Here is an even closer view of the tight banding along the coastline. Fairly confident of inland numbers, but honestly those of you inside Route 128 will have the most variability. pic.twitter.com/lFw19cCtlE

Going to sharpen up the coast even more. Coastal boundary bringing in too much mild air near the water, and the opportunity for snow was the start of this storm. Won’t be getting any colder in those spots to make a difference. #wbz pic.twitter.com/TIyNbFM0tV

A number of you provided feedback that it’s raining at the coastline… mad props for the feedback💯💯. Warm ocean air removes snow potential for coast.New map reflects that feedback (ie rain at coast)…#7news pic.twitter.com/xA6McWFwyX
