  1. Yes....low elevations to the E of the ORH hills did fine. Sure, it was 16-18" instead of 36-42", but...
  2. I would rather play the odds with the CF, than be in an interior valley with on an easterly fetch aloft with a marginal air mass.
  3. This is why the exact position of the high will be so important....if I am west of the cf, and winds are NNE, there will be power issues from a great deal of paste. East of the CF, Winds are ENE and its rain. Maybe a sharp gradient....
  4. I would not want to be in an interior valley....I'd rather take my chances near the ocean in ne MA.
  5. Low elevation can make out fine, as long as you don't have elevations to your north or east....and have sufficient latitude.
  6. I wasn't mentioning them as two, discrete issues...they are related...ie more moderate SSTs is more conducive to skating by with a tepid air mass.
  7. I have been mentioning that as a potential ceiling for a couple of days....
  8. Climo/SSTS are also more favorable than they were on 12/3, which negates some of the limitations with regard to the airmass.
  9. I didn't see that on the GEFS mean...GEM ens mean, I did...nothing drastic, but north...
  10. GEM ensemble trended a hair north over OH...not what we wanted to see. Confluence backed off a bit this run.
  11. Nor am I going to quibble over intensity nuances on a deterministic solution. Same idea RE general storm evolution.
  12. Riding the line, regardless. Better than having the line 30mi north of me.
  13. Looks good north of Boston. Sorry it blows for YBY
  14. It was a little east...out on Long island.
  15. Dec 92 snowed 18" in the Wilmington swamps. Latitude matters, too.
  16. Yea, but just discussing the run. I'll be more concerns if ens follow.
  17. I don't care what the verbatim output implies...I'll sell big snows here with a low over NYC in a marginal airmass. Ugly run.
  18. That run followed the trend in the other ops of tucking...not good. Hopefully ensembles don't do that.
