Well, decided to head up to my parents house in the Hudson Valley of NY where I grew up. Haven’t visited in about a year and I figure why not bring the kids up there for a real storm. Their house sits at about 700 feet of elevation and usually does pretty well in these kind of coastal space. Forecast is 12-18 but you never know with these things.
@ers-wxman1 ruffling some feathers. Not surprising cause he loves to come in when the models are looking bad and get all emotional while spiking the “storm ain’t happening” football. is all I have to say about that.
The NAMs even hoses NYC. They are forecast to get 10-16 in the city with near blizzard conditions. If they get 1-3/dryslot there are gonna be some serious weenie cliff jumpings.
I'm actually kind of excited for this storm. Give me a few hours of steady/heavy snow during the day tomorrow then whatever happens is gravy. Dry slot would be ideal so maybe the ground is still white when it gets cold after the storm. This is a nice way to pad stats if we can do 1-3 or 2-4 on the WAA.
Could just be the second cup of coffee hitting but I'm feeling a little optimistic about this storm for some reason. Feel like we get some better trends today.
Might've been discussed a few pages back but the 06z RGEM is pretty nice for DC. Verbatim it's 5 ish hours of snow, then sleet, then back to some heavy snow before it pulls off, all with temps right at or below freezing.
