Ok...why is that I'm on the n edge of the QPF that we apparently don't need, and is always too far s, yet I can't muster an inch.

Riddle me that.

 

I kept hearing how the snowgrowth was so great...there won't be a screw job like 1-2...this one is better looking. lol

 

 

The fronto band robbed a lot of moisture...even ORH couldn't pull out a win in this one. The cutoff was def sharper than most thought. ML fronto bands can do funky things and its not easy to predict other than whoever gets into it will do pretty well. Sometimes the screwzone to the NW is more apparent.

 

Sometimes it happens. Other times you'll b**ch your way into 11" of snow like 12/21/09.

This is decent, much better than the cake hole a lot of us got into on the 3rd.

Feel bad for the actual Cape the dry slot is nasty.

OES exposing itself like pickles over me. I'm "just" on the eastern edge of these bands.

They should fill in though, just like last time, they play catch up towards the end. I've been on the edge of the good stuff all night pretty much too, but I'm over 8 inches now. I should pass my total of 10 from last storm.

It may be close, and I still might not hit a foot. Seeing a lot of people calling for an additional 1-3 for this area. Was hoping for a little more than that.

Looks like precip is shutting off here.  Is this it for the night? 

 

These are NWS Taunton's thoughts.

10PM UPDATE...

WSR-88D IMAGERY CONTINUES TO SHOW THE DIMINISHING SW END OF THE

MESOSCALE SNOW BAND ACROSS CT IN THE LAST FEW HOURS...AS IT

BECOMES MORE DIFFUSE BUT HOLDING TOGETHER TOWARD THE NE AND INTO

THE NRN BOS METRO. MESO-GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT BEST BANDING

DUE TO A COMBINATION OF PRE-ESTABLISHED MID LVL F-GEN AND

DEFORMATION AS THE H85 LOW BEGINS TO CUTOFF. FEEL THAT THE CURRENT

ORIENTATION IS PRETTY CLOSE TO WHERE IT WILL STAY AND THAT IT MAY

ACTUALLY DIMINISH IN INTENSITY SOMEWHAT AS A UPSTREAM CONVECTION

TO THE S /WITHIN THE DEVELOPING LOW PRES CENTER OFFSHORE OF VA/

USURPS SOME OF THE MOISTURE AND DYNAMIC FORCING. THEREFORE...AREAS

WHERE THE BAND IS CURRENTLY SETUP AND AREAS SE ARE THE MOST UNDER

THE GUN FOR FURTHER SNOWFALL.
