...and both were better than any current Boston TV/radio met....

In the old days we didn't have these models to drive us nuts. So many have forgot the science without the machines. I was an intern at Bos NWS the night before the Blizzard of 78 and the Senior I was with HIT the storm 100%. He didn't say 2 feet (because he didn't want to panic the public) but he knew 2-3 feet were coming.  Thank you all btw because I love the 'analysis' comments. But some of these jokes today have had this ole man ROFL ing

Grew-up watching Jack Chase and Don Kent. Kent lived in N. Wey. Stood-out in the neighborhood because he had an anemometer rooftop. I once tried to visit him, must have been a bad day. Told me to screw! LOL The first true meteorologist, a giant, pioneer for many who followed. 
In his illustrious words. "Friday will be a weather breeder day."

Seen a lot of these in Jan

You can buy, I'll sell. If it happens to be right that will increase uncertainty "chaos" with regard to the H500 capture. We won't know until inside 24 hrs, nevermind 96.

to me the surface reflection is ~100 miles west at that hour, and there is no warm occlusion/core.
