Wow! Quite a shift in Tonight's GFS Model Run

It now looks like the second low pressure system, that is the Monday one, will rob the Sunday storm of energy. I may have to lower the snow amounts to 0"-2" if this continues to verify tomorrow. However, do not think that we would be out of the woods if I lower the totals. Now, it appears we will be dealing with a significant winter storm in New England on Monday, with a mixture of snow and sleet on the south coasts and all snow once you head far enough north and west. Here is the scenario map from earlier:

Preliminary Sunday Snowfall Forecast

Here is my first forecast for the Sunday snow. Expect the snow to develop by midnight on Saturday/Sunday, and continue through late morning here in Bristol. Total snow accumulations will be 2"-4". The snow will be wet and heavy to clear away.
