C- for Willy boy. Boston ended up on the low end of his range. Points deducted for range being as large as the eventual snow total

[Will Ciccone @weatherwilly]

Not to be redundant but here is a last look at what I expect today. This will be graded when storm ends. I can tell you right now some areas in NNJ and CT can see 5 to 6 inches locally (hopefully my backyard) with coastal taking over later. Real deal today

Pam gets a B-: totals on the low side of her range but nailed it for the most part. She’s welcome in the trust tree for now.

Sunday snowfall map. @Patriots will see some accumulation @GilletteStadium by halftime!

Jan 19 storm review: @growingwisdom

B+. Used a tight range and naked it. Incorrect on it being good snowball snow.

[Dave Epstein @growingwisdom]

Here's my latest map not much change. Still could be some shift east/west ultimately.

Dec 27 snow forecast grades:

Ch 4: B-
Ch 5: B
Ch 7: C+
Ch 25: C
Ch 10: D
NWS: B+

Not the best not the worst. Ch 10 probably the worst of the bunch but seems like everyone was scared to call this one

Afternoon Snowfall Forecast Update! Late Fri PM/early Sat AM Snow (ch. 4,5,7,25,10,NWS)

Dec 27 storm grades for @PeteNBCBoston

B+. Did pete do it again or did pete do it again?!

[Pete Bouchard @PeteNBCBoston]

While you were sleeping off a food coma, guidance came out with the goods this AM.

Snow breaks out by 7-10p (ocean effect 1st). Wraps for most before dawn..but keeps up along coast until mid AM. Super fluffy/fine snow. 3-5" for most, 5-8+" in spots at coast (favoring S. Shore).

The red balloon really did Matty Flurries here. Circling a 6-7 range only to end up with 3 is a tough look. You’re on my watch list Matt!

[Matthew Ferreira | MassachusettsWx 🇧🇷 @MassachusettsWx]

Here is my last call snowfall map for our event tonight! Have been aggressive/north than most folks since yesterday, and I feel good about this forecast..tricky set up down towards NYC/LI. Hope for the best, prep for the worst. Enjoy!

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

So it’s really going to be just rain, huh

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

@bostonforecasts Jet stream huh? https://t.co/BWEXAdLXig

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

I remember when this was going to be a foot of snow (4 days ago)

[Boston Maps @bostonforecasts]

Snowfall Forecasts (ch. 4,5,7,25,10,NWS) Boston could see a little thursday afternoon ocean effect flurries. Nantucket is where the real snow is at. Slight warmup over the weekend into next week.

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

Pete was right! And wrong! https://t.co/8h5p1glue5

[Pete Bouchard @PeteNBCBoston]

(Mostly) dodging a storm tomorrow, then it appears we're in for a mini thaw. Don't be deceived, however, as long as that big blue (& violet) blob remains to our north, winter holds sway.

Willy Boy mailed this one in a bit and it shows.

**Snowfall Forecast*

Too busy today to make official map so here is my cheery picked model for best forecast Sat afternoon. The 0z Euro ensemble at 75th percentile. This makes most sense to me. This is for initial burst of snow only before changeover to rain.

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

Feb 16 storm grades: @ericfisher

Slightly undersold but very accurate for points north of boston. Nailed the rain changeover.

A-

[Eric Fisher @ericfisher]

Updated snow forecast on the front end of the storm. Most areas will have switched to ice/rain by 5-8am Sunday south to north. #wbz

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

Feb 16 storm grades: @1DegreeOutside

1Degree continues to ride the hot hand. Very close on snow totals, nailed the transition to rain. Firmly in the trust tree

[1DegreeOutside @1DegreeOutside]

Over a foot of snow for some, prolonged icing for others, heavy rain too. It's all about location! Everything you need to know about the weekend storm in Insights: https://t.co/lJmcFj3CAq

Feb 16 storm grades: @TerryWBZ

Scary Terry nailed this one. Slightly under predicted, but nailed down the transition to rain and was closer than most on snow totals

A-

[Terry Eliasen @TerryWBZ]

An absolute mess coming this weekend...plowable snow followed by ice and rain...

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

Feb 16 storm grades: @Lclimateguy

Liam gets points for a nearly unreadable map with colors that are barely distinguishable. Points removed tho for being what we call in the biz “wrong”

C+

[ᅠLiam @Lclimateguy]

Here's my snowfall map for tomorrow. Im thinking a widespread 2-4 for most of sne. Get elevation or latitude and there could be up to 8. I might be a little too low in some areas, but im not getting burned by the under for another storm this winter. Enjoy!

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

Feb 16 storm grades: @MetMikeWCVB

Mike “wank em” wankum undershot this one a bit with boston getting close to 6 inches. Double points taken off for being wrong by the amount of his provided range (2 in). Mike now lives on the watch list

C-

[Mike Wankum @MetMikeWCVB]

nother storm, another mix of snow, rain and ice. This will arrive toward sunset on Saturday and be with us all day Sunday. Depending on the time of the change over to rain it looks like about 2-4" in Boston. More snow toward the north were the change over is later.

[Boston Weatherman Watch Dog @wmwatchdog]

@TerryWBZ Sources on the ground telling me 4 inches in Waltham. Not sure what kind of ruler that guy is using
