NYC Travel Ban incoming per my wife who works in EM.

I see Upton has blessed the title of this thread. Excellent

What a beauty.

GFS brought the eggs. Just need the Euro to go ham and we've got an omelette!

I think we're in for a long Friday night.

Verbatim the trend of years ending in 6 having a monster would continue.

2" QPF @ 60 for NYC... still going...

1.23" QPF @ 54 for NYC and still going

Love it or hate it, I can't deny betting on Kalshi about how much snow will fall at CP has made me some serious guitar gear money.

Last 12 Euro runs:

If I could I'd take this GFS, run with it, protect it, nurture it... Here's hoping the Euro agrees.

Euro stopped closing off that damn Canadian vort this run!

Good trends overnight. Remains to be seen if the GFS caves to the Euro or vice versa. The biggest difference between the two that I see is that piece of energy in Canada at 500mb. On the GFS, it dives down. On the Euro, it stays closed off which messes up the timing. Someone who knows way more than me can provide a better explanation of what's going on here.

00z GFS is a nice hit

They can't all be winners.

A short rant in here. It seems like not having a major snowstorm in 5 years wiped all collective snow removal knowledge from some New Yorker brains: People shoveling snow into the street People waiting until after the storm is over to shovel This includes their cars People not clearing snow off the roofs of their cars Crosswalks not getting shoveled If it looks like another storm hits, I'm about to buy a shovel and do it my damn self. All that said, DSNY has done a good job!

18z GFS about 185 miles SE, OTS after dropping some snow on Georgia and the Carolinas.

One for the Weather Porn folder.
