I also think the coastal secondary may be north of Long Island, NY and not off the coast until it crosses the coast near Plymouth, Ma.
So, it will snow very hard for the first half of the storm, due to the high vertical lift or omega, perhaps around 8 to 10 inches around Alton and around 12 inches or a bit more near Black Cat Island. But, the warm layer will cause mixing and that will pack the snow down some or at least make it wetter.
Time will tell, but I think the NWS will be making mentin of this soon.

Hi R2B and CLA.
I am getting conflicting information for NOAA and from all the stations down here in Boston, can you tell me the honest forecast for the boston area within 128 belt below the MA Pike? You guys have been right more than then and I trust your outlooks. I do not think this storm has a chance to move up given the cold air pushing back down and if it hits the ocean much like the one in December the weekend of the 19th, that never really stopped until the end of the Sunday
