Those areas are Philly/Mt Holly, so not sure. I think they were at 6-8 at one point yesterday for Allentown. I'm in the State College CWA, and a lot of us in our sub-forum felt that they were being extremely bullish with their forecasts despite most of the models showing otherwise. FWIW, this morning, I am already sitting at 33 degrees up here in the coal region between Allentown and Scranton.

Yes I am taking a trip to Jim Thorpe shortly to make sure my summer home is in order and hopefully no tree damage.  I'll be back before sunset, I hope it doesn't start while I'm there and I get stuck lol.  That house is near Lake Harmony and close to 2,000 ft.

Lol rough morning here.  Cancelling all great expectations and just hoping for  substance the snowblower can actually pick up and throw at this point.  Was a fun an  an interminable week leading up to the event but seems the trailer will be better than the movie for this one.

Fixed.

Interesting to see how cold the HREF is at 2m lol

I just looked at that. See to me that makes sense instead of euro 32 to Kevin. You can see it’s not the true arctic air in central MA, but that’s going to advect into the ZR area. At least that’s how I imagine it? We’ll see what nam does.

Scoots pointed out to me that we are advercting in cold and lower dews during storm.. that’s exactjy what happened in 08 ORH storm . That’s why you take the under on 2m temps . Models had that one milder at 2m too 

That's exactly what will happen in this storm. The very low Arctic dews are going to be advecting south during the event. This is where I think models are the worst. They put too much emphasis on latent heat in that scenario and not enough on advection of dews.

That’s very good news for us . Do you see Central Park getting 4 inches tops? Reminds me of November 15th event here in nyc. It snowed for 4-5 hours for 6 inches and it changed to rain. The models don’t really account the evaporative and dynamic cooling so we’ll have to watch that at the onset.

4 inches for Central Park and 10 inches for Boston

So would you say the 32 isotherm never makes it north of say Hull- MMU- GON?
