I don't have access to Euro sfc temps. However, considering how quickly the coastal low takes over and intensifies on the Euro (causing winds to quickly turn NE/NNE) and considering the nighttime timing of most of the precip., coastal areas could very well see snow as well in the Euro scenario.

The Euro is likely overdone, since the trailing shortwave will likely amplify more and cause the lead one to minor out by Wed night.

Euro brings several inches of snow on Wednesday night NW of the city.

surface temps of +1.3 to +2.0 at NYC with about .4 falling on Wednesday night

+.6 at Andover, NJ with that stuff on Wednesday night

Yeah the 2nd system trys to catch up with the first costal.....goes ots....looks like a nice hit of snow wed night for the area.

thats scary - thats what the 12Z GFS is suggesting also - second one misses south - so basically the 12Z EURO just adds to the confusion - doesn't look like the second storm issue will be resolved for at least another day or 2 but the 1st system mid week is gaining support...

With the Wednesday night storm, the 12z JMA has the .25 line north of the NJ/NY with the 850 line along Rt. 80, then it bombs the Friday storm out in very similar fashion to the UKMET with rain for everyone along the East Coast, then it brings more precip in Euro fashion next weekend with the 850 line again near Rt. 80

We just had snow three days ago with -2 at 850.

one thing about the snowfall we just had - intensity was the determining factor once the precip began to get lighter the mixtures started then rain - boundary layers were marginal and near the surface was above 32 in NYC Metro

Of course! And what makes you think we won't see decent intensity with this next event?

This might help .. this could explain the difference on the ECM run...

FWIW

RECENT ECMWF RUNS HAVE GENERALLY OFFERED PLAUSIBLESOLUTIONS BUT THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANTCONTINUITY CHANGES OVER THE PAST 2-3 DAYS. THE 00Z VERSION AND EVEN MORE PROGRESSIVE 12Z RUN SEEM TOO FAST CONSIDERING HOW WELL ORGANIZED THE TWO MAIN SYSTEMS CURRENTLY LOOK OVER THE NORTH PACIFIC APPROACHING AND EXITING FROM JUST SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS. ANOTHER COMPLICATING FACTOR FOR CONTINUITY ASSESSMENT IS THAT ONLYTHE 00Z GLOBAL GUIDANCE HAD ACCESS TO ADDITIONAL DATA FROM WSR TARGETING RECON FLIGHTS OVER THE NERN PACIFIC.
