Looks like it will be right. Couple inches now.

Forecast was 16” down in MA (it was 24” at one point)
It’s really hard to tell with the wind and drifts what we have.
But I suspect we’ll end up with 12”

The forecasters did warn this storm would be very hard to forecast accumulations.
Narrow band of heavy snow.
It changed up and down by feet all week. But it never went over 14” forecast at the lake and it sat at around 6” for most of the week.

They called it a “cyclone bomb”.

Wind, frozen lake and dry snow. Even an inch can create some large drifts from it blowing off the lake for weeks.

Cape is getting hammered. 80 mph gusts and over 100K without power.
It could have gone more north. But it didn’t.
Certainly verified bombogenesis. Definition is 24 mb drop in central pressure over 24 hours. It had dropped 35 in 18.
