Amped Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Phil may need to get his oxygen mask with this..lol. The 1.5PVU surface to 600mb. Hard to tell, but you can see the dip in red. Those ensembles seem awfully far west for those reasons you/we stated earlier. If Hurricane Josh whats to see a storm with an eye, he might want to try ACY tomorrow.

ski MRG Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 That is sick and sweet at the same time! Hi Andy!! How's the arm feeling? No shovelling for you. I'm feeling pretty good about a respectable thump here. What say you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb65 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 The thing is..I do think you get good snow up there..even with the Euro track. The eastern folks are worried simply because of the GFS adding confusion to an otherwise unified front of models. It's like an Allied front against one rebel country I guess the other thing to keep in mind was that the Ukie, was more in the Euro camp as well. So despite the NAM shifting a bit at 18z toward the GFS (it is the 18z nam after all which we usually toss), we should be somewhat confident pending a big change with the 0z runs.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Yeah I think the thermal gradient will be obscenely packed in the SE...like Tip mentioned earlier. The lower res models won't handle that quite as well. I'm trying to keep up but busy with kids/working so missing a lot of pages. Makes sense, we're talking probably ten degrees in 3-4 miles with the cold side a blizzard. Right now it looks like it sets up between Rte 24 and I95. The climatological battleground is usually about Rte 138 to Rte 24, but that's later in the year so who knows? I expect we'll see some serious model shuffling tonight/resolution to the differences.

Frisbetarian Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 You guys are awesome, and I love the updates, but the big story here (it's October and we can't ski on this sludge) is 13' semi-clean NE swell @ 9 seconds with still pretty warm Atlantic water and 27 MPH NW winds. Screw the snow, see you at the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
