  1. I been saying that plus a banana high over NY State. Legit threat.
  2. King GFS leading the way for the late week mix blaster. 12z even better....check it out
  3. Taking the positive weenie approach with this suite and telling myself "it will continue to trend more favorable now that the energy is getting properly sampled"....
  4. Legend has it dial-up was painstakingly slow at the time and they needed to utilize Paul Revere to hand deliver the Ukie maps. Is it true that "The British are Coming" was actually code for "The Ukie is honking"?
  5. Ditto. ICON, Euro, and GFS have been off and on with this one. Going to depend on how the gradient plays out and how much energy ejects out of the West, if it is consolidated or sheared, NS CAA push, and timing of said boundaries/waves. But that's like every system...always dependent on the preceding system.
  6. Heavy rain changing to ice...because that scenario always pans out. But it is King GFS so yeah. Seriously tho....it would be funny now that the Ukie and others lost it if the GFS somehow leads the way with this one.
  7. 6z GFS pressed the wave South for this week then has the late weekend system as well then has like 2 or 3 other frozen events this run. Here are Thurs-Fri totals fwiw. Low confidence in this one happening but posting it for discussion:
  8. Timing diffs, not a huge surprise at range. Looks like we have a very brief 'relax'/gradient pattern thru Thurs-Friday then we go right back into an active/trackable pattern. Works for me....reload it.
  9. I dont agree with how the Ukie is combining the 2 waves into one solid frozen event, so color me skeptical. 2 separate waves would work though as I've been alluding to if we sacrifice the Thursday-Friday system and the trailing energy moves thru Saturday-Sunday with smaller bandwidth between the systems.
  10. I know, NAM at 84....but also has the trailing wave out in New Mexico much like other guidance that moves it thru next weekend with wintry precip. So looks like warm sector midweek. Then cold front passage with rain Thursday ish. Then we look to the weekend with fresh cold air source in place and disturbances moving thru. The pattern 'relax' looks extremely short-lived.
  11. Dont sleep on the late week threat. Euro is a frozen mixed mess and the Ukie is a SECS/MECS.
  12. 18z gefs took a step back for the late week slop. But hangs a piece of stj energy back and moves that thru late in the weekend. That could work if the first system fails Thurs/Fri with the shorter wavelength now being depicted between systems. 18z gfs was a nice active look from start to finish.
  13. While I completely agree about being gradient driven, we have gone in 2 days from a complete cutter up thru the Great Lakes to a decent wave tracking thru PA, to now a wave tracking under us. Definitely wouldn't call it flooding rains at this point. Heck if the trend co tines it could be squashed down in VA and NC. Just something to watch for now but seeing those moves over the last couple days one has to wonder if this is going to have some tricks up the sleeve.
  14. Euro honking for later in the week. When within 84 hrs I'll tag you in a post. Eta: CMC with the strong arctic HP anchored over the Northeast and precip punching in....also on board
  15. Tapering down now after that heavy burst. Off to work. Looking forward to seeing totals later!
  16. That is the upper level energy rolling thru. Rounding base of trough.
  17. Still snowing heaviest of the morning here. 19F. Snow total above not final yet.
  18. Measured 5" in addition to the 1.5" yesterday puts Warminster at 6.5" for this one so far.
