OK give me the money Fozz.  Cause 24 hours ago that flight was $260.  I ain’t paying more than that AND my rental car is now on, so that’s 4 days of no use AND it’s an expensive one.  Maybe I’ll just drive it up to Mammoth Mountain Monday where I’ll see more snow than ALL of you.  

Maybe find some place to score some edibles along the way and calm down

The 18z NBM is wild. Probably overdone.

If were were going to be completely screwed up here, I'd consider it, but it's comfy here. Had the squall earlier, and I'm under the LES from Ontario right now. Getting crushed. Big cold, big snow weekend. Best of luck down there. I think you could get 20 if this keeps amping.

It’s been wild from the get go and globals keep ticking/catching up to it…

Well, keep in mind that the NBM is an aggregate model, an integration of a bunch of different sources. 

I guess it’s kind of tantamount to saying if it’s overdone then that means the majority of the models are overdone. It’s not a single source to be questioned in other words…

Great write up, and no complaints from me about your jackpot zones.

[ineedsnow]

another thing I haven't seen posted.. its not going to take much wind to get a good amount of blowing snow.. this is going to be pure fluff

[ORH_wxman]

The slow increase in QPF is a good sign right now too. In a lot of our higher end storms, they went from lower end “major” (like 8-14/10-15 type) on guidance into that 12-18/15-20 zone as we got inside 3 days. 
 

I agree with @Typhoon Tip that there’s sneaky potential on Monday with the lower level onshore flow being forced into the arctic dome…it’s one of those things that looks like mood snow or an additional 1-3” on guidance but then reality is 20 to 1 hooked aggregates that someone grabs an additional 7-8” on 0.37 of QPF….your snow growth zone is basically from the sfc to 700mb during that time so the lift being mostly low level doesn’t hurt as much as usual. 
 

Im still pretty ambiguous on how that will play out though. If we don’t keep the flow onshore, then it won’t be much but if we do, then things get more interesting.

TEMPLETON, Mass. —

The town of Templeton, Massachusetts, is currently experiencing a shortage of road salt ahead of this weekend's winter storm.

StormTeam 5 predicts the potential for most of the state to get between one and two feet of snow.

 

"Templeton has several loads ordered but will not receive anymore deliveries until mid of next week," police said in a social media post.

Authorities are urging residents to use extreme caution when traveling this weekend, as the town's ability to fully treat the roadways remains limited.

Templeton DPW crews will continue to monitor conditions and prioritize main roads, emergency routes, and public safety areas, according to police.

For now, the DPW said it will plan to pretreat the roads with brine if conditions allow for it.

"We appreciate residents' patience and cooperation as we work through this temporary supply issue," police said.

Yeah I’m liking that on Monday. Stout ENE flow 925-850 with temps 10-15F.
