All Activity

It dont look as brutal as it has been this time.The ensembles all of them seem to struggle to even get into the 40's,so maybe it wont be that bad.

Noticed little or no comment and no wind advisories for what I think will be a notable 1-5 hour burst of wind this evening that impacts air travel an maybe a few downed branches-power outages... I think this will evolve as the upper 5H trough etc swings neutral and intensifies in its passage tonight. All yours... going to the movies and see some ping pong. The way the wind will show itself: right now, where it's downward transferring from is light. BUT, modeling continues to show rapid development of a strong wind field over 60 MPH at 5000 feet in southern PA/southern NJ 5P-8P, then that shifts northeast across northern PA, northern NJ/LI and se NYS 9PM-1AM with winds at 5000 feet further intensifying, then this departs PA/NJ for CT/MA in the 2A-6A Monday time frame. Soundings suggest AT Least Ridges above 1000 feet will gust briefly 50-55 MPH tonight. I suspect the valleys will be 45-50 MPH for an hour or two after nightfall. Explicit modeling has a little less than I expect so my confidence in wind driven isolated power outages and winds over 45 MPH is a little less than I'd like but I can't ignore some other data sets. Scattered wind and snow shower impacts this evening. I only commented since I didn't see much chatter about this

Fropa on the Icon.

The same northern stream issues we've had for a while now. It's too far east and can't phase, so no storm can come up the coast. Also pretty much ruins the chances for the storm after that too, everything is shunted too far east.

A lot of snow squall warnings on the Allegheny Front and Laurel Highlands. Maybe we get something this afternoon?

I’m not yet. But even a little snow after this warm break would be nice.

Last n9ight was basically a coating, Still watching the 16-19th for something more significant.

RGEM obviously wouldn't work out but it did trend to the NS diving down more SW. Can't believe we're already at "extrapolate the mesoscales" for this lol.\ Edit: Also the RRFS A digs more thru 64hrs. But my read on that model so far is... not good? Am I imagining that?

New Hampshire? I was referring to central New Haven.

The big storm is most likely off the table for next weekend. No 50 50 and lack of blocking. Hope for a weak storm at this point.

Yesterday, JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Newark all had highs of 53°. That followed their having identical highs of 54° a day earlier. The last time all three sites had identical highs on two consecutive days was November 11-12, 2025 when the highs were 42° and 51° respectively.

That wind is a blowing! .

Forget about a big storm. No 50 50 and no blocking. Hope for a few inches ( if that)

Why are you acting like a weenie ? You are a meteorologist. Act like one.

We have a few flurries here

I'm not overly enthused but at least we aren't torching anymore

Hobby? Who would choose this as a hobby? This is a mental illness that most of us were born with lol

What is the over/under on the amount of digital snow DC metro loses per season? .

Right now, the NAO still appears likely to be mainly positive. It wouldn't be a "deal-breaker."

And that area of above average snowfall and below average temperatures continues to shrink every day. It's been a year without winter west of the Mississippi river. And here in the northeast we've torched quite well this week. Colder weather appears to return this week which brings more warmth to the west. Been lots of talk about a 2013-2014 pattern setting up or 2014-2015, but this winter is one of the farthest from those.

The ratio of time and energy spent to enjoyment for this hobby must be one of the worst available.

You do know the line between sane and insane is fine.

It must be decent because Chuck didn’t post it

On a related note, I don’t know who these people are, but it just showed up on my YouTube feed. Haven't even listened to it, but the title alone gives me joy.
