here right now.
  23. 78Blizzard
    Uncle?
  24. 78Blizzard
    Two storms ago we were all waiting for the rain to turn to snow. It never happened down here. Those waiting now for a major change for the worse (much less snow) will also be disappointed.
  25. 78Blizzard
    The QPF totals were better though in E MA, SE MA and the Cape.
