Courtesy the EC and Weather.US... I appreciate their data.

I have to think the GFS/SREF has been better than most other modeling, in advance...all catching up to the GFS.  Northern fringe of the GFS can be argued drier but there is no doubt (in my mind) about a high impact storm very close to NYC. I'll fire up the OBS-nowcast thread... lets leave it alone til about 10PM then have at it...keep all the discussion of the storm here til we get to within 6 hours of starting.  Thanks...

Good job on getting this thread started and enjoy.

Here is one EC op model Kuchera solution from the 12z/2 cycle. It's not what the final solution will be, but I'll believe a big 6-12" snowstorm is coming to s NJ and very close to NYC. If its mixed with sleet, amounts less, but removal still difficult.

It’s near 60 in parts of Jersey that will be getting over a foot of snow tomorrow! What a shock to the system the airmass will be tomorrow. 

Looks like it will be the first time that ACY has so much snow on a day in January following a 60°+ day. We pulled this off during the 16-17 winter. But big January ACY snowstorms usually have the cold in place before the storm. So a very spring on the Rockies vibe.

The 1 inch of Liquid Precip is literally 40-50 miles south of NYC... Even without model movement, these storms usually end up being naturally 20-25 miles NW Of final models.. 

 I agree except this is not your typical coastal storm with cold air already in place Trying to hold on.  This is a wave forming on the cold front with some pretty good CAA  under way.  This is one where we need the South East Ridge to hold on longer
