even if we have incredible dynamics with this storm bombing i still cannot see how we can get alteast a trace of snow anywhere near the coast. four weeks later we'd be talking about our first winter storm, as of now i see this as coastal rain/wind and inland snowstorm. i wouldnt be expecting much more than that close to NYC metro

The boundary level temps will always be an issue, this early. But we can overcome if have enough cold air and dynamics, like what we with the October storm last year. However, in this case, we don't have as much cold air and the upper-level pattern is not the same.

The GFS actually has a small area of 70KT winds all the way down to the 975 mb level just NW of the storm center

which is really bad news. It's a really bad set up with the high over maine staying put and the low getting pulled

in back to the coastline.

If the winds are as bad as they were in march 2010 its gonna get ugly.

congrats philly

12Z GFS is wrong in regards to the precip type - not even taking in to account the warmer ocean air involved especially from philly south - ocean water temps still above 50 down there - the wind fields are probably closer to accurate maybe - interesting to see a 1026 high in eastern canada prior though - need that next month

CMC gonna have a very very strong storm here

Weaker and significantly less precip on the NW side. More energy is diving towards the Tenn Valley this run, tugging the best dynamics further south and inducing an earlier occlusion. Forcing is rapidly weakening at this latitude. Gale winds and moderate surge tides for NJ, but nothing extreme.

Its still a very strong storm, but it just peaks further south.

Scott's point about the wind direction, especially inland, is a good one. There is a noticeable northerly wind component west of NYC and away from the immediate shore. The coastal areas northeast wind direction, if it comes to fruition, is going to be a problem as far as mixing down some more of the gusts and available winds at 950-975mb.

Yeah nrnly winds will limit mixing and keep winds more in check (although still strong). Go to the otherside of the CF and winds will mix down from 950 or higher. Kind of nervous for the NJ coast into LI.

I was just about to type that .My fear is that strong winds get brought to the surface.

Being that we are on the western side of the surface feature the heavy rains will aide in doin so .
