Here is the 18z RGEM 7h vertical velocity. Pretty nice banding signal here.

I think ORH on east has true red flags south of MA border. Concerned with the extent of that dryslot. Would be horrific combination of marginal boundary layer, and poor snow growth rates. Northwest Connecticut to the Berkshires has been targeted as sweet spot for days. The real enigma has been valleys, and Eastern New England. Further North and West you are, that dryslot and warm air is out of the picture. Looks great for Rt. 2 higher elevations no matter what. The real question is Eastern MA, valleys. Those are absolute wildcards. It's not like the temperatures aloft are super warm. It's very marginal there too. If we can overcome that with rates; look out. A weenie's dream = waking up tomorrow to isothermal man snow bomb. I have also noticed pretty impressive 7h look for CT on the backside of this thing. Considering the fact cold air is driving south, and the storm is stalling offshore, that could mean a nice finish for many in the interior of Southern New England. It's important to note the wild spread in solutions still at this close range. If modeling is struggling this much, means we really have some uncertainty on the table. Surface temperatures need to be watched like a hawk this evening.

If you are a desperate weenie: box just tweeted out this map. If you're in the red circles, blow on the dice. Maybe u get lucky.

GFS has been too cold.

About as painful as you can draw up for sne weenies.

NAM verbatim is a banding signal out to western and Central CT as storm matures. Something to watch.

Eastern mass gets the ccb on the euro.

Watching though still. Have to see if maybe mid-levels can save us second half (doubtful)

Gets Hartford up to 41f later tonight.

NAM folded. Close the shades.

I feel like I'm being water boarded.

How does it look near the North Quincy MBTA stop

Thank God Ed is here. Otherwise I'd be melting. Long live Ed.

OK but what the hell is going on with the children in Amityville. The people need to know.

Still under a WSW. Lol.

Great q

That's my cue to leave. 0-2".

Modeling very clearly showed snow possible interior before warm air floods in this evening.

Simsbury is not the worst snow spot in interior Sne I can name about 15 towns around me that are worse. I know you get confused and tired this time of day take a nap

He doesn't look, he told me there were no red flags 48 hours ago and now there is a nipple on top of tolland

It's possible, but just not a comfortable experience.

The low sits over your house. In what world that is encouraging I don't know.

I'm moving back east.
