    Areas affected...parts of east central New York...southern
    Vermont...New Hampshire and southwestern Maine

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 281547Z - 281845Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy snow rates on the order of 1-2 inches per hour
    appear probable in a corridor from the vicinity of the Capital
    District of New York through the southern Green into White Mountains
    of Vermont and New Hampshire, into areas north of Portland ME
    through 1-3 PM EST.

    DISCUSSION...Rapid (2-4 mb 2-hourly) surface pressure falls are
    ongoing across the northern Mid Atlantic coast vicinity through
    southern New England, where substantive surface cyclogenesis is
    forecast to proceed beneath strengthening divergent flow between
    coupling upper jet streaks. Downstream of a mid-level short wave
    trough pivoting into the northern Mid Atlantic region, models
    indicate strengthening upward vertical motion becoming maximized
    within a saturating layer near/just above 600 mb, where temperatures
    around -15C are conducive to large dendritic ice crystal growth.

    Thermodynamic profiles across the lower Hudson/Champlain Valley
    vicinity into New England are still largely sub-freezing, aside from
    a slowly deepening near-surface layer slowly advecting across the
    lower Hudson Valley into southern New England. It appears that the near-surface environment will remain cold enough in a corridor
    (roughly) near/northeast of the Capital District of New York through
    the Portland ME to support heavy accumulating snow, which various
    model output indicates probably will include rates on the order of
    1-2 inches per hour.
