Hi faithful blog readers! I’m going to keep this relatively short, because there is not a great deal of change in the thinking I expressed on the previous blog entry. As expected, the computer models waiver back and forth one way and another way with the storm track and precipitation\/snow amounts regarding the developing storm. Sparing you the technical psychobabble, what I will say is that I still feel that the fast-movement of this storm and the fact I believe the models are overdoing the precipitation amounts, I am going to keep my snow totals a bit lower than the ones you’ll see on TV. I have bumped them up a touch since the last update to 6-12 inches for most of the Boston area. There is a slight chance that a few spot heavier amounts can occur underneath very heavy snowbands as a deepening storm passes just southeast of Cape Cod. This may also result in thundersnow (a few flashes of lightning & muffled thunder rumbles during the heaviest snow Wednesday morning).<\/p>\n
The timeframe for this storm: Snow starts 3am Wednesday, plus or minus 2 hours, and ends 9pm Wednesday,\u00a0 plus or minus 2 hours. The heaviest snow should fall during the morning. Mixing and some rain should be confined to the Cape & Islands, and possibly the immediate coast to the south of\u00a0 Boston, due to warmer air off the ocean. Elsewhere, colder air should support mainly snow.<\/p>\n
Look for updates tomorrow as we get closer to the event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
