I’m not buying the late arrival of precip on the NAM. It has been doing some weird stuff with the precip field for the last few runs. The 3km looks much more reasonable.
Just posted my first call on my page. 4-8” for the Lehigh Valley. Even with a weaker storm like the Euro/UKMET, it will be very cold which will help get ratios to 15:1 or better here. I’m not really buying either of the outlier solutions (NAM nearly whiffing, RGEM bringing the low inland).
So we have the GFS, Euro, UKMET, ICON, and 3km NAM snowing during the Eagles game. While the CMC/RGEM and RAP rain on Philly. Consensus still seems to favor a snow game.
Take it from someone who lives in the northeast, the UKMET often overdoes the influence of cold and dry high pressure for our storms. I imagine it’s doing something similar in the south for next week.
All 0z models have pretty much held serve so far. Except for the RGEM which runs the low basically over Philly now, and the ICON which got a little weaker but still gives us a decent 3-6" event.
It snowed for 11 hours straight today. We got just over an inch. I'm not sure I've ever experienced an event quite like that where it snows for so long but we hardly get any accumulation.
