...WINTER STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH
SATURDAY AFTERNOON...

The National Weather Service in Taunton has issued a Winter Storm
Watch, which is in effect from Friday morning through Saturday
afternoon.
* LOCATIONS...Interior northern Massachusetts north of the Mass
  Pike.

* HAZARD TYPES...Snow sleet and freezing rain.

* ACCUMULATIONS...Potential for snow accumulation of 6 inches or
  more with greatest risk over the higher elevations near the
  Route 2 corridor. Up to a tenth of an inch of ice accumulation
  is also possible with locally up to one quarter inch over the
  higher elevations.

* TIMING...Snow developing Friday morning and may mix with or
  change to sleet and freezing rain Friday night. Precipitation
  will be heavy at times late Friday and Friday night.

* IMPACTS...Snow and ice will make for hazardous travel
  conditions, especially later Friday into Friday night. The
  accumulation of wet snow and/or ice on trees and power lines
  may result in some power outages.

* VISIBILITIES...one quarter to one half mile at times.

* CONFIDENCE...Precipitation types and accumulations are uncertain
  as the area will be close to the snow/ice/rain line. Where this
  zone sets up will determine how much snow and ice accumulates

4" seems low for my area.  I'd say we're in a for a solid foot on this one, if we can get some mid-level magic. 

I'd def take the over on 4" there...but I can understand being a bit conservative with still over 2 days to go. It wouldn't take a huge shift to make it a much lower impact. On the flip side, it also wouldn't take a huge shift on guidance to make it a much higher impact for those on the line in the BOS area.

Yea. I don't know if this is even something dynamics can overcome. With this stronger system and closer approach, per the 12z euro those east winds at the surface are really going to crank. I think the boundary layer will be flooded with maritime air in Boston, and points north and west of there. The trick is finding where that effect is offset by the dynamics and it's probably somewhere near KORH, and draw a line northeast from there. 

Northeast MA will get smoked.

You might be in one of the better spots in MA for this one outside of the usual elevation zones N of the pike. NE MA has the most resistance to warming in the mid-levels with that high setup.

These always tend to disappoint south of the pike... something will go wrong somewhere.... more than likely.

Im expecting flakes to start with a flash to heavy rain 

There will be some sleet up towards you..just a question of how long it lasts before the flip to heavy heavy urban flood inducing/monsoon like downpours.

not worried about the strong east winds? just asking

I wouldn't worry about that where he is...maybe within 5-10 miles of the coast. Only an issue if precip is light...but then again, if it is, then it wasn't worth the trouble anyway.

If mid-levels are cold enough and the precip is there, he will get smoked. 925mb is really cold.
