  1. It's almost as if the subsidence we were dealing with helped get whatever snow was in the atmosphere down to the ground.
  2. The limited accumulation is a direct result of the sun being clearly visible during the snow and the relatively low rates. If this were a heavier snow I don't think it would have been a problem. Sun angle really isn't an issue. There have been several events where it's in the 60s the day before a good snow here that continued through the daytime in February.
  3. Finally noticing some snow sticking on more than just old snow and cold surfaces out here now eastern LI. Sun finally not shining through the clouds.
  4. Trough axis is again to far west.
  5. the issue is unless you are under heavy rates, the thin cloud layer has allowed the suns energy to warm the blacktops.
  6. Do we ever see heat anomalies 40 to 50 above normal? We do seem to see those types of cold anomalies in the US in recent years...
  7. Models do not show flurries because that is not accumulated precip. Model soundings have had hints at flurries today for awhile.
  8. The nam looks more organized with the weak low associated with the shortwave as it reaches the coast Friday morning. 500mb also looks better.
  9. You can see where there may be problems in CT, and any shift south that could reach LI too. It's a fine line. Never a fan of inverted troughs
  10. Yep, it was too dry with the last event too. I do believe the NAM was more on target and actually had the right idea overall as the even drew closer. I know there were some concerns that models were overdone qpf wife, but we had a good bit of rain out here and the NAM really handled the fact there was gonna be ZR well. Hopefully we can narrow down things on Thursday.
  11. doesnt mean its right. its not the gospel model when it comes to smaller details like what we are looking for with this event.
  12. The 12z NAM has about 0.3 liquid around the city. The nam is a bit noisy with the QPF owing likely to the localized banding potential with the inverted trough.
