E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2025-26 Obs/Discussion
Kevin Reilly replied to LVblizzard's topic in Philadelphia Region
potentially transitioning to a wintry mix of sleet and freezing rain by Sunday afternoon.>>>> see if the NAM agrees here comes the warm tongue again! This would also indicate a strong easterly flow and the storm is quite close to our south and very strong. -
I remember other models chasing a weak low out to sea along a boundary while the “real” low was closer to the coast and moved north in time slowly and took over the show. (I think but not sure could havd been either 2009-2010 or 1996)

I’m in until 12z Thursday think we may see some changes at this point coastal sections could still be in trouble due to a strong onshore flow. I cannot ignore what the gfs was selling last week 977 mb east of NJ then lose it only for the Euro to pick it up 18z to 6z Sunday to Monday then lose it. still a lot of waffling I’d like to see play out either way next 25-36 hours I think we will know. Therefore yes I’m in! -

Looked like on the Euro there was a kicker vort dropping through central Canada into the Dakotas knocking things east off the east coast. Now not sure but I wonder if the gfs picks up on northern stream vorts better? Friday 12z gfs had a 977 mb low east of New Jersey so maybe it was onto something then and it’s bringing back. We shall see but the Euro had it fir a few runs too especially 0z Sunday into Monday. -

Yea, was totally thinking 1996…. Models had that heading due east and the snow shield the important inches and feet stayed well south. Then within about 48 hours out the storm just kept marching further and further north until it was perched off the Jersey shore then just cutoff sits and slowly eased off to the east-northeast. -
You forgot to put a space between this and close when you were typing.

It is Monday!? Oh wait you mean next Monday!

I have a pic of the 12z gfs from Thursday but the pic is too big for this forum totally 977 mb at benchmark.

That’s almost exactly where the GFS had this back on Thursday last week at 977 mb

Remember what the gfs showed 977 east of Delaware!!

January 25-26 Winter Storm Potential

17.6f humidity 95% dew point 16f Moderate Sleet 95% maybe 5% ZR just picking up on a slight glaze on the cars the windows are frosted white. Hard to measure but I would say we had: 8-9" of snow 2.5" of sleet Totals Snow and Sleet: 11" sounds about right to me Shoveled at 9:30 and 2 pm will go out when the storm ends. Where it is just sleeting accumulation, it is a total glacier, and it is very heavy be careful while shoveling. Total snow / sleet on the year: 25.7" (plenty of time to add more too it is only January 25th)
