January 25-26 Winter Storm Potential

Gfs isn’t alone, the NWS blend has also been showing big totals as well and pretty much all snow.

18z Euros.  Still think tomorrow with the 0zs and 12zs will be "go time" (including the NAM) -

And so you proceeeded to send me down the rabbit hole to sub to that.  I remember when they first came out and were free (for some stuff).  But times change... 

Their 18z GFS 282 hr sleet map - still looks to be down just below Philly metro.

Lazy me goes back and finds it was quoted post from Jan 13 lmao 

Im done brain nap time

Seems to me that the north trend stopped with 0z last night. Models have been pretty consistent today. Now we just need them to converge on a solution.

Maybe we do get a compromise, which would still be nice. The floor for this one looks to be 6 inches plus sleet which is a high floor.

Folks will need to measure and wipe their snowboards as the sleet begins (plus run out and shovel). Sleet counts as snow albeit at about 3:1 a bit slower accumulations!

Sorry I thought EURO was swinging better. I’m doing copium trying to breath life into the GFS

Euro is beautiful.

I do not write much, but the Euro AIFS model forms the transferred low visibly east of the Euro operational model, and as a result, proposes a slightly, but critical colder solution. 850 mb temperatures are 1 degree C colder, and, though it matters less, surface temperatures right around the Philly area are a full 3-4 degrees F colder. The snow difference is significant. The 10:1 ratio snow difference is 4 inches. Though Weatherbell does not show Kuchera accumulations for the AIFS model, one would have to assume that the difference would be 6" of snow.

Initial snow+sleet forecast... main issue will obviously be the mixing that comes in on Sunday, mainly along and east of I-95. Very excited as my kid is 6 and has not seen a 6"+ snow event.

This would work for sure

Helpful for the drought long term.
