Just talking to Bob and Matt. The radar orientation looks a lot like those better NAM and Euro runs. East and west orientation, not just sliding SE out to sea 

That band is gonna get close to you

I mean, you and several others called it. There were certainly flags. The models blow, but sometimes there is truth buried in what’s being shown

Ya this is def verifying way north like those NAM and Euro runs that were north, dry slot is in SWCT.. Congrats up north you will do well.. I'm happy with my 6-8" 

Looking at the regional radar, looks like that slot is starting to fill in....its going to be close for us....maybe a few surprises over the next 4-6 hrs

Appreciate it man, glad to see you’re getting the goods.

Hopefully everything pans out. Been a while since we had a lot of things go right here. Still have to verify 

Absolutely.  I feel ya.

I’m watching that stuff in eastern NY. If it holds together, that’s going to slide across most of MA even probably up towards Ray and Boston. 
 

it’s getting it far enough east before it eventually dives SE

So, can you/we all learn from this at lead? 

[Typhoon Tip]

Such high ratios, high stack efficiently

I remember seeing that and thinking to myself that I am glad Friday is not a day I go into Branford lol. 

[Thunderblizzard]

Poundage is over, but still coming down at a good clip. Beautiful out there.

Yeah if it doesn’t weaken that will be decent.

5.5 Easton CT.

Light snow.

[WeatherX]

Starting to see a pivot with the back edge here, hopefully can keep it going for a while. Measured 4.5” new which takes me to 9” for December. It’s been a December to remember with the cold and snow here. Let’s get it in Jan and Feb!

Yeah and I’m not trolling the good officer . But man when I saw that yesterday morning my Christmas goose came early . I knew heavy heavy snow would be north of models 

[Sey-Mour Snow]

Most impressed with SECT amazing rates of 4-5” per hour.. 

[FlashFreeze]

18° and moderate snow, 2.75” so far in Pleasant Valley, just heard from a friend in Westfield MA they have had 1.5” since 7:30

[CoastalWx]

Anybody on Block isIand? Probably 4”/hr

Yep. Keep those mid levels intact as long as we can and it bodes well for us further east for higher totals. Players into the transfer of primary to secondary off coast. No sign of that yet either.

The RAP, NAM and HRRR do backfill and provide another 2 to 4 for Fairfield County. Hopefully its correct.
