Can someone look at the 22Z RAP and explain what it's doing between hour 16 and 18. It appears to me the low deepens and reforms closer to the cape, after being further north. Is this a reliable model. Thanks

Take a look at the GYX AFD, maybe it is related?

ONE WILDCARD LATE

TONIGHT AND SUN MORNING IS POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTIVE BANDS OF VERY
HEAVY SNOW TO DEVELOP IN THE COMMA HEAD AS MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES
DECREASE TO 8-9 C/KM. THIS IS REALLY IMPRESSIVE CONVECTIVE
INSTABILITY. THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHERE THESE BANDS MAY
DEVELOP SIMILAR TO FORECASTING LOCATION OF SUMMERTIME CONVECTION
BUT WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE LOCALIZED 3-4"/HOUR SNOWFALL
RATES AND THUNDERSNOW UNDER ONE OF THESE BANDS.

Couldn't drive any farther than Cape Ann. So exhausted that I actually ran off the road. Was trying to make it to Machias, but had already driven a full 24 hours.

Thanks so much to each one of you who so thoughtfully shared their advice as to where I should ultimately go. Going to try to get a quick nap before the blizzard conditions arrive in the early AM. Thanks Again!

Here's a screen shot of a close-up radar image highlighting my specific location.

Edit: Mods...please move this post to the banter thread. I posted it in the wrong thread. So sorry!

Snowfall totals are going to verify, and perhaps be higher in some places, if radar, what has fallen, and where the low seems to be ready to explode are any indication, particularly north of BOS. A few people will get extremely lucky. The couple people clogging this thread with the nonstop overly annoying gloom and doom will say they were correct because of where the low or convective bands or *anything* actually set up, but forecast wise, it's going to be a nice storm and the BOX map from earlier this morning is going to verify. Have fun y'all

Where is this from? Sounds like fun times ahead for someone.

I'm thinking the Local Mets in RI should have kept there ft plus numbers for RI up, seeing I am approaching 6 inches of snow in Coventry RI, and this band is not moving. lol

 

Looks like it's winding down rapidly. The back edge is through Westerly.

Other than tomorrow's wind and bitter cold, some models are suggesting that this is the main event.
