IT's been ripping here for about 2 hours with the wind howling. Deck, car and street are all blown free of snow. I hope people can measure someplace to see what actually comes down. No measurements will work here. Looks like Pit1 and Hippy are doing great in this. SN+ and 29* at Pit2

That's one helluva rate. Snow's just started here; strong winds. 31*

Nice to see that narrow weenie band on the Pit. Hopefully the heavy stuff from Scooter through RI can inch back to Gynx and Kevin. Looks like Pawcatuc through SRI is taking it on the chin. 27.4* at the Pit--should be dry there. I can live with that. The probabiliies table looks to have me maxing out between 21-25". Looks like the flakes should be starting here in an hour or so. Winds cranking. I'm expecting very little snow to measure here. This will be blown up the road.

Patiently awaiting first flakes. Look to be about another 1.5-2 hours away. Meanwhile, the wind is already cranking here at Pit2. It's nice to have a blizzard warning--something we're not too accustomed to in GC. Warm. 32*

No models were showing that for last night. Yesterday's 12z and 18z runs were showing start times around 6-7 here at Pit2. They've slowed a little bit--I don't think I'll see flakes here until 8:00 or later.

Nice to wake up to a blizzard warning. Today Snow, mainly after 8am. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 34. Breezy, with a north wind 15 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 40 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 5 to 9 inches possible. Tonight Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 31. Blustery, with a north wind 15 to 20 mph decreasing to 10 to 15 mph after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 7 to 11 inches possible. Wednesday Snow before 11am, then rain and snow between 11am and 1pm, then rain after 1pm. High near 38. West wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible

Everyone should enjoy a Pit2.

Things a bit slower on the NAM. Looks like first flakes don't make it up here before 8:00.

Just got up to Pit2--hoping for the best. Looks like I'll be waking just in time for the first flakes.

lol. Hopefully this only helps the Maine crew.

3km showing over 20" at Pit2 at 42; hasn't stopped yet.

Do you have a NNE pic as well?

Cautiously optismistic......but I'll keep it in check until 12z rolls through.

LOL. I'm off the diet Coke. Polar seltzer is the drink du jour. Coffee is welcome, too.

Bath, ME. 43.9N/69.8W

Agree. That said, the potential in Maine is for a lot to continue during the night as well. But I'll take whatever I can get in the daytime! You should hitch a ride to Pit2.

That same logic should then be applied to the highest amounts maps; those have a 10% chance of happening as well. Those all get celebrated.

Walking a fine line between good and great per GYX. The snowfall forecast is definitely not a final answer, but more the most likely outcome based on the current guidance available. Definitely expect to have to make some shifts to account for track variation, andmesoscale banding. One question still definitely not resolved is whether banding features with extreme snowfall rates will remain off shore or pivot into coastal Maine and New Hampshire. At this point there`s no clear answer to the question. Will have to wait for the storm to take better shape and give mesocale models a better chance to resolve these features.

Pit2 or bust. The maps give me a range of 7-23". The 'most likely' has me at 16" --and about the entire GYX CWA between 13-17". Tonight Cloudy. Snow after midnight. Snow accumulation around an inch. Lows in the upper 20s. Northeast winds 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 80 percent. Tuesday Snow. Additional snow accumulation of 8 to 12 inches. Highs in the lower 30s. North winds 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. Chance of snow near 100 percent. Tuesday Night Snow. Additional heavy snow accumulation. Lows in the upper 20s. North winds 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph, becoming northwest around 10 mph with gusts up to 20 mph after midnight. Chance of snow near 100 percent.

how funny would this be?

It has three more runs to cave. Why rush it?

LOL--indeed it does. Very little talk of wind with this.....non-factor?

That's become my take of late. LOL--TMI. I lived for those maps. In fact, I think the last time I managed to jackpot was when you were making those!

Great to see the love. Let 'em crank.

Over an inch for much of NNE. Jump or cling to the NAM. your choice.
