Upton

General model consensus remains with the coastal low deepening off the North Carolina coast this morning...then tracking south and east of Long Island today and tonight. There are some differences in the thermodynamics with the system and amounts of quantitative precipitation forecast. The NAM maintains a rather sharp gradient keeping most of the precipitation off the coast. While the GFS and European model (ecmwf) bring higher quantitative precipitation forecast across Long Island and the city. Still expect around a half inch liquid with 2 to 3 inches of wet snow. Will keep the advisory in place for today and tonight. Less confident that northwestern portions of the advisory...ie..western New Jersey...will see advisory level snowfall. Best forcing will be across New York City and Long Island...with little farther to the north. Inland areas may see less than an inch of snow...so will not expand the advisory from current areas.

Look at next hours.  Totally different and way south.

 

I didn't mean that within the context of this storm, just in general because he said:

 

"It's an on and off model. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it flat out stinks lol."

 

which basically describes every model since they all have their highs and lows.

Radar looks like precip may be able to make it to NYC and Long Island, as it is still crawling very slowly north. Some of the short-term models moistening up may be encouraging for at least a period of snow today for those areas. Monmouth and Ocean Counties look to get pounded good through today.

thats because that model is a joke...I hope S NJ enjoys its 24+" of snow

That matches up pretty well with the 06z 4k NAM FWIW. Although the NAM has southern NJ in a general 8-12" swath rather than 12-18"+.

 

Just keep in mind folks that in order for NYC to see significant accumulations out of this, it would have to be one of the biggest defeats ever for the Euro inside of 24 hours. That's asking an awful lot.

Interesting that Upton thinks the best forcing will be across NYC and LI with 2-4 inches of snow.

would be the ultimate all-time defeat for the Euro, but most models keep meaningful precip south of us

The shift drier on yesterday's 12z RGEM was a nice heads up of what the Euro would show

a few hours later and the 0z backing off even more.

For all who want to get excited in the southern areas of Jersey and in Philly Metro, I fully expect this snow map to verify leaving many with little if any accumulation. We will all in the end get the shaft, deal with it and get over it.

Yes, NYC and LI

NAM is a hair wetter for the southern and eastern areas compared to 06z. Shifted about 20-30 miles northwest with the significant precip.

This is a complete wishcast, so ill preface this by saying that, but if the end result is even 20-30 miles NW of that were taking 3+ for a much wider area
