Flake size continues to suffer, with poor dendritic growth. Rather than building in further west, the precipitation shield has been eroding west of the Connecticut River with a large dry slot moving across western CT and west and central MA. The main plume of moisture to the south of the region will be travelling northeast, affecting portions of eastern Massachusetts and SE NH later today. Jackpot in southern New England will likely be in NE Worcester County and eastern Hillborough country, where precipitation will remain snow while heavy banding moves through. 12+" will be possible in these areas.
In Keene, we'll have to closely monitor the progression the precipitation on radar. It doesnt look too promising and at this point, 6 to 8 inches is a better bet for total accumulation.

With these changes, delay potential is also decreased for tomorrow.
