The Monday event is “ticking” NW today because of the SE ridge press and lack of a -NAO block….this is why the risk for Friday is an inland runner, I think that event most likely ends up further west than what the Euro and the other models are showing right now as we get closer to that event. Models underestimating the SE ridge until we get right up to the event. Once that shortwave amps for Friday’s event, there’s no -NAO block to force secondary redevelopment off shore or tame the SE ridge. If there’s any thunderstorm blowups over the SE as the storm develops, the latent heat release aloft from the t-storms pumps the SE ridge even more 

You called me a weenie for saying this current storm is going to come north. There will be a limit due to the fast flow.

You need to at least admit that your bashing of the gfs was wrong with this system…..

The GFS had a very rare good moment with this storm yes I will admit. However I still don’t think it’s correct with the very northern edge of the precip it shows as accumulating snow, look at the sounding, that’s virga, it’s not going to overcome that dry layer. But yea, all in all the GFS did well this time

Fine details like that will only be fined tuned as we get closer. But overall, it had the correct idea. Biggest issues is that people are going to expect it to be correct next time lol

Maybe this first Nino-like WWB and STJ enhanced  storm track can be a preview of an El Niño for next winter? But then we’’ll need the WPAC to back off an let it couple. So we’ll see how things go.

I'm enjoying following the sst evolution related to those wind anomalies currently. It's nice to see the Indonesian waters cooling off for a change. The persistent convection in that area probably played a roll in that as well.

It would be pretty wild if the record Aleutians block actually triggered an El Niño event.

Morning thoughts…

It will be mostly cloudy and unseasonably mild today. Temperatures will fall rapidly late in the day or at night. High temperatures will likely reach mainly the middle and upper 50s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 55°

Newark: 58°

Philadelphia: 62°

A developing storm will bring a moderate snowfall to parts of the Middle Atlantic region late tonight and tomorrow. There has been a pronounced increase in snowfall amounts to the north on the overnight EPS. The differences between the 1/1 12z and 1/2 0z runs include: New York: 0% 1”; 29% 1”; Philadelphia: 4% 2”; 57% 2”; Washington, DC: 6% 4”; 63% 4”.

Initial snowfall estimates include: Atlantic City: 4”-8”; Baltimore: 3”-6”; Islip: 1”-2”; New York City: 0.5” or less; Newark: 1” or less; Norfolk: 1” or less; Philadelphia: 2”-4”; Richmond: 3”-6”; Salisbury: 4”-8”; Washington, DC: 3”-6”; and, Wilmington, DE: 3”-6”

Any model that we can trust ?

I don’t mind waiting until the day before a storm for the models to settle on snowfall amounts. This seems to be common for us. But it’s more of a problem when the day before forecast is way off. The NAM was the  model that got the January 2016 record snowfall event correct the day before while the Euro was too suppressed. January 2015 was a disappointment for most areas west of Suffolk based on forecasts the day before. So it doesn’t pay to get invested in snowfall amounts beyond a day or two.

60 degrees here right now. I just went for a run outside with a t-shirt on, and it's possible I could be shoveling snow tomorrow. A Colorado-like weather swing that's becoming much more common for our area.

 Yup imagine we grab a couple of inches tomorrow and a moderate snowfall next Friday.  Most of the area would be above normal snowfall With a plus 5 departure for the 1st 5 and a 1/2 weeks of Winter
