That is definitely not true at all, so it's weird an actual met from Accuweather would say that.
The GFS came east, but it was the western outlier, so that's pretty much meaningless.
The Canadian went well west.
The Euro slightly ticked east, but so little that it's not even worth calling an east or west or north or south shift.
Little disappointed eastern areas and seacoast due for jackpot. Rather see it up in ski country.
Better then nothing though that is for sure!

Still a lot of time left and anything can happen as the energy isnt even over land yet. What you REALLY dont want to see is an eastern tick with the 00z tonight, that could be really bad news.

Well big eastern tick with the 00Z GFS tonight. Maybe 6-10 for VT if that. Maybe the ECMWF is better?? I hope so cause not looking good in the GFS right now. Some snow is better than none, but big swing from what it had been showing so far.

Sunday River is in the jackpot. Even more than the white mountains.

The 00z Euro just spat out a solution that, if it's correct would be an absolutely historic snowstorm.
Not in terms of huge amounts of snow in any given area, but in terms of a large snowfall over a positively massive area, as in >= 10" from Virginia to Quebec = WOW.

As of now, higher heights in eastern Canada, more amped ridge, further west block = more liquid, slower, and more west this morning. We are getting inside 48 hours so time to go to meso models.
Deform bands looking to set up best in the Catskills, NW CT, Berks, and southern VT.
For those trying to ski Weds.
Sections of NY and CT could be looking at 3-4" per hour rates (possibly Feb 2013 type rates of 6" per hour+) for an extended time Tuesday afternoon. Get out Monday night or first thing Tuesday (before 8am) or youre screwed.
Shit goes wild Tuesday afternoon for southern New England. Boston will be a nightmare by Tuesday evening, probably about 6" down and absolutely cranking 1-2" per hour rates+. Wind along the shore looking to be 50+. Legit blizzard
The wrap around is going to crank up and down the spine for days following. Would not be shocked to see everyone from K north grab an extra 12"+ between Weds night and Friday am. Could be one of those 4' weeks for Jay.
Forget skiing for a second. Heavy wet snow in CT, RI, and eastern Mass + this = disaster (NAM maybe a bit over modeled but this is also in knots)

So your saying the moguls at Sundown are going to be fucking epic?

I would be surprised if Sundown has power to run the lifts to be honest. The Nemo-like deform bands and winds that are going to hit CT (even NW CT) and Mass are going to be insane.
Given all the wind of the previous few days it has probably weakened some trees/limbs, then throw snow and more wind on and it could be bad.

It can't be. Breitbart is reporting it.

Maybe those bumps they just seeded get completely buried? You need to be on duty during the storm to ski them to keep that from happening!

Crazy thing about this storm is there was such perfect agreement with the models a few days ago, now that we're closer to the event, there's little agreement other than the fact there's going to be a big snowstorm. This is completely opposite from normal, as usually there's dispersion ahead of an event, and as the event nears the models tighten up.
Basically, regardless of where you live, if you want big snow, there's a map for that! There's also a model (or two) that will screw you.
At this moment, based on the confluence of models, if I were pressed, I'd guess Berks to s.VT to s.NH ski areas will be the biggest winners. Likewise, if pressed, I'd guess ADK is most likely to get screwed, followed by Jay Peak, but again, everyone gets some snow.
