Feb 8th-9th Potential Significant Coastal Storm

One thing that all th guidance has is more water vs expected in the setup.

 

 

It has to do with a pretty nice jet structure and also some decent ML frontogensis with that high to the north opposing the WAA. Couple that with some Atlantic moisture and you have a very efficient QPF producer...that's why the phase solutions are giving so much qpf....not the 1-1.5 that often occurs in them.

I would love a phase but hey I would hit the Nam QPF in a heartbeat. Love seeing all these 1 + amounts coming about.

It's just an awkward evolution on the NAM..initially the northern stream is slower and more in line with the Euro, but it almost seems as though the southern stream stays significantly separated until it tries to phase in with the northern s/w way east...just close enough for eastern areas. Also, those 1"+ values will have a tough time verifying with that progressive flow sans maybe eastern MA with the developing comma head.   

 

All in all, its the NAM at 72 hours, but another possible outcome.

That's how you know things have big potential haha

But really it's one set of guidance that's gung ho on 12"+, hence why most pros and even some amateurs are telling people to temper expectations.

 

Low end warning seems probable, and the potential is there, but the idealized 84h Euro projection will be tough to even remotely accomplish given the h5 set up.

Anybody in Eastern Mass unhappy right now, after the last two years, needs their head examined. Just sayin'.

 

 

This, the thought of even sniffing 8"+ is an amazing feeling, people getting disappointed because some dream run may not come true need to remember these last two winters.

Yeah the euro is just insane lol. a low end warning would be fantastic after all the craptastic wx last two winters here, anything beyond that is sweet sweet crack.
