Gravity Wave Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Firehose definitely looks to be setting up over Suffolk and Western CT. Pretty significant bust by the short range models given this is happening about 75 miles east of 12Z yesterday. If this were a winter storm we'd all be freaking out. Although the city looks to finish right around 2", which can't be called a bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to see if any of this makes it to the surface. What is this feature currently passing through central Suffolk? Almost looks like outflow. GW?

Essentially a low level front associated with the LLJ, Notice winds to its east are SE and G30-40KT and to the west of it are much lighter from the S. These are the kinds of things that cause severe wind shear (that we saw at LGA earlier). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NAM and RGEM redevelop convection this afternoon within the dry slot so we have to see what happens, but the main slug should be through at least the city by early afternoon.

NJwx85 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Some activity is starting to fire over the Delmarva as expected. Although the organized heavy rain is coming to an end, anything more will only be insult to injury at this point. The HRRR has up to an additional half inch in places with the afternoon scattered activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a repeat of the Jan 2015 storm where both the NAM and EURO were saying we were going to get 30-40 inches of snow and the 30" totals were out at Orient Pt lol. We got our 30 incher the following January though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be at least another 2-3 hours before it's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
