  1. 6.5" here! can't believe we're going to see widespread 6-12" totals in NNJ, LI, and the LHV (heat island spots in inner NYC notwithstanding)
  2. lol what happened to the ECMWF? what a good event for so many... we needed this. got around 6 - 8" down by me
  3. more than decent, no? nice to see that it held. very consistent
  4. all you can do is laugh. I have never seen anything like this with a system of this type. this may happen with phasers like Boxing Day or Juno (Jan 2015), but a southern stream vort running into confluence? unheard of. it is baffling
  5. given the maturing mid-levels in a great spot S of LI, wouldn't shock me to see persistent 1-2"/hr rates. this is especially true given the crosshair signature in NNJ... this is a cross section for MMU showing considerable lift situated in the DGZ with multiple hours of 0.2"/hr of QPF going 6-10" for Morristown, 5-8" for NYC with upside for more if banding ends up strong. I have a hunch it will. this is for colder surfaces... there will be less on pavements
  6. all of this was due to a busted severe outbreak. the latent heat release that sparked the vort amplification never happened
  7. HREF is going to shift SE with the main snowfall axis. rates tomorrow morning are absurd. widespread 1.5-2" per hour rates
  8. there is a stacked, strengthening mid-level ULL south of LI... this often fosters the development of a CCB in the NYC area. we have seen significant shifts today that has placed NYC firmly in the axis of heaviest snow
  9. mid level pass is great for the metro… stacked 500/700/850mb lows with a CCB sig
  10. this is a hilarious 700mb trend. greatest VVs have moved like 100 miles SE since 00z
  11. everything continues to trend south. seems like models overdid the strength of the vort. not overly surprised, happens quite a bit in the short range
  12. you are relying on a potent 500mb shortwave here… the ECMWF accomplishes that with a great 500mb pass. i do think that it’s notable that the ECMWF is digging in under 96 hours out
  13. @snowman19 i agree. describing complex synoptic evolutions also amuses me
  14. can see how the weaker backside energy leads to the vort maintaining latitude. also leads to lower heights downstream in SE canada
  15. can see how the weaker backside energy leads to the vort maintaining latitude. also leads to lower heights downstream in SE canada
  16. EPS holds steady... OP was firmly on the northern end of the envelope
