Lol. Yeah the 2 feet is over NYC and they get 12+

But it is the nam lol

Hope you guys looked at soundings too. NYC will mix a bit before going over. It's NNJ that gets crushed.

NW NJ actually....west Milford to high point gets obliterated. 30"+ I'm sure

of note guys, and i think this is pretty important, the 4km nam is colder than the 12km, by a decent amount. At 21 850's havent cleared the souther shore of LI while on the 12km they're transecting the bronx

NAM has been the warm outlier for a while now. It probably has to do with how crazily it plays the convection and phase. I would definitely go with the Euro/GFS on temps here.

3-4 qpf over the whole area..take with grain of sakt

 

Yep, I still think 15-20" is probably an honest bet for people who see all snow. 10-16 for those who mix or go through some rain tomorrow afternoon.

This run gives Boston a foot or less if you look closely. I highly doubt that will happen

The NAM is just clueless sometimes when it comes to these phased solutions-suffering from all sorts of convective feedback issues. I highly doubt it plays out the way it shows verbatim here. Even the higher resolution 4km NAM disagrees and keeps it colder.

Completely wrong.

I cannot understand why this thread is attracting people like this. I'm all for true interpretations of model solutions given by mets and non-mets alike. It stuff like this that really pisses me off bc theres really no reason for it. Its wrong and has no place in this subforum

If the GFS comes even close to this...I give up...we're down for close to 2 feet

It probably won't. This is theoretically where the NAM shines as has been noted (point-blank range, convective/mesoscale), so if I were to blend the two models, I'd almost weigh it more heavily toward the NAM.
