Very volatile and unstable situation. Places in eastern Pa that got 2 feet plus on the RGEM get 7" on the NAM.

Why is it that even if all the models were showing a direct hit we would not be the least bit surprised of a shift a few hundred miles to screw us? YES, I get what the models are showing and a miss makes perfect sense at this time, but the models aren't close to perfect at this range and enough of a shift could still happen that gets us into the good snows. Could also miss further south or develop too late, but this will hold my interest until at least the 00z runs tomorrow.

January 2021 General Discussions & Observations Thread
wxman replied to Stormlover74's topic in New York City Metro
Well, if you take the GFS as depicted at hr 126 and move the features NW by 100 miles then much of central NJ would be into significant snow. What's "much more"? If we move those features NW by 200 miles we'd be looking at P-type issues. Anyway, I would feel no more confident in a snowstorm next Friday even if the GFS showed exactly the right setup at this range. -

wxman replied to Stormlover74's topic in New York City Metro
No, but the modeling could EASILY adjusted the latitude of the key players 100 miles or more in that timeframe, and that's all it would take and then some. By 2pm the euro could show a nice hit and the GFS nothing a few hours later. There is a nice storm signal and that's really all that's important at this point. -

It's snowing like a beast. I see it and radar confirms it. Just blasted over 2". Maybe you live in a microclimate.

Love, you Walt, and your a pros pro, of course.....but "To me one bad sign... too much sun 6-8 hrs before an event starts. The classics have a long slow process of thickening and lowering cigs." I mean, really? That sounds like something I might say, LOL. In any event, clouds are lowering and thickening here. Best of luck to all!

Don't worry about dire predictions for the rest of this winter. Last year some of the best and brightest were predicting an epic winter, and we know how that turned out. In these parts very hard to tell what will happen. The stars have to align no matter the overall pattern, and when they do they do. I think that unpredictability and scarcity fuels the obsession.

It seems to me the sleet on the NAM (at least the 3K) is dependent on lighter precip/dry slotting. If we can keep that at bay we can tack on a few more inches. Still time for even more improvements.

I'd say more like 2-3 hrs sleet as depicted, but still moving in the right direction.

I got 23.5" in that one. I think even Southern NJ joined that party, 13.4" at AC airport. This depiction is further north and not as heavy anywhere.
