Basically nothing for nyc, south shore and ne nj I'm not too concerned about it at this stage and it also cut back on precip in general which probably made it a warmer outcome. If the Euro cuts back a significant amount I'll be concerned but the other models seem to be holding steady. If this bumps back north at the end, no one should be surprised because almost every SWFE does that and it'll mean a lot for many of us since most of this subforum has no margin for error. I'm hopeful for a good event here but am totally prepared if at the last second it fails like the others. Just add that to the kicks to the teeth from this "winter". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I believe the HRRR, GFS, and Euro are currently the only models that look decent for NYC/Coast. I looked again and RGEM is ok too. I'm defining decent as 2+ inches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwx21 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 UKMET is a crazy model that I don't put much stock in, but NAM and RGEM are dangerously close to giving us almost nothing here. Definitely nervous being so close to the edge. Could get 4 inches or just a slushy coating. I'm anxiously waiting for the Euro, hoping it holds its colder solution to give me more confidence that there's a decent chance that we'll get a few inches here.

We're close to nowcast time but I'd say we have until 12z tomorrow before we can breathe the "last second SWFE north bump isn't happening" sigh of relief. We're not at the range where HRRR and RAP are particularly useful. Hopefully the NAM is just a touch too warm at the mid levels, but it will almost certainly be more correct than other models. As far as I saw the other models basically held serve so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynwx99 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 the UKMET is awful with thermals. I wouldn't pay too much attention to its accumulation forecasts in marginal situations. I'd expect 1 - 3" in the city 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU848789 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 The night before the snowfall that could provide ten times as much snow vs. what we've had this entire winter through almost the end of February and there's nobody posting on the Euro. Might have to give you folks a timeout, lol. Anyway, not going to do analysis, other than to say the output is very similar to 18Z, which is good, as other models have pulled back a bit on snowfall vs. 18Z (not hugely, but moreso on the southern fringes, i.e., where I live). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You speak the truth but in all fairness I think that people are so beaten down by this winter that they wont believe anything (even if the morning models hold serve) until they see it outside their windows 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing snow fall is like seeing the Mets win a playoff game. There is definitely bust potential on both the upside and downside especially for those who are closer to the southern edge of the snow line IMO.

I am going to go out on a limb here but I think places closer to the southern edge are going to do better then currently forecast. I am sticking with 2-4" for my area in Middlesex County primarily north of the Driscoll Bridge. We don't even have a WWA here yet meanwhile Somerset Co. to my west does, Union Co. to my north does and Staten Island to my east does. Makes no sense IMO. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
