The NAM has slowly been figuring it out over the past 24 hours.  Last night's 00z and 06z backed off quite a bit on QPF up north but the 12z/18z/00z have now been going in the right direction. 

A couple more runs and the QPF will match the EURO.

Yea but didn’t the euro blast a warn layer all the way into southern Vermont?  Btw I’m up in Killington this weekend so I have a rooting interest.

12-15:1

Yeah that's what I used for my forecast.  13-15:1 and 0.7-1.0" QPF... 8-14"? 

The band location in NNE will be key.  Climo wise I do like Southern Adirondacks, through S/C VT and into the Lakes Region of NH and then IZG and you.  Other guidance though has it further north.  But since I do think the low will track a little further south than models show (not much, but a little) due to the depth of the low level cold...I think the former is more likely.

Man, I am surprised that the EURO is giving me 1.9" of QPF so late in the game....

The trend has definitely been down over the last few runs. Pretty classic trend honestly, rushing out to big QPF then settling towards reality.

Will was banging 1-1.5” days ago, and that’s still the best forecast for all/mostly snow zones I think.

I don’t like to deviate too far from climo ratios until I see the 20:1 whites of its eyes.

Yup.  And I do think someone could see some high ratio snow in this, most likely under any meso-band that forms.  That's when you can get into 20" out 1" of liquid.  But you could also get 12" of just old fashioned storm snow and it's pretty much the same effect.

Yeah, I'm thinking those ranges as well, Also i'm expecting some tics back SE (We hope) We're getting close on some of these runs to getting H85 into the +2 + 4c zone for a 3 or so hr period, So that would cut into some totals with sleet if its not at the height of the storm where we may be able to wash that out.
