All models (except NAM tracks inland with rain SEPA) are snow in SE PA. Legit trackable event. Clearly a Miller B with lp redeveloping off of the DelMarVa and tracking ENE. Definitely not a Southern slider. Fast moving system will keep accums in-check. Doubtful anyone in our region sees totals like S NJ from yesterday. Im all-in.
Not with the surface wind vectors NNE as shown. Perfect spot and wind trajectory on that map. Speaking verbatim on the euro, not my call, but that look likely wouldn't be an issue 95 n and w.
Eta: 850 winds r actually NW.
It is kind of funny if you look at the NAM to see DC and Baltimore crushed but Philly on a fringe, NYC on a fringe, and Boston on the fringe. This one is yours. Enjoy!!
Not really model chaos at all tbh. NAM blows, didn't even have a storm til this AM. Euro also didn't bite until last evening. Those 2 aren't the powerhouse guidance they once were prior to 'upgrades'. Follow the GFS which has led the way.
Won't take much of a wobble either way tbh. It is going to be difficult looking over the river and know "the shore" is getting over a foot and we have mood flakes N and W.
N fringe is going to struggle. Massive CAA push coupled with dry air and a tightening ULL is going to lead to a sharp cutoff near the DE River with ragged light precip N and W.
No towel throwing. Was never sold on much accums up this way. Gung ho on the areas I mentioned tho and feel good about that call right now. Mood flakes to 2" up this way. Up to a 10" stripe across S NJ, Central and S DE. Hrrr also stopped the NW bump fwiw so thats 3 of 4 at 12z to halt N tick so far.
This reminds me of Jan 1987, seashore special. Heavy strip central/southern de across lewes and the Del Bay into Cape May and S Jersey thru ACY. Smoking cirrus up here is very likely.
