This is such an ugly forecast. The conflicting model trends...not just the solutions themselves. 

I still think a decent amount of SNE is going to be in a favorable banding spot at some point during the storm. Hoping that 00z provides some model convergence.  

Agreed.

Euro was awful on the SE convection like we mentioned. Compare it to what is reality. It’s why it was so flat 

I hear ya... but not sure how to extrapolate that better SE convection. On the one hand, we know it can pump up downstream heights. On the other hand, multiple mini surface lows get spit further out east and disrupt the tight mechanics we would have otherwise.

In fact, if you trend 0z-->12z Euro and 6z-->12z-->18z 12k NAM, that southeast convection has improved with every run, but the outcomes up here have been worse.

We'll see. Another nail-biter in a month full of them.

Probably going to end up as its always looked...moderate event.

If this thing weren't skunked up here, there would be an enormous gradient with that confluence....won't be as drastic now because amounts won't be insane.

Has the confluence increased in modeling today

 I feel like the storm off NJ/SNE now is most critical to how everything evolves and the downstream ridge is able to amplify.

Agree

Same issues we discussed from the beginning... occludes too far south... lots of confluence to overcome... and a too-many-chefs situation with the first shortwave and multiple surface lows ejecting east... 

Not having the luxury of waiting for 0z tonight, I told co-workers 4-8 in the Boston area, and I'm nervous going against the mass-hysteria work emails, but the Euro/NAM/GFS trends seem clear across 3-4 cycles. I agree with you the 0z Euro last night seems like a good hedge for now. Now watch 0z NAM go Wolf of Wallstreet on us.

Who are the posters in SW ct / S Central ct

That sw and s ct area usually seems as it's in another world to me

But they are looking like tons of potential 

I am.. I live on the Seymour/oxford line in west central new haven county on Fairfield county line/ also @4seasons in south central near new haven  plus @buildingsciencewx

Confluence. Confluence. Confluence. Tired of hearing the word, frankly. Confluence is gone by 0z tonight. Confluence was the story for past several days through this afternoon. With confluence out, issue now is how much UL downstream ridging we can manage...

Im not SW CT.

 I’m extreme southwest Hartford County..about a mile and a half from the line of extreme northern New Haven county.  Box has me at 8-12, OKX has 12-18 a mile and a half from me.

So, when the models obfuscate and contradict, maybe some good old fashioned observing as of yore might prove illustrative:

--Driving east, home from Springfield this evening, noted the north to northwest horizon lined with sunset along a far border of bluish sky. Indication: the high cloud shield is not advancing far north.

--Flags showed the breeze to be out of the north, as opposed to northeast or east

--My arthritic right hip from decades of disc golf torque is not aching as it was prior to our past 3 March, snow-hole under performers.

Conclusion: The National Weather service has been correct to lower expected snow totals in West Central and Western Massachusetts, and might profit from lowering them still further.

47 inches so far this season.

9.5 last storm

10 the storm before.

Just catching up. Harpoon beer night at yard house in Dedham. Very good place.

 

Incredible difference in guidance. Literally some models spitting out a few inches and some over a foot.

middle ground as usual? Tough to bet against euro... but it def could be wrong.

Are there a bunch of Yard Houses? Feel like I used to go to a place with that name in Back Bay or something.

When i actually think about it (.000001%)

Of the time.  SW ct folks aren't all that bad.

They are like the red headed step children of the subforum, just because of their location relative to the populous that posts.

Im really hoping they get spanked silly and get deformed this storm. Maybe some 20: loli's. OKX is dropping back and chucken em, how about a f'n completion!

 

We have all the money as well :)
