  1. Can we get a separate banter thread please? Too much nonsense here the last few hours.
  2. Basic physics tells you that you can’t run the upper level low into a 1038-1040mb high. If we didn’t have blocking it would be a completely different story. Heavy snow to a dry slot followed by the potential coastal on Monday is much more likely at this point than significant mixing issues. However, even 96 had some sleet up this way. Can’t rule it out but any guidance holding on to that primary North of say Pittsburg is likely wrong.
  3. The Canadian is NOT a good model and I wouldn’t be concerned with it at all unless it started moving back towards a more suppressed look. It’s over amplifying the trough and not handeling the airmass to the North well.
  4. The general rule of thumb is that clown maps are for clowns. They aren’t useful for making serious weather forecasts. They don’t account for a lot of things. The short term models like the HRRR are useful for picking up banding or mixing issues. You have in this case a raging jet stream slamming into a brick wall of dense, dry arctic air. It gonna snow, a lot.
  5. My parents are coming into HPN from SJU Sunday night and that’s not happening either. Best part is they are on a cruise and have no idea it’s coming.
  6. The primary hanging on too long can sometimes be problematic. If I recall that was the issue with March 2001.
  7. We’re not getting sleet lol That cold air is way too entrenched.
  8. Much cleaner phase and better trough orientation.
  9. I’m not a 20 year old kid anymore. I’m a 40 year old man with 3 kids and a full time job. Don’t have the time I once had. I’ll do my best to chip in on this one though since it’s got blockbuster written all over it.
  10. You can see here how the timing is slightly off and instead of a consolidated trough, it gets elongated, weakens, and gets kicked East at the last momiute. Still positive trends.
  11. The phase was just a little late. Need to amplify the flow.
  12. Going to be a big hit. Surface is way North.
  13. It’s already beginning to interact at 06z Saturday.
  14. The GFS is now very similar to the Euro with how it handles the Southern trough. Let’s see if it holds.
  15. The GFS should be better this run. It’s ejecting the Southern energy faster and the Northern piece is a hair slower and further West.
  16. Don’t be shocked if the end result of this storm is about an 8 hour event that brings 4-8” of snow. Those saying the changes aloft on the Euro are just noise are being ignorant. A long duration event only happens if there’s a clean phase. Otherwise it’s overrunning and a scrape as the coastal gets kicked East.
  17. Yup, not a clean phase. It trended towards the GFS with regards to handling the SW energy.
  18. Having the UKIE moving towards the Euro is encouraging
  19. There’s no phasing and it all gets squashed south. If that Southern piece doesn’t eject in time we’re finished.
