I’m starting to hate these super cold thermals set ups. I feel like unless you’re outside of the band the snow growth is just putrid. Is that b/c the DGZ is just so shallow or more if a product of the lack of sufficient lift into the DGZ?

Usually the latter. I mean there can be some huge lift in those bands. Pop that deep omega in the DGZ with high supersaturation and you’ll produce huge feathery dendrites.

I'm not sure what to hope for it this point....I lose to se MA two years in a row in la nina....and NNE for two el ninos

Maybe divine intervention, IDK....I'm at a loss-

Fates will line up for you at some point.  NNE definitely losing out on this one.  Have not seen one flake here today, just a bone chilling wind.

To say the alignment of this band over eastern RI is rare would be an understatement…

Yeah, for the last half hour I've been thinking ... Am I, am... I in a death band?

Even this morning, the dry slot was like, Charlestown to scituate.

I thought it was because the DGZ was too high, like above 700

I think in this storm the DGZ is rather low but it’s crazy deep.

I have always hated the frigid events...ask @CoastalWx....CJ specials.

This is why I was rooting for it to track over the cape. Hate CFs near PYM

Always get caught with going too crazy ratios outside of banding…gotta remember this next time.

Gotcha thanks. That makes the most sense.
