I'm conservative in the sense I'm not expecting 12+ area wide although I guess the 12+ zone would be the part that will be fine tuned over the next few days. Guess we’ll find out soon enough. I’ve seen “locked in” storms fail and I’ve seen “dead” storms come back to life in this very time frame more than a few times over the years. Just IMO the NWS doesn’t think this is locked in just yet if they are launching Hurricane Hunter recon flights and beefing up weather balloon launches to get better data sampling for the models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but I better not see numbers on a map Boy that's over reactive. You need your weather outlets to be within 48 hours before you want them to make a forecast? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Just based on historical climo alone. I know of no cases other than Jan 87 2/11/94 and 2/2014 where the area saw 8 plus near the coast then flipped over. I guess you can argue 2/2008 but that was not a setup like this. In general this type of setup is all snow most of the time NYC vicinity north 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatamy Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 4 minutes ago, MJO812 said: NYC will get 8-12. I dont like the warming trend. Hopefully it cools down. 18z Euro has a front end thump of 7-10” for coastal areas before going to a lighter wintry mix. Inland areas get 10-15”+. The main feature is SLP that is tucked into the Delmarva and southern NJ coast. This is still a significant storm for the area. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why my forecast high is 10F Sunday, and low is 9F Sunday night. It's getting too close for comfort. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatamy Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 We do need to watch the position of the 850 mb low on the Euro AI. These screenshots are from 12z and 18z. It’s getting further north and that will act to promote mid level warming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this is a frozen event but sleet could do a huge number on reducing accumulations. Still it’s much better than freezing rain which would be horrific.

Prue11 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I’m not buying the warmup many weather/news outlets are projecting. I can see some sleet on the back end. But News12 just projected a map where it has temps going into the 30s Sunday evening for all of LI and NYC. Really just don’t see that happening but what do I know, I’m an amateur at this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
