The GFS basically sees the Miller B idea but has no clue to get there, it started developing the 2nd low and then lost it and the other low took an eastward scoot over SPA and the MA off the coast, the secondary would probably form way earlier in such a setup...actually by the 147 hour frame is probably when the coastal would take over...

Agreed and in that case it'd prob be just off of OBX or just north of there..maybe the Va capes

It's definitely a better run than 18z, and if things really played out as the gfs depicts then we would probably see a faster transfer. If that high to the north trends stronger or more expansive, then we would see some major CAD for some probably resulting in a big time ice event.

We all know this is going to change 1000 times. I agree with Earthlight to follow the ensembles for now.

That sounds like a coastal hugger...And would have issues for NYC and LI in all likelihood maybe after a front end thump. Again, just another solution but a miller b is becoming more likely. I like what I see tonight so far. I am excited for the ensembles.

That's true, worst case I think is a major ice storm to the N&W of the city and into NE PA if the CAD is in play. If that's the case, then they should pray for just rain. 

 

0z GFS verbatim is Snow to Sleet for MGJ..  I think thats the worst case scenario for these parts. Ive seen this movie before.

The temps on the Euro only get to the mid thirties on long island and with an 850mb low west of the area, it's def rain but its not super far off from something more. An earlier transfer and its subfreezing all the way to the coast.

 

I think LI has real potential of 8-12 inches next Wednesday and 12-18 inches the following weekend.  Pattern supports it strongly, have to say that.  We will be talking about snowfall depths, magnitude and duration instead of frigid temps in February.  I bet March has a 75-80 degree day inland after the dust settles and some subfreezing days too. Feb should have lots of 25-30 degree days, instead of 15.  We will be back to tons of our normal wet snow and 10-1 ratio paste LI'ers are accustomed to. Ground will be in great shape for spring, due to tons of snow melt, once this winter is over. Will be green as anything come last week of April and May.  Risk a foggy and backdoorish spring followed by a warmish May at times to a very hot June, based in what did happen in 1994.  I feel a very good SVR season this summer unlike last one. This Feb 2014, we'll be like the green pigs in "Angry Birds" getting hits and strikes over and over again, finally the " mighty eagle" strikes w/ the grand finale HECS..

Looking at tonight's runs, your over the top drama might actually be warranted for once.
