Up by you? There was a half inch in holmdel an hr ago with all the returns staying north. Looks like one band will swing thru in the next 2 hrs at least but by then the radiation is going strong..I'm hoping tonight can surprise up here, though I'm not thinking anymore than a coating to 1".

Yes should be an easy 5-6" up that way.

NAM had this storm pegged until the 0z run last night. Showed the best precip and lift right where the biggest winners are this morning at 12z and 18z yesterday. Why this model always goes crazy at the last second is beyond me.

Congrats to all the big winners! :snowman: :snowman:

He was getting a bit antsy last night when models did the usual cutback and shift at the last minute routine lol. In the end he might end up better than all of us on the island.

The thing was...I wasn't really familiar with the fact that the NAM cuts back so drastically on final runs...I saw 1/10" liquid and said how the heck are we going to squeeze anything out of that? I assumed the NAM was on to something rather than on something. So I made a post about a best case scenario of 3" on the Island. Lesson learned.

I posted the hrrr and ruc radar sims last night when the precip looked weak in PA. I said that they had the Great Lakes precip coming over and i got bashed. They did amazing, had the heavy band over SE NY and N jersey early this morning. I was told the storm was weeakening and fizzling out last night right after i posted it. :arrowhead:

Close to but less than predicted except northern areas. Looks like last band slipping south and disintegrating with back edge clearing north central NJ.
