One after another and another:

Several areas over 70 mph wing gust now. Will get stronger as the Low gets closer to Mass.

Very amazing snow band, incredible actually.

75 mph wind gust was reported 2 miles west southwest of Bedford, Mass.

Reminds me of a freakin eye-wall of a hurricane.

Very cool sat image of the phasing

very large, takes a few to load

Eastford, CT up to 17" of snow. The 2' mark isn't too far off for several towns in Southern New England

Within the peak tide cycle now, reports of water entering some homes in Weymouth, MA.

T.R.O.U.B.L.E.

Check out these DOT Cameras

KBOS is currently gusting to 76 mph

Folks, I have followed and studied weather for over35 year, and I tell you this is amazing stuff. Check this out. The latest snow accumulation flume for Boston. A big Jason WOW!!!!!!



The mean average is the dark like and is steady at 30 inches now. Up from 24 inches last run. LOL, what did I tell you. We still will have to wait and see if it verifies.

19.5 officially in Hamton, Connecticut. A whopping 6" last hour as the snow changed over to the dry fluffy snow.
76 mph gust just reported at Boston's Logan Airport.

NWS upped the potential total for downtown Boston. Up to 31" for tonight and tomorrow combined

LOL, looks like the snow bands are slowing down. Could the storm be trying to stall. Some have called for that scenario.

RGEM takes it slowly northeast to about 150 miles east of BOS by 12z with a wicked looking N-NE gradient over southern New England. Would expect gusts to 70-80 mph inland and 80-90 mph on the coast the way this is winding up (from NNE).



The deformation band would likely be extended northeast to run about 50 miles inland west of PWM to west of BOS by 06z and then would probably dissolve into the general banding of the storm later in the overnight. Some astronomical snowfall totals are possible, would not rule out 40-50 inch totals in some places close to this deformation band but also the storm is so wound up that some narrow dry slots are probably going to develop between bands. With the blowing and drifting this may not be very easy to measure by Sunday morning.

Official snowfall totals map, interactive. nice.

Downtown Boston

Wowza e........ thanks for all of those links/pics, etc.......

TWC in NYC is saying about 7.5" there.....(per the ruler...lol)


CT has several areas of over 30" totals, so far...

This was awesome to see happening. I have witnessed something I have never seen before....or perhaps just never looked.

Dynamic tropopause on top left. Incredible northern stream phase interaction with the warm front. A lot of it is due to the odd upper level interactions...just don't see a setup like this very often. Note the rapidly forming PV strip over New England.

Connecticut seems to be the bulls eye. This radar capture was very impressive as far a snow goes. This is the area where they had 6" per hour snow fall rate for a short time.

Morning e !!! So far, it does not look like the system is in much of a hurry, to move on......

Guess you ain't getting out and go to the corner store to get some milk in this mess

Good morning San

Now we get to talk about the next one. Severe weather today and tomorrow. Beginning in Texas. They will have a decent Triple Point setting up. Could be interesting. More so tomorrow along the Gulf Coast States

Good page, with lots of NY DOT webcams........

Including the Long Island Expressway, with stranded motorists...

grid lock

Boston

NYC

This storm was a BUST. LOL

This sucks.

House on the coast. Road washed out by storm surge. House iced over from the blowing waves and mist.



This is in Hull. Read it on the Internets so its got to be true.

Actually, I did see a live shot on CNN

Dang, this blizzard sure does look like an hurricane.

okay...lots of good pics, BUT....the house is freakin amazing!!!

CT kicked azz, 6 of the top 7 snowfall totals.

Blop, WTH is everyone?

Damn Aug, your on a roll

Morning...... TX is in the hot spot, this morning....went to bed, with strong storms rolling in, up in north TX, and woke up to Tornado Warning in Central TX....

warning has since expired, and watch is in place.......

Was looking for info on a report of major home damage in Luella, TX (from SPC).....while on the hunt, I ran across this cool "google" page, showing Emergency and Disaster info, on an interactive map.....to include 2 small earthquakes in CA, overnight...... Looks like there is a mobile version, for peeps who want to stay "connected".....

MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0135
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0512 AM CST SUN FEB 10 2013

AREAS AFFECTED...CENTRAL/SOUTH-CENTRAL TX

CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 29...

VALID 101112Z - 101245Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 29 CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...TORNADO WATCH 29 CONTINUES...WITH A CONTINUED TORNADO
POTENTIAL MAINLY ACROSS EAST-CENTRAL TX ASIDE FROM DAMAGING
WINDS/SOME HAIL.

