  1. ECMWF west again. Beginning to think a period of accumulating snow, even at the coast is possible after 19Z or so. I'm talking maybe an inch but no doubt the 5 boroughs could see the ground get covered which I highly doubted 12-18 hours ago
  2. The HRRR seems to be getting more amped and juiced with each passing run
  3. It never wavered. Normally the NAM waffles a ton in the 48-84 range. When it doesn't beware...see tomorrow's event where the Euro sort of just caved. The NAM has never really budged on that.
  4. That was before the 2nd upgrade. The Jan 2013 upgraded caused suppression issues at times for the Euro. They upgraded it again in late 2016 I think and since then its tended to have over amplification issues from 90-120
  5. Euro is now much wetter tomorrow. It definitely blew this one it seems.
  6. Given the -NAO and high in place it would be a fairly significant bust if this ended up primarily rain near the coast or the average snow total amongst EWR/NYC/JFK/LGA was not at least 5-7 inches.
  7. The Op Euro has had major overamped biases at this range now for several years. I believe we could see a run today whether its this one, the 18 or the 00 tonight be insanely far NW (I'm talking where most of the 95 corridor is primarily rain). Its ensembles though will probably be SE of whatever it does on that same Op run
  8. The snow totals would likely be much higher in places just east of that cutoff if the UKIE verified. Islip for example wouldn't see 0
  9. Sometimes they can make a good run up then shift east hard. It’s probably what’ll happen. It just won’t get was far north and west as the RGEM and some ensembles show
  10. The GFS has come a long way. Although I believe it’s too far SE and it’s not grasping upper or mid dynamics and hence QPF it was always reasonably close to other global guidance from 5-6-7 days out. As recently as 5 years ago that never would have happened
  11. The RGEM is likely too far west but that tells us the GGEM will probably be close to the same idea. The RGEM usually at this range portends what the GGEM will show
  12. Sometimes you almost just have to go with history on these things if you look at the EPS/NAM solution it would indicate New York City goes snow-rain-snow. When have we ever seen a storm with this type of set up do that in New York City? Either they stay all snow or they go snow to rain and stay rain and does anyone think that this could stay far enough west where they flipped to rain and that’s it? I just don’t see it given the pattern so I’m leaning in the direction of something splitting the difference of the GEFS EPS. I feel confident both models are too far west and east respectively
  13. The NAM has really been consistent with this. I thought the Euro idea might verify due to the vort energy near Toronto preventing this from getting too far NW but the jet activity is favorable for more precipitation to break out on the NW side of the system so the NAM idea could be right
  14. The NAM solution doesn’t make a whole lot of sense nor does many of the Euro members solely because systems evolving in such a pattern like this have never gone snow-mix or rain-snow at the coast. At least nothing that I can remember in the last 30-40 years. This is why more likely than not either this is going to split the difference between the EPS/NAM and GEFS idea or it’s going to continue ticking further NW
  15. Technically the Euro is going to get tomorrow correct it seems while other models were too far NW so it won’t be consecutive misses if it ends up too far NW Wednesday and Thursday
  16. Yeah it finally joined the party. The RGEM tried to as well but didn’t get there
  17. UKMET caved a bit tonight as did the RGEM. Both had been total misses til tonight
  18. The scary thing is this is replacing the NAM eventually and running out to 60. Nor sure when but certainly within next 3-4 years
  19. It’s damn tough to get a major snow event within 20 miles of the coast in NJ this early in the year barring a perfect setup. A 030-040 wind there is off 50 degree water. Even for JFK it’s a night and day difference as the same wind for them is primarily off land outside of a brief trek over LI sound
