    Its ens members are more supportive than the op itself. Bears watching.

    Euro hours of mixing to rain Thurs
  3. Ralph Wiggum
    Temp actually dipped to 26f here

    NAM is the driest of all mesos for today. Either leading the pack and onto something or out to lunch.
  6. Ralph Wiggum
    Tuesday is likely DOA. However a more.amped Tuesday sets up the thermal boundary for a potebtially better Thursday. Losing optimism on both tbh but we'll see what happens. One system at a time.
  7. Ralph Wiggum
    Odd that the HRRR and nam traded spots and hrrr is more juicy?
  8. Ralph Wiggum
    26F here and a stray flake every so often.
  9. Ralph Wiggum
    I feel for the MA crew. Outside of a March 58 redux, its over down there for all intents and purposes.

    Para gfs and euro and big ticket ice events just N and W. Likely extreme outliers tho but take note anyway. Elephant in the room is the PV lurking. Add icon to the mild list....also considered the new king by many.
  11. Ralph Wiggum
    GFS para looks closer to euro. Epic icing Tuesday just N and W. Frozen Thursday then a brief 12 hr warmup before polar front presses thru. More frozen in the LR.
  12. Ralph Wiggum
    So do we go with the Euro has been crud lately theory and ignore it? Or does it have support with the seasonal trend to turn cutters into coastals?
  13. Ralph Wiggum
    Yet the Euro has barely a drop of non-frozen the entire run for most of PA and temps well BN. Euro mostly all snow the same period where the GFS is 60 and rain. One will fail terribly.
  14. Ralph Wiggum
    ICON is colder. Light rain to fzra and sleet overnight Sunday into early Monday AM with that rogue wave.
  15. Ralph Wiggum
    It will almost undoubtedly get into the mid 30s at points during this extended wave train. I never bought into those extreme looks the NAM was showing though. You cant drive a low into Lake Erie with a molasses HP, nao ridging, and the PV sitting there. No place for that surface low to go but under us on Tuesday. Temps will be close but not a full blown warm flooding rainstorm. Probably trends back to a significant icing event tbh.
  16. Ralph Wiggum
    0z NAM much colder for Tuesday. Low pressure tracks into the Tenn Valley then jumps the coast. Close to a mostly frozen event now.
  17. Ralph Wiggum
    Setting up a bigger Thursday system. Its not going to be that mild as the RGEM.
  18. Ralph Wiggum
    NAM is on the extreme end of guidance with the warmth. I dont see it this go around.
  19. Ralph Wiggum
    NAM has been crushing it lately.
  20. Ralph Wiggum
    Model mayhem. Wonder which of these waves/threats ends up the surprise.
  21. Ralph Wiggum
    I think temps will be .lower than progged ie marginal areas such as ours may remain quite cold at the surface. The question really is how much precip. Wont take much.
  22. Ralph Wiggum
    Which model would handle the current snowpack's effect on 10m temps best? The 3k NAM? Or does no model account for that?
  23. Ralph Wiggum
    Euro is 12 hrs of ice accretion SE PA and part of central NJ from 1pm tomorrow thru Sunday sunrise with freezing drizzle still falling at that time.
  24. Ralph Wiggum
    Keep in mind, I know up my way there is still a solid and sometimes deep snowpack that is still fresh (snow on snow on snow). This is massive insulation at the ground and could make all the difference when talking a matter of 1 or 2 degrees at the surface and time need to scour out the colder surface. It certainly isn't melting much today. 27F
  25. Ralph Wiggum
    I'm not sure how widespread the more significant icing will be in this region, but where there is will be a smaller geographical stripe of pure ice during this fz drizzle and light fz showers it will certainly be quote impacted. Could easily see a stripe of .3" or slightly more accretion in the region. Looks bad for areas just SW of our region also. As others have said, this could certainly come as a surprise to some when they wake up Sunday AM and look outside.
