Can I root for the later starting of whatever will fall that the NAM has for Thursday morning please? Grandparents are taking their granddaughter (And her parents) to Disney and our flight leaves at 7:50 am out of Logan. Seems flights should be OK regardless of what falls, but I'd rather not deal with a slushy drive to KBOS at 5:30 am...

I'm all for snowstorms, even iffy SWFE events the way this winter has been playing out... Just not at 7:00am/12Z Thursday morning. We're taking our daughter to Disney World and that is when our flight leaves Logan. So I'm hoping this one stays really weak or ends up in Hudson Bay...

Cleveland Superbomb Mk. 2?

Rumble of thunder in Newtonville.

New job in the Newmarket area near South Bay has terrible windows, but sure can tell there are pingers out there.

More like wildly inconsistent. He'll 1 hit the Nats on 90 pitches one night, then give up 5 earned over 2.2 to the Pirates the very next game.

This was also about the time of the year you started to hear Manheim Steamroller. I know I have a few of their CD's floating around somewhere...

Of all the days for someone to forget to feed the hamsters running the server...

Blizzard of '78 - I was 4, but I have vivid memories of snowbanks taller than me and sliding down all the snow that had blown between our cars and my dad being home from work all week because nothing was moving. 6/1/2011 - Working in Marlborough, MA at the time watching the cell develop and seeing the board light up when the first reports started coming about the tornado in just as I was leaving for the day. Darkest western sky I can remember seeing from any daytime storm so far away. Hurricane Gloria - I think I watched Dick Albert and The Weather Channel non-stop as a young 11 year-old the days leading up to the storm. We had a huge yard with no overhanging trees, so I spent a lot of the storm outside in the wind once we lost power as we were on the dry side of the storm. Jan-Feb 2015 - I am putting this stretch of weather in as I was living in the Cleveland Circle area at this time with our 7 month-old daughter. Watching the snowbanks get higher, and higher, and higher was amazing. Just nowhere to put the snow by the end. That combined with trying to push a BoB jogging stroller around after parking who knows how far from our apartment because of all the semi-abandoned cars buried by the snowbanks. Ice storm 2008 - Living in Maynard right on the Assabet River at the time just on the edge of the accretion. The hillside above where we lived was covered in ice and bending trees, but down where we were, it was OK. Drove to the office in Marlborough to find branches down everywhere and no power. Had no idea until I got home later how close we were to not having power for a week. Honorable mentions: 8/5/2015 hail storm and a fun drive down Beacon St in Brookline coming back from daycare with daughter in the car. 12/14/2007 snow gridlock. I was in school at LSC during the Perfect Storm and April Fools, so I didn't experience them directly, only from afar. Bob doesn't really make my list as for where we lived, it was a rainy, (really) windy day and we didn't even loose power.

What? Nobody awake to post a TS Watch has been posted for the Cape and the Islands?

So close.... Still would be pretty breezy Friday night into Saturday for anyone east of ORH and especially the Cape and the Islands.

Was going to post this in the main thread, but figured it's better posted here. NHC waiting to lead the 11:00pm news with the upgrade back to a Cat 3 after leaving it at 110mph for now?

Yeah, the TS conditions possible Friday night was a surprise on the point and click this evening.

Usually I'd be all over if something was brewing for mid to late next week... ...but I'm going to the Cape for a vacation with some of our extended family...

Back deck photo in Newtonville. 15" or so on the deck? Might be somewhat contaminated by trees. Picked up a lot more snow after the report at 2:35 report of 13.3" in Newton per NWS.

Some of the best S+ of the entire storm here in Newtonville.

Pretty legit S+ with 1/4 visby in Newtonville.

wind cranking up as well. Hard to tell vsby at my location in the dark

Good morning. Middle of the street was still wet here in Newtonville, but coatings were creeping in along the edges. Everything else has a pretty good coating already. 34.3*
