I'd love the suny MM5, although its not exactly dec 26th material. some parts of eastern NJ saw 2-2.5" QPF from that storm, and this model only shows 1.75" at best (comparable to recent EMCWF runs), with paltry ratios coming from the marginally cold 1000-800mb layer. I'd say a max of 18" along the southern half of the NJTurnpike from staten island to about wilmington, DE would fall on this run. That said, its an amazing depiction by a model that has been known for nailing mesoscale bands

what r the winds like with the storm? Blizzard levels?

Far from it. max predicted wind on the models is about 25kts along the beaches, and 15-20kt inland. This storms dropping to only about 992mb, unlike the 978 we saw back in december

One only has to compare the last two runs of the SREF's (which normally are somewhat consistent) which made huge changes in only 6 hrs. It literally went from 8+ in. for Scranton, PA to flurries. We can't take this to the bank until tomorrow nigh, I'm sorry to say. This is especially true in this sort of setup where if you aren't under the CCB, you're screwed (with marginal temps, we are going to need heavy snow to really bring down the surface temps and get anything to stick well on pavement).

I'm pretty sure the fact that this falls at night and that we've been below freezing for days negates the pavement argument. :lol:
