Final call being made now, we are going to have a sharp cutoff in Tolland county, the county with the most high stakes forecast .. probably 6" just south of 84, then taper off quickly north of there

Probably got just around 1” in that.

Yup. Limped to around 2” in that, it’s the only snow I’ve had

Straight outta Tolland

crazy mother fucker named Kevin wood

from the gang called weenies with attitude

When the snow’s off I got a sawed off

My county not in a warning and bodies get hauled off

You too NWS if you fuck with me

South Coast Ma is gonna have to come get me 

Off Ginxy’s ass…that’s how I’m going out

For the punk motherfuckers that say I’m always slanting out 

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

I mean, the euro is great here, and most models have now moved into at least 2-3” here, and the wildcard of possible ocean assist adds some intrigue.

.3 liquid could easily get us 4-5” of snow if it isn’t arctic sand.

we’ll see what happens

They used to be far more relevant.  The last 20 years they always seem to be behind the 8 ball. EDIT: Also, we've had the weenie emoji forever,  isn't it time for something else... maybe a clam?

Your pain is clearly animating your innate creativity.  Therefore the beatings shall continue.

Well I’m expecting 7-8” here so no tools will be needed

That’s a best case scenario IMO and taken verbatim his map has me right on the 6” line. I’d be thrilled if he’s right.

Why are folks so obsessed with what BOX does? They aren’t the official voice, and usually are always in catchup mode. Will anyone be shocked when they have warnings for all of CT tonight? 

Box is THE OFFICIAL VOICE LOL...

The simulated reflectivity of the HRRR goes to show how fickle this really will be tonight and how important being able to get under banding will be.

[Typhoon Tip]

Some pretty heavy rad returns smeared out across S. Ontario pressing into Upstate NY.   

Likely to be an impressive radar display later on coming into the Capital District/SE NY, and as is typical ... you'll look at that and wonder how the hell could that miss.   It would be something if one of these times ...just once, it didn't

Others have chimed in already, but the reason why I defer to BOX for forecasts and warnings:

• They do this for a living, are trained, and focus their entire workday on generating forecasts.
• They have access to forecasting tools and data that most of us do not.
• They have experience with our climatology and know how to apply that to model generated forecasts that may get overlooked.
• They aren't generating forecasts with the requirement to generate ratings, page views, clicks, or advertising revenue.

Just my opinion... They provide a valuable service to us, even those of us who have the interest in making our own forecasts. I don't mind the more conservative approach to their forecasting compared to what you get everywhere else these days.  Some irony there...

[CoastalWx]

18z hrrr tickles north. Almost looks like QPF is a bit more spread out vs sharp gradient. Might be a good sign.

[TalcottWx]

Let's avoid getting into a debate over the NWS; Snow.

I will always go to the Box discussions for a little sanity check after all the hype, innuendo and hysteria that bounces about in certain quarters here. Doing so is like putting a kid in time out, taking a deep breath, and taking stock of things. Sometimes blending Box with the outlooks of cooler heads here gives one a pretty good assessment of what's to come.
