CMC did go south compared to the 12z run though. It keeps the significant snow down in southern Jersey and brushes us with 1 to 2 inches up here. Still a long way to go with this one though. We have a shot. At least we know it will be plenty cold for accumulating snow Monday, but hopefully it won't get pushed too far south.
-
At least as the GFS backed down somewhat, the CMC jumped aboard. Hopefully the EURO will show something nice shortly, but with this setup it will take quite awhile for the models figure out what's going to happen.
-
Yeah we should be well up into the 40s tomorrow as long as that storm misses to the south. I would think GFS is wrong since everything else is so far south. Hopefully we'll be adding to our snow totals early next week.

It was nice to see this event overperform a little bit. I got 1.3" here. I figured it was gonna be more like a half inch or maybe three quarters. -
Euro misses us just to the south with a light snow on Monday, but then gives us a few inches Tuesday before changing over to a mix and rain. Hopefully GFS is correct with the big snowstorm idea for Monday, but obviously a long way to go before the models figure out what's gonna happen. I do think it's likely we'll see at least some snow early next week. Hopefully we'll break our March snow drought. I'd like to see one more snowstorm, but I am looking forward to some much warmer temps as we head into mid March.

Not bothering me at all. We had snow on the ground for 3 weeks after the January snowstorm because it was so cold. You wanted us to believe that we could never have a cold winter again. You must be stunned about this winter.
-
LOL.

GFS and CMC give us snow early next week. We're long overdue for a March snow event, so hopefully it'll happen. Since we're having a cold/snowy winter this year, I think there's a good chance that we'll break our March snow drought.
-
Tonight's GFS keeps most of the accumulation just to our south -- a very close call. NAM does bring the accumulating snow across our area Thursday afternoon, but only 1 to 2 inches. CMC has slower timing, bringing it in late at night, and has a wintry mix. Certainly a little something to watch with 3 days to go.
-
I figured this winter would be good after we got the significant amount of snow in December. We know that when we get at least 4 inches of snow in a La Nina December, it usually goes on to be a snowy winter. It worked out that way again. Hopefully we can get some snow with the early March cold next week, before it warms up. I don't think this winter will go out without a fight in March.
-
You sometimes get criticized for being so optimistic all the time, but your optimism certainly worked out this winter. A great job by you.
-
Yeah I'll take my chances with a La Nina rather than an El Nino. As I said I like that it gives us a good chance for winter to get off to an early start with cold and snow in December.
-
Yeah but we did very well with the La Nina this winter. Even last winter was colder but the bigger snowstorms got suppressed to the south. Overall we've done very well with La Nina the last couple years so I'm not sure we should be happy to see it go away. I like that La Nina gives us a good chance for winter to get off to an early start with snow in December.
-
Today's CMC looks pretty good with Thursday's snow. Not gonna be a big storm but maybe we can get a few inches.

So difficult to make an accurate measurement with this type of storm. Our friend RU is the best with measurements and he's saying almost 22 in Metuchen. I got an average measurement of 20 here in Piscataway. The drifts are incredible.
