NERD ALERT...the atmospheric heights will be SO LOW tonight, anyone living above 4,000 ft or so (hello top of Mount Washington) will be in a different atmospheric layer entirely, the stratosphere! This layer is typically 4-12 miles up, but tonight it will be less than a mile!

The jetstream is about to get all sorts of bent out of shape in the next week or two...this ups the chances of bigger and more impactful storms...no guarantee where they will form or which areas will be hit hardest but definitely a time frame to watch

How about we just put the nor'easter aside for this evening and talk about the chance at 60 degrees later next week?

Drum roll please...The WBZ weather team is releasing our first official snowmap forecast for Saturday's nor'easter...2 feet possible, still some uncertainty but a major winter storm appears imminent

Not sure what’s more impressive… an object 200,000 miles away (the Moon) is lining up perfectly with an object 93,000,000 miles away (the Sun) to produce a shadow over us today. Or, that scientists can predict this phenomenon with exact precision hundreds of years in advance.

I hate to say this on February 13 but this COULD be our last snowfall accumulation of the season. Nothing in the pipeline this week and it looks like a very warm end to the month. Obviously can’t rule out something in March, but…

This is another way to tell the nor'easter story, a winter severity index from NOAA...The red (Major) corresponds to the potential of major property damage/disruptions...the purple = potential for extreme damage/disruptions

Rough plot of some infamous loop-dee-loop storms, the Blizzard of '78, the Perfect Storm and the forecast for this nor'easter...obviously lots of other factors at play (time of year, tide cycle etc) but this track will be closest to southern New England of the three

Odds have decreased somewhat of a coastal hugger storm for Saturday...mainly focused on classic snow track and a more eastern solution...much more to come with model updates midday/early afternoon

Experts estimating 72 hours before the majority (95%) of MA residents have their power back. I cannot wait for the day when above ground poles and lines no longer exist...landscape much prettier and power issues a thing of the past...in our lifetimes?

Funny observation...when the meteorologist in the neighborhood (me) starts up their snowblower to test it, people take notice. Almost like the groundhog popping out of its hole.

Sunday night will be my friend @BarryWBZ last broadcast of his amazing career. 55 years ago @BarryWBZ built a scale model of the WBZ set in his teenage bedroom. This Sunday he will give his final weather cast from his home studio once again. #FullCircle
"Barry, you're a legend." After 42 years on the air in Boston, meteorologist Barry Burbank gives his final forecast on WBZ-TV this weekend. Use the hashtag #ThanksBarry to join us in wishing him a very happy retirement! boston.cbslocal.com/2020/04/…

Potential for a high impact severe weather event this afternoon and evening. Rarely seen atmospheric setup today in New England...could lead to multiple hazards including tornadoes and straight-line wind damage...we have you covered all day long on WBZ

Tuesday could very well be one of those days when most schools cancel early, like Monday evening. Not that it is a big storm but timing of snow probably will force most superintendents to pull the trigger.

One of our more trusted computer models...forecast snow output in the next 10 days...essentially 0 in southern New England.
I would be AOK with that

We are so fortunate that Lee is not coming any closer...look at all that rain just to our east...3-6"+ would have been disastrous for our area right now given the summer we had

Sticking with 6-12" forecast NW of Boston and 3-6" in the City...heaviest snow will fall in the first several hours (around midnight through early Sunday AM)...a little lull after that and then a final burst in the afternoon and evening

I think many schools will struggle making a call tomorrow...early in the morning superintendents will look out the window and see rain...but when the cold air arrives untreated roadways will ice up fast. Would hate to see early dismissal or regular school day with bus accidents

With a whopping 0.1" in Boston today, we managed to extend our record long streak of days without a snowstorm of 4" or greater, now at 718 days! What does it take to get a real snow storm in Boston?

Getting a lot of tweets with folks ready to write off winter...yes it was a dull December but let me remind you, just 4 years ago (winter of 2014-2015) things were very quiet through mid January and then we got more than 100" of snow...not forecasting that, BUT just sayin'

Are we done? Looks like we have 1 or two more chances at snow (early and mid next week) and that could be it for the season! I would say we are within 7-10 days of officially sticking a fork in winter
