It's coming? 1/31-2/1

[WeatherGeek2025]

i'm optimistic in getting a flurry

[nycsnow]

The entire storm looks like garbage on GFS

[North and West]

No legend either.
It it snow? Rain? radiation level? air quality? Number of Olive Garden's per sq mile?

When you’re here, you’re weenied.

This has so many issues now. It’s close to beyond fixable. The trough closes off too early and way too far South. You would want it over VA or WV. You have poor wave spacing and you end up with a ton of junk at 500mb which spawns 2 or 3 different surface lows. And then the final nail is that kicker coming into the Northern plains on Saturday.

I’ll take the over on 45 by Saturday morning the way some keep trying to pull this event from the ashes.

Deadly bomb cyclone headed straight for NYC — and could batter Northeast with even more snow, colder temps

It WOULD be kind of cool to see the outer banks and Myrtle beach get buried.

I would expect Myrtle beach to be mainly rain and end as a period of snow. I doubt they get “buried”

And risk Weather Geek's wrath? I think not.

At least the NY Post is in RJ's corner.

Dead. Not waiting for 0z.  This has nothing going for it.  It’ll keep tugging on the weenies for a few more runs but not mine.

[NEG NAO]

Guaranteed the GFS OP doesn't verify with its Hop Scotching areas of LP .........crazy

“The storm is forecast to blow into town Saturday night and stay through Sunday. It could drop upwards of 3 inches on a region still digging out after more than a foot of snow fell on Sunday and Monday.“

In general, a dominant first coastal low tends to pull the baroclinic zone offshore and the trailing wave further east. The NAM makes the second low the dominant low and that's the solution that would have the best chance of bringing appreciable snows to the coastal plain, not just eastern Long Island or southeastern New England. However, the NAM is just a single model and this is a single run of that model.

We just had a foot of snow. The Hudson River is almost frozen over. And Don is doing a pbp of the 84 hour NAM. Are we this desperate? Should we be looking at the JMA which scored a coup 20 years ago?

[WestBabylonWeather]

I still have slight hope. Having a storm then losing it then correcting back has happened. So I’ll leave the chance open. All hope will be lost if it’s gone tomorrow. 

[nycsnow]

Hopefully some stuff starts to pop up on the models within the next week (gfs hinting around superbowl) would hate to wast more of this record cold.

Tampa and Raleigh might see more flakes than us this weekend… pretty sad lol

[nycsnow]

FWIW euro ai did trend west brings snow back to coastal locations 

[Nibor]

Euro Op coming west. Better trough orientation.
