Probably late to the news but didn't know Polar Wx added new AI-GFS; GraphCast - GFS model, and the NOAA version goes operational Dec. 17th... Its 18z run looks similar to Euro products for Sunday... 

Link below...

mid level magic probably from Kevin to ORH over to Boston.

yeah, these love to amp up the fluff factor with sloped 700-500mb FGEN on the NW side of the precip shield. that would likely verify 4-6” along that corridor

 I think the 18z was ready early this evening   Will be interesting to see how quickly Ncep releases it starting on 17th?

32° and light snow in Hartland, roads are slush covered, looks like maybe an 8th to a quarter of an inch of snow so far.

Just got back in from walking the dog......I had thought the roads would have been better than they were earlier.  They were actually much worse  Probably because the rain had let  up so it was freezing more quickly.  Almost went down twice.  Even the dog was stepping cautiously--not one of her strong suits! 

35* zr-

 

EDIT:  from what I've experienced here and the earlier post that was about the sidewalks in PWM, I'm surprised they don't have any type of SPS up along the coast.

Nice shot of snow for the SVT resorts. 

9.2" so far at home. Residual light stuff still going.

Classic west slope VT storm. That west and southwest flow does great there.

as we close in on 14th ... just be leery of the NAM NW bias/amplitude issues beyond 36 hours

It’s definitely nice to see a solid euro run, however, the gfs and icon along with the gefs being a whiff should give everyone pause, especially given what we’ve seen in this flow 

Yeah I’d like to see the gfs start moving towards the Euro and Canadian tonight and tomorrow

First time I've had an underperformer here. Still learning the climo here.

Yeah, big snows for northern areas. 

[NW_of_GYX]

3.25” wrapping up now but still light snow, stayed snow the whole event.

The new RRFS handled the temps well with this. Be interesting to see how that model performs this season in places that see frequent marginal setups
