  1. Yes-snow should consolidate and get heavier overnight as the moist easterly flow and strong lift take over.
  2. This will fill in and intensify as it reaches us. The storm is generating a little late for the DC area and models have the most precip to come from Philly on north/east.
  3. Radarscope is good too, you download that on your phone. Looks like the beginnings of the heavy snow are coming together in S NJ.
  4. NAM is gorgeous. Looks maybe a little colder/south to me. Insane snow rates for the morning through mid afternoon for the I-78/I-80 corridor and then spreading north.
  5. That said it's the most amped of the models with it and other models like the NAM have the mid level features a bit to the east. However a fast dry slot is always a threat when the 700 low goes west of you.
  6. It's new (v16) so hard to say how it'll do this close in but the 700 low north of Philly isn't what you want to see near NYC. We want that just off the NJ coast. It's been backing off the huge totals and QPF in this area the last few runs likely because of that- brings the dry slot in faster and also risks more warm air for coastal spots.
  7. This GFS run was a good bit more amped/west than the last one especially with the mid level lows. This run has the 700 low over Bucks County PA which is west enough that verbatim the dry slot can make it east of the city pretty quickly. Of course it's great west of the city but here it's not ideal and would probably mean east of the city stays under a foot.
  8. Revised thoughts: Central Park: 18" JFK: 16" Newark: 20" Middletown, NY: 20" Morristown/Sussex, NJ: 22" Danbury: 20" Bridgeport: 18" White Plains: 21" Asbury Park: 12" Freehold: 18" Montauk: 8" Riverhead: 12" Long Beach: 14" Islip: 16" Me/PSV88/NorthshoreWX: 17" Best chance for 24"+ between I-80 and I-78 in NJ. Maybe north of I-80 also in the good ratios. Mixing does eventually happen for most near the coast but 95% of the precip will have fallen by then other than the twin forks where it really might cut into totals.
  9. Where you see the blues would be where the best lifting is so you'd want to be just NW of it I'd think. But before this there's an insane front end batch of heavy snow anyway which means that the overall difference may be just a few inches or so between NYC and west of town, and by this point on the map the low is starting to occlude which means the snow will become more spotty/banded.
  10. Here's what I mean-it would be best if that 700 low was a bit further east, like offshore NJ. It's really being nitpicky at this point but this is why the heaviest amounts are over N NJ/E PA. Like I said if it happens this way I'll definitely sign on that dotted line.
  11. Yep it was a little better. If the 700 low can track east just a little more it would be ideal for everyone but regardless I'll take the 15" it gives me before any changeover that would likely just be drizzle anyway in the dryslot.
