RGEM would be a toaster bath. It's still 6-12" east of ORH, but it's just a moderate snow storm.

6z NAM would be a good storm though.

Something doesn't feel right with me on this one for those massive totals. 

Yeah I agree. I'm certainly not comfortable with the super big amounts currently.

I'm honestly surprised more people aren't mentioning this as potentially being a Cape and SE MA special..... 

I could see mid level magic well west. My issue is that if the main CCB is over the Cape, and you have a 15-20 mile wide band to the west, someone is going to get lower totals in between. Euro was a crusher, but these subtle shifts E or W will really have an effect.

That would imply it's not a big deal NW of that...doubt it ends up that extreme. I'd be surprised if inside of 495 got less than 8 inches....but I'm also not biting on huge amounts yet. There's def a chance the best   Banding stays a bit east. RGEM shows that danger. 

Hopefully we get a rapid convergence of solutions at 12z to remove some of the uncertainty.

A 15-20 mile band to the west, Ray has been meditating on this band to the point of being consumed By it and mitch's 3" deform Last Storm.

 

Wilmington has A much better Shot at 7" then 24"+

Well, just to confirm what I am saying: difference between a moderate and major snowstorm.

They thought about blizzard warnings for areas this morning. I think a 6-12" would be a bust in many eyes here and in Taunton. Interesting to see multiple shifts confirm the big totals there. Also important to keep in mind Harvey is fully on board.

Another thing to explain further regarding potential blizzard warnings: BOX has been very hesitant to release those outside of our most major storms. Yes, plenty of blowing and drifting could occur with 6-12", but BOX usually doesn't throw around the blizz warn for that.

I'd be shocked if Ray sees less than a foot. But he definitely has a better shot at 12" than 24".

I can't see a mitch situation. That thing rotted over his head for how many hours? I don't see bands staying that stagnant on modeling for a significant duration over one location on any guidance. 

Bottom line, QPF is a load of horse sh*t in the end. We'd be sitting pretty no matter what in the mid levels. 

Definitely east of ORH. I don't even buy warnings that far west to NY State border. I don't get it at all. Inside of BOS could easily be limited to 6-12" with a 12-24" region near the canal, se ma, and the cape.

Very weird for me to see BOX so all in despite lack of overall consensus. Their confidence builds mine. But if Harvey was on the 6-12" train, I'd be completely off the bandwagon.

Go w your gut and the models

This is a 965 Monster , its also a cape storm imo.

Maybe maybe we see 2-4 hrs under a narrow deform band, nobody forecasts being under one for about #$/@ reasons

Annnnnd the GFS just took the lowered the monster 10mb in one run at 06z.

These are just things to watch. Nobody needs to jump or only say "Cape storm." We'll see what 12z brings. 

As I previously explained.....

I am talking about the difference between a moderate and major storm for E MA outside of SE MA and Cape. If the major snowfall ends up down there. It's a Cape storm.

GFS did not change the qpf disruptions.  Looks nearly identical where it brings the goods.   NAM was similar..  RGEM went a bit in the meh direction.   I would not change a thing from my thinking of 12+ in general ORH east with the possibility of spectacular amounts mbedded.

There isn't that huge of a difference between 6-12 and something like 10-16. Harvey's 12+ is for a pretty narrow zone. If you get 10 inches instead of 13, it's not really much of a bust...not unless you are secretly buying these runs that give you 18+.

I was speaking in regards to some of the astronomical amounts being thrown around it just doesn't seem like a slam dunk.

They aren't a slam dunk. Someone will prob get over 18 but just don't go into the storm thinking it will be you. Some lucky peeps in a band will get it on like 0.93" of qpf.

If anyone is getting astro Amounts i would look toward the cape, they are the favorites for a 2' should it materialize, otheres have a *shot* but nobody forecasts off of a 1 in 10 chance

I would say 12-18 on cape w 2' lolli's

10-15 (+).for carver To plympton Down to fairhaven and over to pym.

Lowell to Orh to S RI 6-12 w isolated higher totals possible

West of that 4-8
