Well this town goes from like 300' to over 1000' and I'm at 540'.  I'd def take your location on the hill over mine.  1k to 1k I bet there isn't much diff.  Our latitude helps in swfes and maybe we catch the stray streamer but we also get subsidence here more often and are further away from the moisture in ocean storms.  

Yeah the west slope gets probably on averages a solid 8-10” less per year than equivalent elevation on the east slope of ORH hills. The events you clean up really good in are those westerly component flow events at the sfc. They just aren’t super common. The SWFEs are always fun for most since they remove a lot of the orographic effects and it’s usually just latitude/longitude.

I’m honestly hoping someone else gets snow next week. We have a whole season’s worth in PVD. It’s exhausting trying to walk around the city with the snow everywhere. It was amazing to experience history, but the aftermath is not nearly as glamorous. 
 

I’d be happy if it somehow snowed at that snowman guy’s house up north and not down here next week. Let him have the extra foot and a half.

A on pack (mostly semi deep since 12/2)
B on cold (consistent but nothing high end)
C on snow (basically running near avg)
D on intangibles (too much nickle and diming…missing the biggies…little rain is a plus

B-/C+

Similar here. The intangible for me is the lack of qpf. Until last Friday/Saturday there wasn’t much meat in the pack.

me too how can u say no to snow! wtf

I love snow like any other weather weenie, and it was wonderful to watch PVD smash their previous record. However, when you are an essential worker and you need to travel in this stuff, it changes your perspective a bit.

Time to wrap this thing up and call it a season.

We love to see it. 

GFS back south for Thursday/Friday, but has brought back a more tangible low. Probably gone but kind of interesting to watch with a casual eye. This one really trended to nothing lol.

One of you mentioned it earlier, but that little critter on Sunday is also looking more prominent tonight.

Sunday? Is that something new?

Seems like a frontal passage to me that may have a little more juice to it. Not much, but something. It wasn't on my radar until tonight.

It’s a threat but I see a lot of uncertainty in the evolution. It’s in the we watch, but nothing to get excited yet. 

[CoastalWx]

Thursday night is well south imo.

So we shouldn't be forecasting 15-20" in weather apps and snowfall maps yet?

Well, at least it’s over running which is easier to predict at least up here doesn’t have such swings. Seems like the main variable is how much energy comes out of the southwest and when but Tuesday looks interesting.

Yes, lets enjoy the winter tracking while it lasts. Next week sure does look interesting. Then we'll probably have some fake spring and an arctic blast near the end of the month. Of course then in April we risk Fenway Park weather
