White Gorilla Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Still a long way to go as far as model confidence as far as I am concerned. Better data sampling tomorrow and Friday should bring all this into better focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metasequoia Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 This looks very icy for NYC at the end of the NAM's run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allgame830 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 That NAM run is a worst case scenario for the city NW up to I-84 with dangerous icing. Let’s hope it is just too amped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat5hurricane Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Since it seems like a big snow event is becoming a remote possibility for the coast, I'm hoping for a north trend and plain rain. No interest in an ice storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it rains in my experience it's going to rain up into Essex and Hudson as well. You get over to the Watchungs and it will probably sleet longer. Just really not a storm to get excited about; more one we want to survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree this is not a snowstorm for the coast or near the coast, maybe a front end thump in the best case scenario but the icing threat is starting to look very real especially for anyone away the immediate coast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No interest in an ice storm. It's becoming a remote possibility for most of NJ from what I see here. I got a feeling we are in for some kind of ice, and like you I am hoping it isn't long duration and it flips to all rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJwx85 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Not much sleet with this storm. It’s going to be snow to freezing rain to rain at the coast and snow to freezing rain inland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJwx85 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Also the NAM is well out of range. I’d start giving it more weight this time tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJO812 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I wonder if this storm is going to be like the November storm where the area was supposed to change over but we got a few inches before it changed to sleet. There will be cold air in place before the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These scenarios can go either way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These scenarios can go either way That system approached from almost due south as far as the WAA push. That is usually a classic scenario where we do well in the overrunning snow. This one is too WSW-ENE. I wouldn’t expect it to be anywhere near as good. Most of the overrunning will tend to initially go to our north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad news at the moment is the NAM has a tendency towards south biases with SWFE type storms beyond 48-60. If this is its south bias...then bye Felicia lol.

The one after will def be all rain too and then maybe the pattern will get better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
