I would also feel more comfy if this was night and not happening during the day with the marginal BL.
Yes especially for lower elevations Delaware River SE fall line elevations that are higher than 350 feet I’m okay with getting the 4-7” so long as banding is ongoing.

Sounds about right. The rgem ticking was huge. I think the better totals will be just east of 95 though, but I guess climo argues otherwise. Regardless anyone complaining about even 3-4” a few days after a mecs and with another event in the day 6 vicinity is nuts. This is awesome! Let’s get some tsnow tomorrow
Well anyone that does get the TSnow gets over 6”

Indeed she does look a bit underprepared! When in doubt do as the nws! I think her forecasting has improved over the last 10 years and this situation is fairly textbook for the met vetrans in the area. Probably a good call but could see this map getting amounts reduced and moved N & W.
Canadian agrees

Light rain 36 here in Media 0.2” of slush on cars pretty much wiped away by rising temps and light rain it was a back and forth affair of light rain to snow to rain.
Maybe the 12z models can pull off a coup to significant snow for Sunday. I’ll go with the Ukie my model of choice since it’s been consistent along with the Euro.
As I speak back to snow here now with a bit of graupel 36

Well CMC was an improvement with 60 hours to go. Ukie has always pretty much had this storm and said it wasn’t dead that will be interesting to see.
The Euro run tonight is a biggie for me.
Either way 12z tomorrow this is getting closer to nailed down.
our last storm 60 hours out and closer in trended easily NE by 150 miles.

Building SE Atlantic Ridge pumping west it appears and changes out west. I think 12z starts the trend remember Euro on Monday showing 6-10”. I mean the GEFS shows rain for some showing the block is allowing the storm north and the SE ridge guiding it further NW.

That sucks:(
The really cool part of that storm was I listened to KYW all day while going coming in and going outside while Elliott Abrams kept upping the totals, it seemed like every hour or two. It was a cold/dry snow which added to the drifting. I think temps were in the mid teens or so....
I was living in NE Philadelphia and the winds were howling down the driveways between row homes. One side was completely bare of snow maybe an inch the other side 5-6 foot drifts. I was 9 years old so snow was up to my waist and the drifts in some cases over my head. I remember the thunder and lighting and also the graupel mixing in with the snow while we had the lighting and low rumbling thunder. I think the next day under the strong Feb 12th sun it made it into the upper 30s. Almost like the storm mixed out the arctic air and replaced it with modified Atlantic air.
Reason I say this last sentence because the air out there at 32 down here doesn’t feel Arctic anymore feels like modified Atlantic air that storm basically flipped every thing.
looking over the models looks like a bit of a war setting up medium long range with the Southeast Ridge and cold coming back from Canada.
Next two weeks could get interesting up and down the east coast with an awakening subtropical jet in play.

Significant retreat of the "polar vortex" cold that was being shown for next week a couple days ago to normal cold, no complaints.
I wonder if that allows the southeast ridge to building sending out Souther miss Sunday back NW time will tell??
