January 28-30th Possible Nor'easter

Outstanding morning AFD from PHI NWS office this morning.  It lays out the variables and how they affect the final outcome.  Check it out.  A good read.  

Good westward shifts overnight (but for the GFS) but main takeaway is that is that this event still heavily favors I95 south and east over NJ and LI with the heaviest totals.  Having said that there are still going to be shifts and adjustment over the next 24 hours or so and the zone of heaviest totals is yet to be determined.

Def an opportunity to climb to but not a bad starting point at all

all that we need to double our snowfall total from 10 inches to 20 inches is a 20 mile shift (like from the previous NAM to the current one.)  That is some razor thin margin of error right there lol.

..a little off topic in regard to the nor'easter..but KFOK is @ 0°..I'm @ 16°..amazing how KFOK is so close to me & such a wide spread in temps..

HTO (East Hampton) at 3 degrees, so not far off from the FOK 0 temp.

Wow now FOK down to -1 (is this their first below zero this season?)  HTO holding at 3  (edit- HTO now down to 2.)

It just seems weird that the airport sensor seems to be right where the coldest temps on Long Island are-- what a coincidence lol.  Are we sure there isn't some nearby place around there that might be even colder?

This is why models struggle so much with East Coast storm tracks beyond 24-48 hrs. As as been said here by many, it results in the back and forth between runs and models. Small changes make a big difference.

 

 

What causes the nudges? And why cant they be forecast better?
