Nam is a good 50-100 miles further NW with the precip shield in the south at 45 hrs.

This is not going to be a very pretty solution for coastal regions. 500mb low is already closed off at 42 compared to 6z at 48 when it wasn't closed yet. The Polar Vortex is retreated further to the north and the east-based block is even further to the east.

Disagree very strongly. 850 and 700 lows are going to take over and start to drain fresh dry and cooler air into the system. Maybe for the coastal regions of jersey its not good but up in the nyc metrol this run should be a.o.k once it gets going.

EDIT: This is assuming the precip makes it up here. NAM may still be a scraper.

Im not going to claim to be an expert in upstream dynamics, but the kicker out in the s/w is being closed off by the NAM this run.

Yep, you're right based off later panels. When I'm gonna learn that I can't extrapolate model runs? :(

Likely a scraper... but let the run play out.

To me the with the NAM to this point:

@ 45 the Low is in South Central Georgia

@ 51 the Low is off the NC/SC coast.

At that angle will it be able to make the turn or more OTS?

Especially the NAM...extrapolating that model is like Helen Keller throwing darts at a dart board.

The model never gets the storm really consolidated and that doesnt shock me since its still in the models extended range. Based off the SREFS, RSM, and the 00z suite from last night, this is the se edge of the solution envelope IMHO.

Morning update from Elliot Abrams at AccuWX for Philly:

Storm coming too close to the coast, floods area with mild Atlantic air, rain at the height of the storm if not throughout the duration of the storm - temps into the 40's

Change to wet snow still not off the table but not likely

Elliot has been forecasting for the Philly region for what, 35-40 years? His thoughts carry a lot of weight, in my opinion. There's still time to iron out the details, but I wouldn't discount his ideas at this point.

I don't doubt you one bit, but I think all options are still on the table. It would be very unlikely to see that level of Gulf interaction and weakness along the EC, yet still watch this thing crawl OTS. It just wouldn't make sense for this to be a "Miller M"

yes, everything is on the table, but this solution is on the edge of the table and can fall off very quickly.

But darts is all muscle memory. :weight_lift:

I like the 6Z GFS putting down almost .9" of frozen QPF early on 1/27 in a 3 hour period at KACY. Highly unlikely to verify, but enjoyed seeing it this morning.

No question about that but the only model that has his back is the GEM OP which is now actually trending away from that solution. I give him full marks for guts and not model hugging.
