At 60 hours on the WSI maps the northern stream and associated jet dynamics are 50-100 miles separated from the main vort. This is the wild card...if and when it catches up, it's almost as if you're lighting a power keg. 

 

Whenever this happens is where all deterministic guidance shows rapid deepening of the surface low and expansion of the precip field.

looks like some convective feedback at 66 , regardless it took a step towards the Euro and dives in earlier .

Not sure how it finishes I have to run ,    inside 48 hours is where this will be key . GN

 

It's not convective feedback, it's a slightly sloppy and disjointed phase. Look at the N stream at 66 hours..that's when it really phases in. That's when the surface low will consolidate and strengthen.

NAM qpf thru 84 hours.  The brunt of the storm is thu pm into fri.  Well out of the NAM range but good trends all day on a much more.amplified system.

At 12:1 ratios (not unreasonable, given the cold temps in the snow nucleation and growth region), this would translate to 3-6" in most of NJ and 6-9" in NE NJ (i.e., the NWS-NYC counties) and NYC metro, LI and the Hudson Valley.  Huge step towards the other models vs. the nearly complete whiff at 0Z.
