  1. any guesses as to when or if they will get 2.5 inches more to avoid a record 2 seasons in a row below 10 inches ?
  2. same here obviously - you could call this storm a bust for many but these systems are difficult to predict as Upton and MT. Holly were chasing their tails last night issuing winter storm warnings in now casting mode....
  3. these types of storms are very difficult to predict till the last few hours prior - we could have easily missed out on the heavy band....
  4. this is not a clipper its a weak mid- latitude cyclone - starting out in central rockies - it didn't originate in Canada
  5. Paying too much attention to the model fluctuations every 6 hours - most don't have a handle on this system........
  6. so in other words bust potential is higher then normal again for this event ?
  7. true if the heavier banding ends up there - not certain where the banding will occur as of now
  8. how are you going to determine that in advance of the storm ?
  9. just like it was safe to go with 10:1 the previous event ?- many of the individuals mentioning it are METS with a solid reputation.....temps will be in the 20's at the surface and cold enough aloft....places in south jersey might have closer to 10:1
  10. mainly If you are north of I-78 in NJ - central and south jersey are looking good now............
  11. This is a lower then normal impact event since it is happening on a Friday night into Saturday morning and traffic is much lighter with closed school and many business'. Potential of 2-4 and 3-5 IMO especially south of I-78 in NJ ...
  12. Curious as to why Walt thinks this is as short as a 4 hour and long as a 10 hour event ?? Uncertainty of speed and development of the system ????
  13. IMO the models are not taking into account the higher ratios possible ( just like they didn't account for the lower ratios of the previous storm) especially the further colder north you go in the precip field so some areas you can add up to 50% more to the totals displayed
  14. with the higher than norm 10:1 ratios majority of guidance suggests this is a 2-4 or 3-5 inch IMO event south of I-78 in NJ down to at least DC and all the way to the beaches in NJ at least
  15. down here in central NJ the snow cover is decreasing rapidly - down to an inch or so with some bare spots - by the time the weekend snow starts probably just patches of an inch or less will remain.........
  16. RGEM came slightly (about 20 miles north) at 0Z and 2M temps are in the 20's in most of metro so higher then normal ratio's - 2 -4 inches region wide possible on RGEM
  17. they play this ultra conservative game practically every storm - thats what they are instructed by their bosses to do as opposed to what the private sector or media is instructed to advertise........
  18. cover their rears
  19. tend to doubt that will happen except far south jersey
  20. of course Mt. Holly is going conservative again 1-2 inches
