That 200-250kt jet would indicate there is potential for more QPF...not surprising the RGEM/NAM are showing the most generous snows along the coast from DE to MA...they may be picking up on that while the GFS cannot.

2/13 Light/Moderate Snowfall Nowcasting & Observations
SnowGoose69 replied to Northof78's topic in New York City Metro
Thats a pretty stupid jet core in place...would not be surprised if there is more QPF spit out than being shown now, especially by globals like GFS which have nothing -
Given the GFS continues to get better with the NRN stream you can hope its crapping the bed with the dampening of the SRN stream which even now after all the improvements it still regularly does...the 06z Euro was definitely "better" than the 12Z GFS so I would not toss this one yet.

April 2000 Albany was 84 or 85 and got 16 inches of snow the next day
-
There has been some notable big late March/early April NE snowstorms in years where you are flipping from La Nina to El nino
-
The GFS surface low track given what it has going on is way too far east, that said the CMC is probably not realistic either but something notably further west than the GFS is likely in such a setup
-
The 12Z NAM/RGEM both at the end of their runs look more GFSish, thats for sure
-
Usually only with a west based -NAO, in patterns where things are moving fast you usually only see that happen if the storm is a monster
-
Depends...the GFS did recently get schooled by the Euro but given how important the NRN stream is here you can certainly argue the way its gone this winter the GFS may be more in tune with this
-
Probably will end up muted somewhat as a result of us coming out of winter into March
-
I know someone saw that the other -PNA Decembers which were close in amplitude to this one that Jan/Feb both averaged below normal after in the Eastern US so perhaps some type of forced change to the pattern as a result of a persistent -PNA like that
-
The air mass is way too mild and the pattern does not really support anything to be deep/slow moving enough to manufacture its cold air...this would probably be mostly rain or white rain even if you did have a 980 something low inside the BM because it would just be too fast moving

Yeah my uncle in Quogue over a few blocks from KFOK got 24...there were some big amounts there south shore but not many reports. I think Blue Point had 22 -
Yeah the GFS/GEFS has largely been more SE ridgy overall D5 and beyond last few runs than the EPS/GEPS which is odd given it cranks the MJO into 3 and many other MJO guidance plots showing nothing like that

their storm total should be 8.7 as of 1pm as they reported 7.5 at 1pm and had 1.2 yesterday. The 420 climate report though has 7.3 which makes no sense...should be about 8-8.2 for today as both LGA and JFK added around 0.5-1.0 from their 1pm total -
