  1. Go by the legend range colors. The labeled numbers (i.e 1-14) are probability data being applied. Stupid, yes.
  2. Impressive model trends today so far. If the storm ends up being intense and closer to the coast, there will be a zone of intense upward motion/frontogenesis resulting in 2+ inches per hour snowfall rates. Winds will be an issue, but it may be a challenge to achieve blizzard conditions as the snow could be too wet. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.
  3. Just to clarify, Watches are not downgraded. They are upgraded or canceled.
  4. Yup, most of the energy is onshore today. The recon is also for atmospheric river research/data.
  5. Yes, there were recon data yesterday at 18z and 00z in the eastern Pacific. Looks like some recon data is scheduled again for 00z this evening.
  6. The 06z GFS certainly is a WOW, but that has to be over amplified!
  7. 49 here currently. Some spotty grass showing now but still impressed with the snow cover hanging on.
  8. Well, the model trends have become interesting.
  9. The Global High-Resolution Atmospheric Forecasting (GRAF) model is a propriety, physics based, numerical weather prediction system developed by The Weather Company (an IBM Business) in collaboration with the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
  10. We are required to use the NBM for the official NWS forecast. Through collaboration though we can edit that if it is significant enough. It is quite the touchy new policy that many are not happy with. It basically adds more work than saving time as we were told it would. NBM has its flaws plus it always lags behind at least one model cycle.
  11. As of 1 PM... 7.4" at PHL. 6.6" at NWS Mount Holly
  12. Changing to sleet here at NWS Mount Holly.
  13. More sleet reports from central to southern DE over to southern Cape May County.
  14. There is ongoing FGEN, it is just more spread out looking on the radar currently (resulting in a large area of moderate to heavy snow).
  15. Yup, given the visibility reductions looks like more snow than sleet. More of a mix or changeover closer to coastal Sussex County, DE.
