CAPE

Because it is the latest model to puke out what it thinks will happen.

Still going at hour 84. Not too shabby.

@frd getting crushed here.

Sounds like what Mount Holly was discussing in their latest AFD.

Interesting read from Mount Holly for the coastal low part of the storm. Kinda sounds like maybe the B word might make an appearance- By early Monday, the surface low intensifying and pivoting off the coast will result in increasing winds and increasing cold air advection as the mean flow turns northeasterly. Impressive wind fields (925 mb winds 40-50+ kts along and south/east of I-95) will develop as a result of the gradient leading to strong winds at the surface. The strongest winds will be along and near the coasts with gusts possibly in excess of 50 mph. Farther inland, wind gusts of 35- 45 mph will likely be common along and south/east of I-95. As a result, a change over to all snow is expected on the back side of the storm, even all the way to the coast, as the system begins departing into Monday night. Light snow may linger into Tuesday morning depending on how progressive the storm is. The exact placement and strength of the low will dictate exactly where the heaviest snow falls. The complexity of this system lies in details of the system transitioning from an overruning precip regime to a mesoscale banding (f-gen) and wrap-around precip regime. The latest 12Z guidance suite has trended the system a bit southward and thus colder, which suggests the greatest potential for f-gen banding across portions of interior southern New Jersey and Delmarva. This axis can certainly change over the coming forecast updates. Snow totals in the banding could potentially exceed the broadbrush ~6-8" storm total snowfall that is currently forecast across much of the urban corridor and south/east away from the coast.

Forecast here is 2-4 Sunday, 1-3 Sunday night. Beyond that- maybe more if it doesn't get too rainy/mixy.

WSW for southern half of Mount Holly FA as well

I am thinking the deform band would be more expansive/continuous from NJ southwestward towards DC.

Here da perty map.

CMC was a significant improvement. Thermals are much better, although still some warming aloft for a time.

This is all I ever do.

I have been known to have a beer while on the treadmill. Drink and burn.

Work out everyday. HH everyday. Moderation folks.

Have the suppression fears re-emerged in the storm thread?

I like the Canadian a lot more today.

Anyone post the clown snow map from the RGEM? I cant go in there. I only do early AM then again at HH.

LOL here I am staring at my screen waiting for a damn panel to load on WB. Well that looks kinda Euro like, but more

How much snow did you get there in March of 2018?

k.

I am pretty good at faking it.

In the end that is all anyone cares about, whether they admit it or not. Maybe try being a little less abrasive.

Next panel. The 4 or 5 that were tucked a bit inland at 0z are now right along the coast.

It supports the op, which has to be the case at this range, but yeah comparing the 2 runs, a little more clustering on the eastern edge at 6z. Not that much though. Could still see the next op run make a shift NW.

It has more to do with the proximity/strength of the developing coastal low and the resulting east winds. Cant really overcome that because we lose the surface up to 850. That's why the Euro solution is ideal. Ofc more snow goes hand in hand with the colder solution in this case.
