Hours 153-156 over running coming in followed by the coastal. Primary over the Lakes is really hanging on screwing things up. The surface and 850 freezing lines are north of the area. Hour 159 very heavy rain over us changing over as the coastal tracks from just off ACY to south of Long Island by 162. Temps crashing rapidly towards the coast. Heavy rain to snow this run. Hour 165 goodbye, big snowstorm for New England.

:lol:

 

What a ridiculous winter this has been for them. Wouldn't shock me if that's the final outcome.

The 12z gfs is wrong, it plows the primary into the block, not happening. Expect euro to look completely different.

It tries to redevelop a coastal but the primary doesn't die off, likely wrong. The 12z GFS verbatim is a classic miller B setup. If the primary had died off sooner this would have been a massive hit. The primary pumps enough waa to warm things up and then the coastal matures late.

The GFS phases with a strong vort coming down from Ontario. That's what causes the cut into Lakes. It showed this kind of scenerio for the 3/06-08 storm and was wrong. I'm not buying it again.

Awesome. Thanks Mike.

You're welcome :)

 

It's updating now, as soon as it completes I'll post it, unless someone beats me to it ;)

 

When you look at the more detailed maps you can see that most members have the surface above freezing and the 850's below freezing. Those details are irrelevant though at this juncture.

The 12z Euro, further south. The primary low dies over KY. The secondary low exits ENE off NC coast.

 

It can't seem to figure out how much energy to eject with the UL and how much to hang back in the Rockies

from run to run.

After an entire season of watching the same tennis match back and forth that the models seem to play time and time again I have come away with 2 noticeable distinctions

1 you have to wait until the SW gets better sampled in a pattern like this before we yell cut or shunt

And that's not until FRI

2. One way or another they have ALL eventually found themselves near the BM

What that argues for here precip type I don't knw for sure , but they have all come.

The 12z Canadian ensembles are a huge hit. Mean takes the primary into SE Ohio. Good over running beginning at hour 150 with the 850 freezing line south of DC. Secondary pops off the VA Capes and heads towards the benchmark. Verbatim it's snow to rain and back to snow once the coastal takes over. Plenty wet as well. Gets good precip all the way back to Lake Ontario from the coastal. Over 1.00" QPF area wide.

The problem is going to be temperatures.  Even if we do get a storm.  The dynamic cooling has to be very impressive, which probably won't be the case...

A late blooming miller B like what the GFS op shows won't get it done for the coast. In fact, not much will get it done for the coast except an amazing pattern, which is exactly what the ensembles are advertising.
