    Yup, that is about as perfect an outcome as could possibly happen in my backyard. Good for you guys too since the moderate to heavy snow lingers as the coastal low develops on the easterly flow. RGEM would be the best case obviously but I have to think it keeps trending east with the heaviest snow. Miller B redevelopments very rarely bury eastern PA and not places nearer to the coast, actually I can't think of any that have done that. I'd say this is a very solid 8-12" for all you guys, maybe less for people like 2001kx in Clearfield with 12"+ most likely near I-81 especially around Harrisburg.

    Not sure if this will be the same with the crazy deform band. This seems to be much more based on the initial warm air advection snow then the low occludes/matures which would stop the consistent heavy snow banding. But maybe, who knows.

    That one was something alright. I used to live 25 miles SE of NYC and left for Manhattan that day in a driving rain and then it flipped completely to snow midway through Queens. Manhattan was a whiteout. When I came back I followed the R/S line as it pivoted east and got home literally as it changed to snow. I ended up with 10" or so and Central Park 22". Winds were insane too, well over 60mph. It was northern stream driven but had a good tropical moisture feed as well.

    Not sure how many follow the ICON or how good it is but it looked really tucked with rain at some point past NYC.

    RGEM probably isn't done correcting. Most models at least give them 5-6" or so on the front end burst when it reaches them. The easterly flow and maturing low is a pitfall for them this time though. Miller B's don't normally max out on this area (at least west of Suffolk County). Would be sad and somewhat hilarious if NYC catches up to them in seasonal snow. They have 23" now and NYC has 10.6.

    I know the NAM's the NAM but that 700mb map is absolutely classic to wreck 90-95% of us-tremendous lift and tons of moisture on that easterly jet. And it isn't moving all that fast like these front end bursts often do such as 12/17's.

    And it's obviously way overdone with that heavy snow area in E PA. It'll be a great place to be but there won't be 47" in Allentown. It's typical in miller Bs that the development is a little delayed in the end and more progressive. Usually that burns NYC and benefits Boston but this time it's exactly what we need.

    I might run out of shoes after I have to eat them all.

    Way better than the last 2 RGEM runs. DC/Baltimore won't be happy but I can't think of a miller B like this which jackpotted that region or any miller B for that matter.

    Good, an improvement from that model was all I needed to see. Would be best if the 700mb low ticked east a little more but there's time for that.
  13. jm1220
    Yep, as snowgoose said there'll be snow showers and some bands around that could add 1-2" maybe if lucky on Tue.
  14. jm1220
    Not tremendously, I'd say it's noise. Hopefully we're in consensus time where the tucked models can come east/develop a bit later and the models like NAM tick west a little.

    PivotalWeather is pretty good. This is the sounding for my location at 21z Mon on the 0z NAM.
  16. jm1220
    Even the RGEM and tucked models going east a little would be a great outcome for all of us other than the twin forks. The GFSv16 consistency is encouraging too, I don't see both of these flopping totally on their face this close in. The old GFS though I'm essentially disregarding.
  17. jm1220
    I think so but Jan 2016 was a different kind of storm than this one. We're in the range now where hopefully the NAM has a clue though. It's not 72-84 hours out anymore where it's usually discounted. Not sure how useful these are yet but the SREFs seemed pretty warm at 21z but sometimes the NMM/ARW models they run on are too amped.
  18. jm1220
    Hopefully the RGEM in 30min ticks east again, if so the NAM may be onto something here.

    It's awesome but for now have to treat it as wx porn unless the foreign models that have it more tucked jump on.

    NAM's a monster/crippler again. This is my favorite panel. This sits over NYC/Long Island for several hours. That would be 3"/hr snow in that band.
  22. jm1220
    Oh definitely, I can see some people getting 20". I just don't think it'll be the city in this setup. It'll be a place maybe near I-84 where ratios are good and there's plenty of moisture. snywx, sussexcountyobs, ForestHillWx, where you are will be some of the best spots.
  23. jm1220
    Yes and pan-seared 5 minutes on each side.
  24. jm1220
    For the City I'd say 9-12" with 9" in the Rockaways/JFK and 12" in the Bronx. That's about what consensus is. These insane model outputs aren't happening. I'd be thrilled but I'll eat my shoe if I get the 24" the new GFS shows.

    The strong east flow's a blessing and curse. Longitude west actually helps us this time. But we don't want a low stalling out just off Atlantic City or it's our turn sooner or later too.