DISCUSSION...SEVERAL SEMI-DISCRETE SUPERCELLS HAVE PERSISTED/MOVED
NORTHEASTWARD OVERNIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL TX...AND PRIMARY POTENTIAL
FOR A TORNADO/HAIL WILL PERSIST IN THE PREDAWN HOURS WITH THESE
STORMS IN THE PRESENCE OF STRONG SHEAR AND AN INCREASINGLY MOIST
LOW-LEVEL ENVIRONMENT. SUCH A THREAT MAY ESPECIALLY BE THE CASE IN
THE SHORT-TERM WITH A SUPERCELL CURRENTLY LOCATED 35-40 MILES EAST
OF TEMPLE TX NEAR THE FALLS/ROBERTSON COUNTY LINE AS OF 1110Z.
HOWEVER...THESE SEMI-DISCRETE TSTMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE OVERTAKEN
BY/MERGE WITH THE SQUALL LINE NOW CROSSING NORTHEAST/CENTRAL TX
THROUGH 12Z-14Z...WITH DAMAGING WINDS AS THE PRIMARY CONCERN.
FARTHER SOUTH INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL TX...TSTM COVERAGE/VIGOR MAY REMAIN
TEMPERED BY A RESIDUAL ELEVATED MIXED LAYER AND NEUTRAL MID-UPPER
FORCING FOR ASCENT. FARTHER EAST/LATER THIS MORNING...MORE OF A
TORNADO THREAT COULD MATERIALIZE ACROSS EAST TX INTO LA...SUCH THAT
A NEW WATCH/TORNADO WATCH UPGRADE COULD BE NEEDED.

..GUYER.. 02/10/2013

Tornado Watch has been well expanded, to the east......



URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
TORNADO WATCH NUMBER 31
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
700 AM CST SUN FEB 10 2013

THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A
TORNADO WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF

SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS
WESTERN...CENTRAL...AND NORTHERN LOUISIANA
EAST TEXAS

EFFECTIVE THIS SUNDAY MORNING AND AFTERNOON FROM 700 AM UNTIL 200
PM CST.

TORNADOES...HAIL TO 1.5 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND
GUSTS TO 75 MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE
AREAS.

THE TORNADO WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 105 STATUTE
MILES EAST AND WEST OF A LINE FROM 60 MILES NORTH NORTHEAST OF
MONROE LOUISIANA TO 55 MILES SOUTH SOUTHEAST OF LUFKIN TEXAS.
FOR A COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE THE ASSOCIATED WATCH
OUTLINE UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU1).

REMEMBER...A TORNADO WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR
TORNADOES AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN AND CLOSE TO THE WATCH
AREA. PERSONS IN THESE AREAS SHOULD BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR
THREATENING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND LISTEN FOR LATER STATEMENTS
AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS.

OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 29...WW 30...

DISCUSSION...LOOSELY-ORGANIZED E TX SQLN LINE WITH EMBEDDED
SUPERCELLS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE GENERALLY ESEWD...WHILE STORMS
WITHIN THE LINE MOVE MORE RAPIDLY NEWD ALONG IT. THE LOW-LVL WLY
FLOW IN THE WAKE OF THE SQLN SHOULD CONTINUE TO SLOWLY WEAKEN.
THIS...COUPLED WITH EXISTING STRENGTH OF DEEP SWLY SHEAR /AOA 60
KTS/ AND THE CONTINUED NWD SPREAD OF RICH LOW-LVL MOISTURE INTO FAR
E TX/LA... SUGGESTS THAT STORMS WITHIN THE LINE MAY REMAIN
SEMI-DISCRETE...ENHANCING THE RISK FOR OCCASIONAL TORNADOES IN
ADDITION TO DMGG WIND/MARGINALLY SVR HAIL. SOME RISK ALSO WILL EXIST
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW SUPERCELLS AHEAD OF THE SQLN LINE NEAR
THE SABINE RVR EWD INTO CNTRL LA AS SFC HEATING FURTHER DESTABILIZES
REGION/OVERCOMES EML CAP INVOF DIFFUSE WARM FRONT.

AVIATION...TORNADOES AND A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL
SURFACE AND ALOFT TO 1.5 INCHES. EXTREME TURBULENCE AND SURFACE
WIND GUSTS TO 65 KNOTS. A FEW CUMULONIMBI WITH MAXIMUM TOPS TO
400. MEAN STORM MOTION VECTOR 25040.
