Since when did this turn into the snowpack observation thread?
Yes the HRRR doesn't have much ice South of 287 in Rockland but the GFS, 06z 3K NAM and some of the other mesoscale models are still on board.
12z will be telling.
He should consider himself lucky.
Lost power for multiple days during the October snowstorm from 2011 and of course during Irene, Floyd, Sandy and Isaias.
The NAM gets sleet all the way down into the city before precip finally shuts off.
It's also not as robust as the GFS with the amount that falls during the day on Friday.
Even if you took a blend of the GFS and Euro and sprinkled in a touch of the RGEM and the NAM, you still end up with a pretty nasty ice storm for the NW half of the sub forum and issues all the way into LI and CNJ.
LOL, this means absolutely nothing.
The temperatures will reach the lower to mid 40's region wide tomorrow and that has been well forecasted for several days. The plunge begins late tomorrow night.
We have a barometer in this storm.
How fast does KSWF change over to sleet/snow.
If they don't end up getting that much ZR up in Orange County it means the colder air is penetrating farther SE.
If you blend the Euro and GFS it ends up not being that big of a deal in NYC itself.
Sure, if you take the GFS verbatim then it could be a much bigger issue.
The RGEM is warmer but temperatures plummet after 15z.
0.2" still falls on the RGEM between 18z and 00z.
The Euro only has a trace during the same period. That's the difference.
