You really don't get it, huh

No I don't

I must be bridge jumping

Explain it to everyone why surface temps should immediately crash even though 850s are marginal and the surface is torched.

Then, copy and paste it into an email and send it over the good folks at BOX.

Yeah 18z RGEM shows potential if the multiple low centers consolidate on the one closest to benchmark... prolonged and intense into eastern SNE

Those thermal profiles though, wth... I can picture us all glued to the windows Friday afternoon (hopefully earlier) watching for signs of mix...

I suspect you're going to see the thermal profile cool if we keep seeing mid-level temps below 0C with extreme precip...some models embrace the latent cooling a bit more in the lower levels and others don't seem to want to.

I'm on mobile and about to walk into work. I'm sure people here will explain. Although you post daily and it's been explained numerous times this week. 

There are a lot of trials and tribulations when it comes to storms, and this hobby. Learning opportunities. I can tell you first hand.

I swear. You don’t know where Tolland is. He even texted us hours ago it pained him to put Tolland it

Isn't Tolland where I-84 levels out there for a bit before it heads back NE? 

Not that it matters as Ryan is obviously highlighting the high terrain in NE CT (its clear what he's trying to show viewers), its just funny if you aren't really sure where your town is?

The Catskills are going to get destroyed.  Feet for those hill towns at 2,000ft there SW of ALB. 

They won't lose any to rain, IMO.  Should start as pretty much snow there in the high terrain of NY.

Agreed. The same thing happened in March 10. 40”+ above 2k.

what are your thoughts for the southern greens? Im thinking a foot is a good call for Stratton/mt snow

I wouldn't under-sell the elevational aspect of this event either... I think everyone goes to heavy snow if that firehose develops as modeled BUT there's a big difference between 34F pounding snow and 31F pounding snow. 

Sure they both will accumulate but one is going to be a heck of a lot more efficient.  I could see DIT or 1,000ft elevations doing 1"/hr snowfall at 31-32F while places under 500ft are doing a half inch per hour (on 0.1" liquid in the tipper per hour) at 34F.  That type of difference adds up throughout an event like this with big QPF.

Something where the top of Blue Hill has twice as much as anyone else in E.MA just because of the extra 500ft of elevation and temps there just that extra 1C cooler, aiding in accumulation processes.
