Some LI peeps haven't gotten in on too much of those either.

Total Snowfall

2000-01 through 2012-13 (Last 13 Years)

Brookhaven Lab, L.I. / Upton: 538.6 inches / average 41.43 inches

Having shoveled just under 45 feet of snow the last 13 years...I'd say we've gotten in on a few...

UT

Thank u bro

 

the 3/4 threat looks good right now but with no blocking my biggest fear is a wound-up low I know its far out as well it will cut as they're is nothing to stop it from doing that. the cold is there but the upper level setup is still fragile and small changes can cause big complications in the pattern were heading into or transitioning into

There is support for a -AO around 1/3 and also an indication that the MJO may move to phase 8 or 1. This would support a more amplified and colder solution.

those factors would allow for a colder yet more amped solution but I stand by my previous statement of this pattern still being fragile :popcorn:

It's just not a great snow pattern as the Atlantic pattern is bad. So even though the threats are few and far between I think u will see people jump all over the smallest of threats

pp will latch onto them

Hit the nail on the head and until the atlantic starts to cooperate along with other factors its going to be small-moderate threats. Until then weenie goggles and wishcasting. Cold air is there, upper levels need to lend some support now as well

156 hours looks good. Stepped in a good direction

It looks like what we've seen earlier this month. I was looking forward to how January might turn out, but these setups do not make me happy. The PV is not far enough south to offset the horrible Atlantic and we get these ugly cutter looking systems that try to become miller B's. I think it's a great pattern for New England but not feeling so good about this area. 

 

The storm on the 3rd as the gfs depicts would be another rainstorm.

It's 150 hours out and I'm glad its showing a storm at all. Plenty of time to work out the details.

At 159 hrs on the GFS heights are building in Greenland, the PV shifts east so it acts like a 50/50 low, this is just one run of the GFS cant pull a weenie suicide yet

the last two January's had very little snow after 2011's record January snowfall...2011 had two storms 6" or more...1925, 1923 and 1905 were the only other January's with two 6" or more snowfalls...it's possible to get a 6" snowfall in January with the pattern we have seen since late November...If you want a bigger storm the ao/nao will need to be in a better state...

In reality we would probably see an icy setup as that strong cold high will be tough to dislodge, and it doesn't really retreat. 

Sounds like 1994 already lol, but I am new here so idk if I can post GFS maps from another source but at 165 hours there are heights building in Greenland, a 50/50 low (transient most likely), and a ridge building out west. Sounds like a favorable setup to me.gfs_z500a_namer_56.png

-NAO tries to develop then we lose the PNA and the coldest air is headed for the Rockies, this GFS run. It will keep changing for a while. I suspect we may eventually get a negative NAO.
