This screams like a Norwell/Hanover jack to me. Maybe even interior Cohasset and Marshfield, a couple miles away from the water.

I like my spot in Pembroke for this

Looks like NWS just changed the watches to warnings.

Here's a post with all of the local snow maps, Boston and CT

It's been quite a while since we've had days and days of model consistency so far ahead of a blockbuster storm, without even one model run losing the storm or sending it ots, .

[RUNNAWAYICEBERG]

Skynet is a tick se so the north surge seems to have stabilized today.  

[Cyclone-68]

30 mph winds? Unexpected. Does anyone think the NWS pulls the Blizzard lever?

Winds have never been forecast to be a big deal with this, even along the coast.

That’s why I’m a little surprised

Gotcha. This type of system is different, its moving fairly slow, etc. The experts here can better explain.

I'd be fine with that too. Snow's fine but I'd rather not endure a multi-day outtage out of it along the water here.

How do you think it plays up my way near Concord? When is good for the coast? It’s usually not good here but if there’s a good easterly flow, we can do pretty well.

I’d say at this stage put 12” in your head.

Pretty sunset last night from the parking lot of the Portsmouth traffic circle liquor store as we stopped to get ingredients for delicious Dark Manhattan’s. 
Key feature you’ll likely appreciate- no geese!

They definitely GTFO town this year finally.

Yeah that was somewhat similar as far as amounts go but this looking significantly bigger and much longer duration.  Not mention the cold after this one is long lasting. So no melting  really at all. 

Bigger as in a larger geographic spread? Doesn't really make a difference since Jan 22 hit Boston hard. Given the cold, it will be a good stress test for the T.

48h before the start of the event.

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

I’ll be issuing a first call map later, but general feeling is the floor in SNE east of ORH down into se Mass is like 12”.
