Those are Miller Meh’s here typically. Compares to the mid Atlantic anyways.

Feb 1983 and March 1993 would disagree w/ you.  I say we make a Miller "W" -- those storms that give the max S+ to w/in 5 mi of Weymouth only! :D

Miller As can really tease the Mid-Atlantic weenies, esp. once you get S of DC proper.  How many times does it show 20"+ for RIC, and it ends up 3-4" of IP?  We don't have that high 1000-500 thk/very cold 850 issue "DA MIX" really in the NEUS.

Miller lite?

We need more Miller Cs!  Apparently, those are Sandy-type systems.  Hazel in 1954 and 1938 fall under that.  However, I have been unable to confirm if "Miller C" is a thing officially, but these are unique -- those systems that get a big boost from a TC phase and the TC itself gets the best of both worlds, derived energy from baroclinic and SSTs so they can remain atypical strong much farther N than you'd expect for a TC in our region.

Sandy buried WV up to 36" and up to 48" in VT from the 1804 hurricane and Ginny in 1963 w/ 13" in ME.  Double PT for @CoastalWx here!

They typically mature too quickly and we get leftover banded mess. Not all, but I prefer Miller Bs here. That’s our bread and butter.
