Possible NYC snow Wed Night or Thursday

need the wind direction to stay out of the n- ne - so the placement of the HP is critical along with the exact track of the storm - the more easterly wind component = less frozen

thanks for your input NAO

 

I  think the tandem movement  shown in the wpc guidance today,

 makes for very little snow accumulation in the metro    :ph34r:

 

 

enhanced for clarity

The other problem is that remnant low over the Great Lakes if we get an incomplete/partial phase. That creates more E/SE winds at the coast which warms the lower levels.

Re: the 00z GFS... that southern vortmax is rather well colocated with the divergent quadrant of the upper jet streak over the southern Appalachians by early Wednesday UTC, but surface cyclogenesis is occurring several hundred miles east of there. My best guess is that the frontal zone trailing the big Great Lakes system drags the best baroclinicity offshore, which seems (?) to be confirmed looping 850 mb temps.
