Do u agree with the temps forecasted

The weekly looks OK imo

the monthly is obviously overdone

 

EURO ens at 240hrs

850mb temps anoms ---north of the border falls in line with milder trends ATM

we know it is guesswork..still the overall look has merit

with a blend of the guidance available

 

GEFS loop for good measure

not a forecast here...just showing the mashup   :nerdsmiley:

The next storm coming up on 1/16 looks insanely annoying. If that primary was a little weaker, it would be enough to dynamically cool from the coastal storm for heavy snow everywhere with a track like the GFS has. Well inland, especially from the Catskills north, might be able to salvage a decent snow event.

NWS seems to think the air will be too dry.

I'm gonna wait for 1-2 more Rgem cycles before we can get a better idea.

Nam has the same general idea as well.

Temps will be cold and only hundredths of an inch of precip could yield a fluffy coating to half inch.

Where did this snow suddenly come from?? at no point during this week was there talk from anyone or any model about light snow b4 the Fri storm

I lean toward the NWS idea. However, as the RGEM is arguably the best short-term model, I'm not completely dismissing its idea. The 18z and 0z runs will be interesting.

Wow....the 12z GFS is much closer to the coast on this run. That's quite a change.

It'd be the miracle of all miracles, but if the first system keeps on speeding up then we could see a slight adjustment further west

The further east the first storm is the better

The first system is way OTS. It's the second system.

That's all because the initial southern S/W gets out the way just in time to allow the height field to recover for the second system. It also created move spacing.

Now we just need the other models to start to catch on to this. I do like that the GFS and the PARA-GFS haven't wavered, though. It gives you a bit of pause.
