That's crazy. The 964 mb was the lowest barometric pressure I have ever recorded anywhere in my life. That’s wild. What were the winds like? That has to be 70+ stuff I’d assume given the gradient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Unless they hate winter like @Voyager, they get an excuse) I'm gonna blow your mind, but I am upset. I hate when the I-95 crowd and Philly to NYC gets 2+ feet while we get half of that. I want those 20-30 inch contours to come west into Central PA. Run that low due north right up the NJ coast into Long Island instead of what looks to be a northeast track after the "tuck". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our friend MillvilleWx said the cutoff will be incredibly sharp and painful for weenies somewhere NW of the I95 corridor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago 1 hour ago, Blizzard of 93 said: There is also usually a secondary jackpot outside of the main area depending on where the best bands set up. A low that’s deepening to that level will push some heavy bands well inland. My thinking on this right now is all of C-PA is looking good for at least a higher end advisory event to low end warning totals in the LSV where the watches represent currently. Basically a 3-6” event for everyone is my general baseline right now. NW of I-81 the key to easily meeting or exceeding that range relates to the inverted trough and the meso banding associated with that… as well as how well the initial precip develops as the features start to phase in. For I-81 and points southeast exceeding or perhaps significantly exceeding warning criteria becomes more related to how close the bombing low tucks in towards the Delmarva coastline. If there are going to be excessive totals with this (18-24+ type stuff), I think the low would have to take a track from interior NC THRU the Delmarva and up right along the NJ coastline for that theoretical swath to make it deep into the Sus Valley. Which probably isn’t going to happen. We have a good 500mb western ridge alignment but the axis is a bit east of Boise (ideal C-PA ridge axis). So I do think this low probably will stay a little bit offshore. I think York/Lancaster have the best chance of seeing anything double digit in our subforum, or Chester obviously since we do have a regular in here from there. Modeled trajectory now generally takes this rapidly developing low up from roughly Hatteras, up just offshore of the Delmarva, tucking to varying degrees depending on model, and then fading east to the benchmark (40/70). It’s easily meeting the criteria for bombogenesis on most guidance now, with the 3k NAM deepening 41 mb in 16 hours. The most intense banding would stay pretty tight with that rapid intensification scenario and track. The inverted trough is what keeps the light-moderate going back far into PA, which is aided some of course by this coastal being closer in than what most non-GFS guidance had until well..today. If we didn’t have that feature but still the rapidly bombing low we would have a truly sharp cutoff between a lot and nothing, which would probably reside right in the middle of the Sus Valley. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
