Man,

0z euro really wraps up the coastal earlier along the coast. Nice run overall DC-bos

Apparently, the eCm Ens are a lot like the op* that's all the info I got so far*

Here's dc's thermal profile:

Friday 18z .....-3.9 2m.....-12.3 850's..... .05

Saturday 00z....-4.4 2m....-6.6 850's..... .44

Saturday 06z.....-9.3 2m.....-8.7 850's...... .12

Balt is .74" Qpf...

We're snowing in sub 534 thickness.. That's a pretty damn nice run of the euro!!!

Have two big work events on Friday....Timing for Philly?

ouch, even worse... line em up!

 

I think it was stated last evening that we are now in the timeframe where the GFS likes to "lose the storm".  I'd bet the 0z Wed night run will bring it back.  I think a GFS/Euro compromise like Tombo suggests may very well be close to the solution.  We've seen this dance many times over and need to remind people to not start looking for a ledge/noose.

I've been away for a bit but I'm now, as most of you all, confident that the northern tracks were bogus. It is interesting that some mets were arguing for that type of scenario but I just can't understand why. There is deep, Arctic Air in place with a suppressive northern stream and an amplified northern stream which will prevent that sort of thing from happening (just like if the NAO was negative).

 

A semi-progressive, amplified flow under a suppressive PV means a southward solution. I'm not sure right now if we go the way of the GFS or not. My initial feeling is a compromise where N NJ to New England see a decent mid-winter snowstorm and S NJ to VA get something briefer.

+NAO ftl

a positive nao argues for progressive i agree, but not a dry solution. The reason why that is happening is because the gfs isn't building the hgts enough out west and the pv just crushes everything. I will say this, it did trend towards the euro with starting to phase in the northern stream You can see that by its even more bullish on popping that low on the coast. That northern stream has to buckle the flow more to allow that to shoot northeast instead of ene.

I'm not talking about the dryness either, just how fast the coastal pulls away after developing.

This is just track, not necessarily intensity or qpf, the gfs and ec compromise was the most accurate individual and/or combo solution 72hrs and within last winter.  Right now they are giving you the left and rightmost possible solutions. The fact that the UK looks like its leaning the EC's way is encouraging for more snow.  During the past month, the ec has had a wet bias beyond the .25" isohyet in the NE in the time period we are entering and the gfs  bias has been the closest to 1, not that this works for every storm.

ok, then yea i agree things will be moving fast but the flow still can buckle if that northern stream digs down and there is more of a ridge out west. Even if a coastal moves up the coast or ots it will move pretty fast.

Agreed.  Thanks for clarifying.  GFS gets wetter inside 72 and euro often overdoes the qpf.  I think the challenge is that we now have cold in place and arent looking for cold despite the NAO, so we need to view from a different set of safety glasses as to how to manufacture a good snowstorm..its been a while since weve had cold in place...thats for sure.
