Clearly I was wrong, this s/w is no joke and the confluence isn't enough to offset it. I would love to be proven wrong now and no I'm not trolling.

Mid levels will warm quickly so a quick couple inches followed by sleet/dry slot and then maybe another inch or two as the storm pulls east. And this assumes models don't keep trending west because if they do then it's more like 1-3" snow to rain. Once north of I-80 amounts go up significantly.

Nam continues the nw trend. No way that's happening. I think it'll be closer to 1-3/2-4"

Mid levels should warm quickly though so it could be like an inch to sleet that gets washed away by rain. I think you'd be right if we didn't have a full day of runs continuing to trend north.

Models keep trending north. I thought the blocking would be enough but it doesn't look like it. The north trend was my fear a couple days ago but then models went a bit east and now they're way NW.

Given it's still trending NW I'm thinking it'll be a couple hours of snow to sleet to rain with a coastal hugger up to the city. Huge storm for SNE.

Welp there goes our snowstorm, ugh I guess the PNA will kill us after all. If models keep trending west it'll be a couple hours of snow to rain.

A PNA would force this storm further east. The block is strong but not strong enough.

Dang if only we had more of a PNA those crazy totals in PA would've been over our area.

Barely. It's a bit more inland but then it goes ENE. A lot of this is just noise. Take a break until tomorrow.

Icon is trash. Rgem isn't good outside 36 hours. I'll take the Euro/Gfs combo right now.

Nam trending in the right direction. Don't worry so much about what it's doing aloft with 850s and such... that'll correct as we get closer. More ticks S & E wouldn't surprise me. Models starting to really pick up on the confluence.

Knock on wood but anyone getting 6"+ amounts will have a white Christmas this year. The grinch storm is gone, we still have blocking in place, and things actually get kinda favorable for more snow last week of December if the GEFS is correct. Models are also raising the heights around Alaska, which would help a lot with the cold supply.

A lot of our New England neighbors were quick to dismiss the Gfs, which is fair given it was an outlier but it clearly hammered in the blocking/confluence idea.

Yeah this would be a solid 12-16/18" storm. The lows gonna press against that block hard and I think it'll allow for some very strong bands to develop. A few local spots near 20" wouldn't surprise me.

Models haven't wavered much for days, just little ticks here and there. Don't expect any major revelations in the next day or so that would change that.

That's my thinking right now and most models share this idea, it's just that they take the low a bit further north before it goes east. I'd be more worried if I lived in SNE.

In the end it wasn't much different further north. That confluence can't be denied. The gfs actually takes it ESE eventually.

I think the worst case for us is an initial thump followed by a mid level dry slot and then some backend snows as the low slides east. I don't see how anyone in the NYC area and nearby counties sees less than 6-10" in this setup even with mixing.

Nam still out of its best range but it tends to be very amped beyond 48hrs in general.

Nam is garbage outside 36-48 hours. My final prediction is models trend more offshore/south beginning later tonight or tomorrow up until the storm happens. I like a gfs/euro compromise. The high won't be denied. I think some of the people that live further north in SNE are getting gaslit by the more amped models.

Active mid December with multiple event potential
SnoSki14 replied to Typhoon Tip's topic in New England
It just seems odd to me that this storm could be so amped up against a pretty strong nearby high. The low isn't that strong either. Honestly I'd be shocked if the overly amped models didn't start trending south 24-36 hours before the storm hits. I think a Euro/Gfs compromise works best right now. -

SnoSki14 replied to Typhoon Tip's topic in New England
Why are people so quick to dismiss the Gfs? It's one of the best performing models there is. Seems odd to outright throw it out. And gfs does very well in the 3 day timeframe. -
Active mid December with multiple event potential
SnoSki14 replied to Typhoon Tip's topic in New England
Really because it trended a lot weaker and further south than a few days ago. The Euro was the first to amp up today's storm but now it looks closer to the Gfs. I don't think people should be quick to dismiss the Gfs in the presence of a strong, cold high not too far north.
