E PA/NJ/DE Winter 2025-26 Obs/Discussion

Me after seeing the overnight runs 

That’s how I felt after waking up, but looking at 6z data I wouldn’t be shocked if we see some pretty good improvements at 12z runs. Not going to see a 3’ event like yesterday’s cmc but a SECS is on the table especially in DE and S NJ

Someone (who you can't name because the forum will explode) gave sound reasoning as to why this might not happen and welp lmfao.

 

That being said there is tons of time yet. Hopefully this is one of those scenarios where it was lost on modeling and gets brought back.

Yeah I agree...just feel like we need heavy rates or we risk it being white rain

Both the Euro and GFS and Euro AI ensembles all had snow totals tick up a bit from 6z vs 0z. With some adds on the southern flank.

Actually you want the MJO to be in phase 8 or phase 1. 

Yup and it was there for the last couple storms but not now!

Fog should slowly diminish later this morning. We should see some light rain across especially for spots north of the PA Turnpike this afternoon. Rain amounts look light with most spots less than 0.15". Today’s temperatures will be in the low 40's just about average for the date. Rain chances to ramp up again tomorrow night and especially Friday with more significant rain expected. Snow chances look to increase by Sunday but way too early to nail down specifics.

I was somewhat surprised at how big of a jump the EPS made also.

The euro op was really close to a significant event for all of us and it was a lot flatter vs 6z rgem/ukie.

Just as I had a bad feeling about 00z runs, I have a sneaking suspicion we’re about to have a fun 12z suite
