winterwarlock Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 2 minutes ago, MJO812 said: You dont know that. People bash the Nam all the time and now its right ? it certainly led the way detecting the warm nose from its 84 hour run...there is pretty good agreement now that south of 78 will have a changeover to sleet...the question is does it get all the way up the ny/nj border. The high end amount for this storm have all been sliced little by little. The HRRR is always cold and snowier than reality. Im not saying it might only be 4-6, i am saying the warming alot is real. That will prevent those 10-12 inch amounts in central jersey and Nyc and jersey shore im expecting a heavy thump for about 5 hours from 8-1pm and then sleet and then shuts down to snizzle....5-6 inches with an inch of sleet. maybe 6-8 a call for my area 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycsnow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 2 minutes ago, jm1220 said: Well, if there’s 5” of snow at 10-1 ratio (0.5” liquid) then 1” liquid as sleet, that’s 8” total with sleet at 3:1 ratio. And again I don’t think this is gospel correct but it’s been consistent enough today to think it has to be onto something since it’s usually a little better at finding these warm layers, although it often overdoes it somewhat. But what about every other model that’s been locked in for days?

WestBabylonWeather Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Nam has to be overdone. Euro has held. I’ll take the blend. 6-10” on Long Island and then sleet 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycsnow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 8-14 nyc area and if nyc hits double digits better never hear about the NAM and how it nailed 4 warm tongue events in the last 37 years lol….hopefully the colder trends on the other models continue tn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterweatherlover Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I know the NAM has nailed warm tounge events well, on the contrary has it had any significant fails in this situation in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowlover11 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Nam is on its own currently pushing the mixing that far north. Lets see the rest of 0z before bridge jumping here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll see what they say at 0z then I’d say it’s time to look at radar trends and start to buy more into the short range models. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t your normal heavy snow setup for NYC. It’s a typical Nina SWFE that has a better antecedent overrunning dome than normal putting more of us in the game for an initial thump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psv88 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 3 minutes ago, MJO812 said: Nams snow depth is higher than kuchera and 10:1 Now that make sense. 4.5” of snow leads to a snow depth of 6.5”… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 3 minutes ago, MJO812 said: Nams snow depth is higher than kuchera and 10:1 The snow depth might be counting the sleet that’s on the ground in addition to the snow. With the amount of liquid total vs snow amount it shows there could be 2-3” additional as sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warming probably comes from the southeast with the coastal for eastern LI but that's only very late in the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
