Edge Weather Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hostly, though, having the NOGAPS doing what it is doing right now really causes you to stop and wonder what the heck is going on. Then you add the Canadian to that and it really makes you take pause. For goodness sake, usually the NOGAPS can't produce any storms at all, and if it does, it is the one way the heck out to sea. I don't know what to think other than that the potential is definitely still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 True but you can't disregard a winter just because your backyard does not get snow. It has been unlucky around here lately between last year and this year. NYC did okay'ish with Nemo but not enough to salvage this winter. Several other places such as Italy and Russia are getting historical snows. The potential is there....our bad luck cannot continue forever. There's no reason why it can't continue and continue for multiple winters for years. Look at pretty much all of the 80's. Look at the late 90's. Look at the 70's other than the end of the decade. Look it was nice to get a decent hit from Nemo and 2000-20011 were solid for most of the winters so I have no complaints. I understand other regions are racking it up but this is the NYC region we are posting about so my comments, while banter, are appropriate here. Mods, this is banter so feel free to move it there. Sorry about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what to think other than that the potential is definitely still there.. The fact that the euro and gfs both agree that this is a total non event less than 4 days out is a bad thing, real bad. The chances of them both being dead wrong and a far less superior model like the nogaps having the handle on this is very slim, this is quickly turning into a lost cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB GFI Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The difference is the GFS and Euro continue with the theme that the northern branch feature is the stronger of the 2 sws and once to the coast , it pulls the trough axis east . so when the Southern SW is in the slots its 200 miles east of HATT .( TOO LATE ) All year the Northern features have weakened as they have come east . I made this argument last week . every clipper that swung through the area was a shell of itself from what it was modeled 3- 4 days before . Last week the GFS didnt come around to the southern short wave being the strongest until 2 days before .Now they both may be doing it . The models without this bias are seeing development closer to the coast . So until you see which feature is stronger , nothing is off the table ..

I'm personally over 20" now for the winter, not bad at all for this area. I'd say there's a notable chance I reach 30" if the pattern coming up can produce, and if this storm tomorrow night works out somehow. Dec-Jan were horrendous, but like we very often have, the bulk of the action comes over a few week or month period. Even 2010-11's action mostly happened over the course of 1 month. Early December and February were yawners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle W Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 When was the last time the NYC Metro Area had TWO blizzards or even major snowstorms within a week of each other? I'll take "never" for $500, Alex. 1926 and 1994 the first part of February...as far as 10" snowfalls in the same winter I did a post in the other thread about that... having two blizzards or major snowstorms in the same season is very rare...it's hard enough to get one...many of these winters had mucho events that grazed the area or wasn't a big storm...The winters with two major storms near 10" or more... 1895-96...both came in March... 1898-99...November and February... 1913-14...February and March... 1925-26...both came in February... 1933-34...December and February... 1959-60...December and March... 1960-61...December, January and February... 1966-67...February and March... 1977-78...January and February... 1995-96...January and February... 2003-04...December and January... 2009-10...December and two in February... 2010-11...December and January... the winters with a foot or more is even less... 1959-60...the December 59 storm had a small area of a foot or more...March was wide spread... 1960-61...December and February... 1977-78...January and February... 2010-11...December and January...

Neblizzard Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 No the brunt of it was suppose to hit to our south If I remember correctly, the ECMWF was the model that nailed the 96 blizzard 7 days out. It was either the 3rd or 4th day before the storm where the MRF lost it and the media said it would head out to sea. Just 36 hours before the event, the AVN and ETA models brought it back.

mikemurph44 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The models are much better now than they were 17 years ago, in 1996, the chances of both the gfs and euro missing a major storm run after run up to less than 4 days beforehand is really slim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwang0725 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 That's a monster trough....-10C 850s down to Florida/Georgia border and 0C down to Miami. Agricultural interests should take notice. Good call. OJ futures settled at 128.20 today. Settled price yesterday was 120.5, over 5% increase. Traders attributed the jump due to rise in cooler forecasted temps.
