Feb 8 South Coast/Cape "event"


Clinch Leatherwood

Recommended Posts

Looks pretty darn decent overall, is that ribbon of precip developing around NYC going to be able to make it up over LI, across SE CT, RI and SE MA later?

It's a tough call, it's going to be awful close to give someone a pretty good smack later this evening.

Just saw that Will, was mainly looking at WV and radar...the GFS and NAM nudged "wetter" too.

The RUC this year has actually been really good with several events...but those events weren't really trying to drive precip up here from off the Delmarva. Seems to do this from time to time driving precip in here then pulls it away later but heck...it's 4 to 5 hours now.

Feels like snow down here.

It is, but take a look at the h12 Euro compared to current radar, looks to be way too far south with the precip on the Jersey coast....

I think you should keep an eye on the blob coming off NJ. The problem is that it might move more ENE and skirt the south coast and hit ACK. However, if it tries to bulge north, than it can try to clip you guys. Phil and I earlier were saying to watch the nrn edge because it might be a little more defined and stronger than models have it, but the lift also may not be sufficient enough.

Yeah it gets squished east while being elongated.

This 22z run of the ruc looks to have the best handle on its position of all its earlier runs...so let's see if further north early means further east.

the most recent RUC came back to earth, funny how tough this model is with east coast redevelopments...fine with systems coming across, up, not so much.

Probably just a bit more aggressive than the EURO re the 22z RUC...which means flurries up to maybe the canal, maybe a dusting over the cape and maybe a coating to 2" on ACK?

ACK is going to be an interesting forecast. Gonna have to look at that again, shortly.

NAM absolutely nailed this event here, radar completely dried up as energy is being transfered to the coastal, spot on, euro out to lunch, not a flake here despite calling for a half inch of snow.

Who called for a half inch? LOL Always a red flag when the Nam (which is usually a wet model) is bone dry...DP was 10-12 here all day with temps in the 30's. Danbury was 4-5 for DP-never had a chance
