Projected snow totals

Alright, here it is.  I was having fun with polygons at work today and put together what I think New England, focusing on Southern and Central areas, will see from this storm.  I believe The Weather Channel is dubbing this storm "Nemo".

Anyway, look for the snow to begin lightly tomorrow morning in most places.  Little accumulation is expected, generally less than 2" during the daylight hours tomorrow.  Once the sun goes down, the intensity will pick up dramatically, producing periods of 2-3" of snow per hour.  Heavy wet snow is expected closer to the coast, generally inside of 128/I-95, with fluffier snow outside of that.  Snow will continue overnight before tapering off West to East during the day on Saturday.  We should be clear of the snow by 5 PM Saturday afternoon.  Then let the clean up begin.

Her is the map:

If you have to be out and about tomorrow, you will probably want to be home by 4 or 5 PM.  After that, it's going to be rather unsafe on the roads.

I'll have another update tomorrow morning.

Thanks for reading!
