January 26-27 Storm Threat

I think more of a full Lat neg trough which drives the direction more west. a neg base of a trough that is neutral does not exert the influence IMHO

Thanks, Steve. I see what you are saying now.

FWIW, someone at the whale game in Springfield asked me what things were looking like for our area in CT and while I hate to throw out numbers this far out I said I could see something like an 8-16'' type event here.

Exactly...briefly the 0C line goes JUST north of BOS before quickly crashing back. And even then the temp maybe is +0.5 or +1 which can be overcome in precip that heavy. But low levels stay cold so it's snow or sleet.

You also have the comma head coming over us. Dynamics will limit any taint. I never heard of comma head IP. But, of course the track may easily get closer to us.

I mentioned it before, but don't forget that this arctic episode is going to knock the marine layer on it's azz well out into the atl, so that is going buy the immediate coastline a bit more time than they normally would expect.

I still worry this might end up over MTP, but I like to see a track east of the Cape to lock in 32F or lower.

And even before the cold, the ocean is chilly. Upper 30s now. Flying north, I saw plenty of ice in protected inlets.

Maybe I should be liking these 0Z runs. The last Noreaster at this stage I think most models were out to sea and trended west the last few days. A trend west this time could finally get a good event out here. I'm afraid the central and western NY people are finished though....after a few days of thinking this was their storm.

Where is this tracking in relation to the GFS?
