Don’t really have the internet bandwidth to view model runs here, but does it still look like 1:40pm landing at JFK is doable plus 4-5pm driving arrival in central NJ?

Do able but it will be snowing at that point. And even landing at 1:40pm you’ll have snow falling.

(As posted on PHL thread) The very rapid pressure falls (especially if GFS most accurate) off the NJ coast will result in wind gusts of 60 to 70 mph, as winds always overperform standard gradient metrics when pressure is falling very rapidly. This will probably apply to Long Island as well. Some parts of central NJ could easily see over 30 inches of snow. There could be bands of 20-25 inch accumulations further north over metro NYC and Long Island also. Drifting will be severe due to the wind speeds. In open areas there could be 4-6 ft drifts near the end of the event. (would say 6-8 ft in parts of NJ). This is all of course dependent on GFS verifying as to details of the bomb cyclone formation. Would cut most of this down by one third or more if there is a weaker bomb further from NJ to LI coasts. 

It has to be said, this is shaping up to be a potentially very dangerous situation, fortunately the worst conditions may be Sunday night and travel may become impossible by Monday morning which at least will prevent a lot of people from getting into dangerous situations, they will be trapped at home and probably digging out most of Tuesday. 

Temperatures won't be brutally cold but with these wind speeds, wind chills will be a factor. I think temps will stay fairly close to 30F through most of the snowfall period.

accuweather forecasts are the worst and their even worse on the radio side where they have 3-6 inches as of last night..

Thanks, I’m hoping that they’ll be willing to land in light snow.  As for making it back to NJ if we land, I guess I’ll leave my life in the hands of the Uber gods.

Just wild to think of where we were at and what the models were showing ( besides the GFS )  48 hours ago and where we are right now 

I was about to give up Thursday afternoon but the GFS refused to let it go.

never give up good morning, i see some

of my posts were deleted.

 

I think this is just a sign that the westerly trend is over and the models will correct back to around where the GFS is. Remember all models trended towards the GFS yesterday 80% models had nothing. We will see by tomorrow but I honestly still think the euro is the most overrated model there is, icon may be better at this point! We'll see but to me it just looks like the west trend is over and they'll just wobble back and forth between GFS and maybe Euro AI solution!

Agreed I think only Anthony and Weathergeek might have been the only 2 humans to want that to continue - I told my son " I just wish the one weather model that is holding out will cave so I can get some sleep and just end this slow pain "

we pretty much have consensus here, i think it's between nam euro and gfs at this point it's safe to say 10-20 inches are a lock NYC and east, with blizzard winds blowing and drifting definitely a concern! What happens west of Bergen county is still in question and will be ironed out today!

18-24 NYC and west with 24+ NYC and east is my call...lol

I like the model blend idea of a Monmouth and Ocean County NJ to Suffolk County jackpot going potentially 18”+ in those areas. The storm track near or just east of the 40/70 benchmark usually favors this scenario. Most other areas are looking like a solid 12”+. The blizzard conditions will make measurement a challenge and there will be the best drifting potential in years.
