R/S line should come further south at least temporarily as the heavier stuff to the SW moves in int he next 2-3 hours. At least that's the way most models have it.

I'm glad to see MSV in SE NY go to 1 SM and 30F (they are over 1000 feet) as the good precip moved in. They don't report weather but its almost guaranteed with that vis drop and temp that they went to steady snow. They are the same latitude as about Kevin roughly.

Good observation on your part re: the good stuff bring down the VSBY at MSV. That would seem snow .. esp. at that el.

nice dendrites here now. Light snow intensity. Feeling like I'm getting more than I expected on the leading edge as snow. All trees white.

I'll be back in 2 hours when heavier stuff moves in.

I'm wondering what Kev is going to get on Mt. Tolland. He is south of Us. However, has the elevation too. You are @250' higher than me and 12 SM NE .

I think we're being silly here. With this kind of surface low track, it's going to snow. Especially with anybody that has elevation. At my house in Dobbs Ferry, there is a good chance of snow as we are at 400ft. If that doesn't work, I will go to my house in the Poconos. We have 1500' elevation there. If that doesnt work I will probably go to my house in Vermont. We have 2500' elevation there. If that doesn't work, I will probably go to my house at the top of Mount Everest. Either way, this surface low track is conducive to snow.

A sfc track over SE MA never gives me rain....ever.

Hilarious, hahahahaha.

If the PNA weren't so negative, then it would have seen it.

It's literally amazing how the GEFS means have persistent -18 or more height anomalies along the west coast from 00 hours through 384 hours. It's becoming nearly as anomalous a feature as the high latitude blocking was from late Dec through Jan

How much $ money would it take for me to purchase that hat tha tyou kept tipping at the gtg

These clown maps remind me of the junk hi-res models in the intermountain W. If these models were right valleys in the mountains would never see precipitation--ever.

Yeah, the high res clown maps can be ridiculous. They've given me more than 20 inches of imaginary snow at a 12 hour lead time. I'm still waiting for that to fall.

Hopefully I can get away with it at 950 feet...might not be as lucky as socks at 370 feet though 125 miles to the SW.

Who are we kidding...our career as meteorologists is just beginning. In a few months the budget cuts will force NCEP to can the GFS and bring back the NGM.

Which means more accurate MOS data.

NGM or bust. I can't wait to get my hands on the revived NGM. Heck--we can even bring back the LFM and the MM5 could have a revival as the de facto mesoscale model. thumbsupsmileyanim.gif
