Ha true... not set in stone they do well in this one either out there.  Hudson Valley is a big wildcard, like most of SNE.

I would still rather be there for this with the primary moving thru and being away from the water.

Good point, but even loop the EURO 850mb temps and you can see a mix of both ideas.  H85 temps warm from 6-12z but then it occludes and holds steady from 12-18z before falling quickly after that.

Loop a bunch of model 850mb temps and you'll see that sort of evolution.  It's not a lot of warmth but an extra 1-2C at 850mb will make a huge difference.  Very interesting forecast for sure!

Totally agreed...that is why I think we could see rain to snow to rain type deal in places. The degree of upward vertical motion which seems to coincide when profiles are marginal enough for snow indicate snow when things are going wild. This could be really problematic b/c it would be extremely wet but accumulating very quickly. For some stupid reason Oct 2011 keeps coming in my mind with this

James will be the tail on Winnie the Pooh's kite.  

I considered going to the family house in Falmouth for this but Buzzards Bay won't be very exciting so I would end up having to drive 30 minutes to at least South Cape Beach in Mashpee to take it in.

We are definitely warming aloft overnight. But it’s not like a SWFE where temps keep climbing. These will eventually cut off late tonight and the mid level air mass becomes stale. So it’s all about that stale air mass that we have to overcome. All modeling is showing rapid cooling aloft around 18z.

I wonder if how things tilt will play a significant role with regards to the warming. This is where I wish I was good at the calculus...and knew how to apply all those equations. It seems like a slight difference in how the system is tilted will make a big difference in the degree of warmth that works in...both at the sfc and llvl's.
