Higher confidence increases for a potential high impact winter storm for Southern New England come Sunday night through Monday night.  There is the potential for snowfall and a rain/snow mix for the South Coast of New England, but currently the idea is a suppressed storm track leading to mostly snow even for the Islands of MA and RI.  EURO is currently the overamplified outlier as we stand today, with the GFS mainly supported as the consensus model of choice.  That and the fact that the EURO ensembles are more in line with the GFS.  So right now potential exists for at least a widespread 3-6" of snowfall, going low for the time being that we can always increase amounts as we get closer and the fact that both ideas are open with the EURO and GFS at odds on track and timing of snowfall.  Also our shortwaves are both one over the Pole and the other over the open Eastern Pacific ocean still, still a lot of time to discern tracks, and right now the models are at odds and this will likely continue for the next three days.

Yup. Been mentioned by James and Scoots et al

 

 

I'm sure it must have been ... lest the contributors be less than adequate - ha.

 

yeah, it may not mean much, but sometimes there are noticeable changes in system handling when stuff becomes less assimilated and actually detected.

Yup. I think we need to temper expectations until the parcels are in reality ville and have data
