Writing was om the wall yesterday, despite some enthralled by ensemble erotica.

It didn't look great yesterday....but ensemble guidance is typically still going to be more accurate at d4-5 than OP runs. That said, there was a clear split in the ensemble guidance...and the trend has been toward the more eastern members.

It's usually a red flag when we can't get one single OP run from at least one decent model to give a big hit....I've seen it not happen and then it trends big toward a western ensemble guidance...but it's pretty rare.

Exactly. OPs aren't useless at day 4 and not one had a big solution.

Usually SNE does way better than the NYC area in bad winters down here but it's been awful for everyone except for Maine.

Enjoy your gusty line segment tonight. Maybe if you're lucky you can get some small hail to bounce off the noggin or the grand prize of them all...a brief quick TOR

If you run a line about 30 miles south of Binghamton and Albany to near the MAss/NH border to the south shore of Maine, to about 30 miles north of NYC and 20 miles north of the LI sound you've had a bad winter, but at least a storm or two or three. I had 12 inches from the December 2-3 storm and a grand total of 8.5 inches since. Anywhere south of that line you just haven't had anything worth even mentioning.

Still a handful of notable ensemble members near the benchmark

Yeah... low probability for sure, but it isn’t over here. Lots of spiking and high fiving over an event that’s still 4 days away.

Weve never seen forecasts change at that lead time.

It could tick back a bit. Big event is gone but advisory scraps are still on the table...they’re just at the edges and about to fall off.

There is likely to be a broader area of light snow from the IVT if this doesn't come back....that trough is still going south of LI, so it wouldn't be that surprising to see a lot of C-2" totals.

Not very exciting, but it's on the table....just so that people aren't expecting sunny skies and then say "I thought the snow was gonna miss us!!11!!!"....

Yeah. I think since Dec 1st Bridgeport has had like 12 inches of rain and only 4 inches of snow.

There is like a mass emergence of insects here this morning. Swarms everywhere.

This is something to really watch. Could catch people off guard but this is a pretty decent signal showing up. Could really be enhanced should any narrow zone of fronto either develop over eastern sections or traverse over eastern sections.

Yeah it was bad in Orh but they have experienced much worst. Closer to Boston-providence-nyc it was a disaster.
