We still get hit hard by UHI up this way. It's not really until you get north and west of Paramus that UHI dissipates.  Sure, storm to storm there are big differences in totals the 20 mile radius outside of NYC, but in the grand scheme of things, the differences are minimal by the end of the winter more times than not. 287 is the ultimate benchmark imo. Pretty drastic differences in climo when get up that way.

 

This is so true, I live in Franklin Lakes. Once you climb 208 there are drastic changes. The first set of changes occurs near Hawthorne/Wyckoff when elevation goes from 50ft to 300ft and the second change is the Wyckoff/Franklin Lakes area where elevation becomes widespread 400-600ft. I have seen multiple occasions where it is snowing at my house with several inches of accumulation and when I travel south on 208 it is all rain by the time I hit Hawthorne with nothing. It is really weird. This season alone I have had several (3-4) systems of 3"+ of snow while my office in Hackensack has had none of those snowfalls. There are some beautiful homes in my town that sit up on the peaks around (700 ft) and even they see more snow then in the center of town.

Looks like the gfs wants to break down the blocking by March 10, does the Euro agree?

so far the current blocking has done nothing for us - in regards to next weeks system we need that upper low to get out of that position one way or another to allow the system coming in from the west and south to be able to fully turn the corner and phase with the northern stream...........if it is able to do so once the storm passes that will just reinforce the blocking

Well we would have no chance at all without blocking.

Longtime viewer and former account Holder here. I just wanted to post and vent for a minute this winter has really taken a toll as my location Central NJ(HIllsborough) has been missing any real accumulation on the few Storms this winter. The So called Blizzard was only 7 inches here. Have had a few One to two inch type storms but that is it.  AC and the Jersey shore have received more snow this season along with North Jersey, NYC and LI. In general the whole pattern is getting tiresome  cold and Dry or warm and wet. For the Past month keep hearing the pattern is changing or there is a threat 10 days away and little or nothing comes from it. Take next week for Example it was Primed for a Huge Snowfall but now the Blocking and confluence that hasn't been there all winter is too strong and keeping Huge storm south of Us. Just comical either storms Form too late and crush north of here or now a sucker punch below the belt as a massive storm could crush south of the Tri- state.  :cry:

As much as I love snow, I am ready for warm weather. My heating bills are just too much to handle.

looks like DT is getting the troops all psyched up for a big snowstorm down south - yea right - how many times has he done this then never happens ?

Everytime he does this, the models shift the other way lol.

The Henry model says the storm will shift north and NYC gets it -

His video was actually a good one this time around.

 I finally did that last month. Oil is a lot of money.

 

huh ? the event is at least 6 days away - still alot of time ................

 

Agree. Why would anyone write a storm off a week in advance.

Bernie Rayno on the potential storm. He thinks it will be further north than what the models are showing. He says anyone from Richmond to Maine is in the game . He thinks the rain/snow line might set up along the I-95 corridor.

Dude. There is a vendor discussion thread. Use it.

There is also a banter thread for half of your posts in the storm threads. Use it.
