Good point, but if you guys get 12+ of wet heavy snow all bets are off. NWS was really pushing this in there morning discussion.

“Snow is expected to be wet, heavy and dense with a significant snow load factor that will greatly increase the risk for snow damage as totals exceed 4 or more inches. Factor that in with strong NE winds developing later Tuesday morning to especially Tuesday night, the potential for tree and powerline damage will prove a significant hazard, reflected in the Winter Storm Severity Index.”

I think power outages are a considerable threat in Rockingham, Hillsborough, and Cheshire counties. GYX and BOX WFOs have been hinting pretty hard at this in there AFD and watches. I think it was March 2017 that caused a ton of damage in the Merrimack valley that this storm reminds me of in terms of impact.

Just my two cents though, good forecast as always I enjoy your posts.
