Can't stay up for PPV AccuWx 6 hour EC maps, on the free PSU e-Wall version, the low moves in 24 hours from near Cincinnati to just East of Boston, with no obvious signs to this amateur hobbyist of a secondary.

 

It is mostly snow in BOS per PPV text...

 

GFS not super well supported by ensemble means

It's not a bowling ball scenario....I see no closed h5 low bowling its way east....it's called a re-developer

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Its a bowling ball in the sense that it comes under the PV ...................................... It doesnt go to Madison wisc like progged to 4 days ago ...

The system cut thru the Ohio valley , its irrelevant that it secondaries.

The 12z models should be interesting. Especially since now the the 06z gfs has Come further North. Starting to womder if this is the beginning of a bad trend for NYC hopefully the12z euro Comes in South of the 0z!!!!!!!!!

Guys, don't write this event on or off just yet; this is what Upton said this morning about the potential event for Fri:

 

MODELS ARE SIGNALING POTENTIAL FOR
A MORE SIGNIFICANT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TO END THE WEEK/START THE
WEEKEND AS A RESULT. BUT BECAUSE THE ENERGY FOR THIS SYSTEM IS STILL
IN THE BERING SEA AND NOT EXPECTED TO WORK INTO THE WEST COAST
TILL MIDWEEK THERE IS AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY ON DETAILS
AT THIS TIME. THIS IS BORNE OUT BY THE STILL WIDE RANGE OF MEDIUM
RANGE OPERATIONAL MODEL AND ENSEMBLE MEMBER SOLUTIONS

The trend north needs to stop. Have no room for error anymore

HR 90 850`s are minus 18 . 24 hrs later it scours it all out ?  Wait until this thing is in the plains Tues AM  and sees all that low level cold air  , its in the Bering Sea , plenty of time to sort .

It doesnt mean it cant scour it , but it exits off NJ .

5 DAYS AWAY . way early to call for accum . wait until Tues AM

Thats a lot of dense cold air to displace .

I'd have to agree with you here. I'm almost positive that the models will trend colder, and I'm also fairly confident in AT LEAST a 3-6" snowfall for our area, with 50% chance of even 6"+

I generally do not like SW flow events for this area which involve some sort of ridge out west, those tend to trend north as the event gets closer...you usually want to see a shallow trof along the West Coast like 12/19/08 which keeps the wave somewhat suppressed and the flow progressive...the ridging out west can allow too much digging and amplification over the Ohio Valley and as a result the system goes north.

850 temp is not low level it's mid levels which usually warm up fast since its a south westerly flow. The gfs is never good with cad and low level cold which is more of an ice situation

I generally like less amplified solutions like 2-22-08 for the coastal sections not to change to a mix and then rain.

But the marginal NAO will allow the PV inch east while the SE Ridge creeps up just enough to warm the coastal

sections with too amplified a solution.

12z ensembles look colder too me. I nvr do precip type day. 5. But sure ice is something that pops up in sits like ths

12z GFS data for KMMU - 12 hour event, changes to rain even that far inland

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Its a bowling ball in the sense that it comes under the PV ...................................... It doesnt go to Madison wisc like progged to 4 days ago ...

The system cut thru the Ohio valley , its irrelevant that it secondaries.

It's not a bowling...it just cuts under the vortex....

I find it weird that the models are driving this storm west with all the cold air around.

What does cold air by itself have to do with it? Is there anything to keep the cold air in place? Most of you are too young to remember but in 1994 it was -1 in the AM and 24 hours later in 55 with rain. This 22 degree cold is hardly cold.
