Interesting frame with snow over the city and rain to the NW, suggesting if rates are heavy enough it can still be just cold enough. (Of course, it could just be one of those NAM things.)
These are the systems in Januarys past with a track like that it would be just cold enough to give us our 3-5", 4-6" inchers. Now they're just warm enough to give us a front end thump (IF the "colder" solutions verify).
Just hoping to cover the grass before any changeover. Is that asking too much in early Jan??
Agreed. That's why I told myself not to get too worked up one way or the other much before 12Z tomorrow. Better yet, I'd like to see where we are with the mesos inside 48hrs. Still could be a lost cause south of I-78 but it's only Wednesday.
I don't think it's that the storm is trending NW so much as the models latching on the the idea a few of us have been expressing -- it hasn't been that cold and there's a relatively warm ocean just off to our east. In this situation, I'd like at see an arctic parked over Quebec with CAA drilling down the coastal plain.
The season is over, this team isn’t going anywhere. They barely beat the Giants here, why have any confidence they’ll win up there?
Note to self: NEVER root for the Cowboys again.
On the news this morning, they showed water temps off AC at 47F. Yes, we have some challenges down this way.
But too early to worry about details this far out, let's get this inside 72 hours.
My non-professional, uninformed opinion is if it turned the coast, it would probably be a rainer. As advertised on the GFS, a system scooting along south of us could work.
I’m all in on the snow drought now, let’s get to 1,000 days!
And when we finally do break the snowless streak, I hope it’s a legit storm and not an inch of slop we get in a 3:1, crocus-crushing, paste job in April 2029.
