Thanksgiving Eve SECS/MECS Discussion II

Storm Vista has 1-2" for Western Nassau County and the city - Mostly sleet

2-4" along the NJ turnpike

4-6" for northeast NJ and then south of 80

6-8" for Morris County, Western Passaic and Sussex Counties

8-10" for the stripe that runs from Vernon to Warwick.

Imagine if the models are overdoing the warmth? This can turn out bad it the models are.

sounds pretty good, Upton is way way way too high for the city.  The first call map by them was much better.

Sneaky 700 mb warm layer showing up on Nam tomorrow afternoon in the soundings.

The culprit seems to be an easterly jet at that level.

The 700mb low closes off over DE and then tracks inland up 95, what did you expect?

I'm thinking those maps are counting all frozen as snow like the wxbell ones, right? It seems that during the height of the storm we are sleet at best (in NE NJ for example)....I'd think it would equate to more of a 1-3" range for NE NJ for just snow. 700mb just sneaks in like last run and ruins the entire party

StormVista doesn't suffer from the same problems as WxBell. It's typically much more realistic.
