Honestly if this thing keeps trending warmer at the coast I'm not going to complain. Tomorrow afternoon/night seems like the time to worry about slick spots here in town.
43.5 25.2
Most outlets in Boston are 1-3 or coating to 1 followed by complete mess tomorrow morning. Changing back and forth all morning into afternoon.
Also expect tomorrow night to be worse.
The thing not being talked about much is the duration. The gfs shows about 28 hours of precip on the 23/24 for this area.
A kitchen sink of sleet snow frz. A classic shit storm.
I have seen some runs that had the 23rd, 26th and 28th/1st all producing but I do think that's probably not to realistic. Hopefully the 28th /1st dominating and has some legs?
Don't mind some freezing rain but if the temps drop quickly it's going to be a shit show pretty much everywhere. Salt in rain is pretty pointless but noway to salt everywhere at once. Rather something crawl up the coast for 24 hours than a fast change over. Kitchen sink storms are a ball breakers.
Depends on a number of factors, timing, amounts, ect, but in general that type of storm causes many more headaches than it's worth. It would be fitting for this winter to have a kitchen sink storm though.
From a personal perspective I really hope Boston doesn't go the entire month of February with out a plowable storm. Even in the rat years of the 80's that was very unusual.
Also this forum needs to bust one soon or heads may explode...
