Tulip Trouncer Snow Storm

[amarshall]

Some of the weather models are saying big hit on Friday night

The GFS model says 1+ ft in Boston.

Even if it is rain instead of snow, the wind is predicted to blow hard right through the weekend. It figures as MA cod season opens Friday.

Sounds like April 1 will be a good day to attend the Tuna Hearing at NMFS in Gloucester from 1-3 PM and fight for our quota not being reduced. The cod will be there next week.

looooong way out to be predicting a foot of snow. Noone locally seems to be too worried about it at the moment, and those people get it right more often than not--regarding precipitation at least, not marine forecasts.

Crocus crusher!

1 pm weather models showing a coastal hugger. (with a chance to go out to sea)

If this was December the local tv mets would be hyping the **** out of this storm. Now that it's not fun to have a snowstorm you won't hear a thing about this until Thursday.

12 Z Euro still has a major snowfall inland. GFS and EURO tracks still almost identical. East winds will allow lower accums at coast…piles up inland along a coastal front. This storm looks like it is going to bomb. Explosive pattern.

THIS I can handle, being inside of 128. We'll see if this is how it pans out.........

Well i've flip flopped worse than the weathermen but this was NOT forecasted.

No it certainly wasn't. I had a feeling something like that was going to happen since as late as Thursday morning the storm itself still hadn't formed....I am certainly no meteorologist but I would think it's hard to predict precipitation for a storm that you know is coming in under 24 hrs but that doesn't exist on a map yet. Whatever from Boston down the coast it's all rain at this point (hopefully it stays that way) we got about 2 inches in the city.
