IntenseBlizzard2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 That storm signal is insanely strong. If this storm doesn't pull a false March 2001 signal, we could be seeing something that will be incredibly fascinating and very rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 If this verifies the snowpack would be the deepest since Jan 2011 25-30" total aggregate snowfall by 174 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDMK6GLI Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Weenie snowgasm deluxe.LOL ladies and gents this is why were here.The 20 yr anniversary of the superstorm is approaching next month isn't that something.probably wont be superstorm, even if this all goes right its still going to be a task to beat the cold standard of EC snowstorms of the megolopolis 96' but this storm just looks amazing so far!

jiksports Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 25-30" total aggregate snowfall by 174 hours. Is the snow largely confined to the city, or does it spread to the NW fringes of the NY metro area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 There's a piece of energy over the GL that comes down and phases with the shortwave in the south, the timing of this could greatly alter/enhance snowfall for inland areas or us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like currently taken verbatim this COULD be a snowstorm measured in feet for the megalopolis with all the moisture it will being thrown into the cold air mass and the over strength of the system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Is the snow largely confined to the city, or does it spread to the NW fringes of the NY metro area? It is widespread.

pazzo83 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Feb 2010 incoming. Hope y'all are ready, I was in Philly for that and back to back 2ft+ storms in a week were incredible. Some version of that (spread among three storms) looks like it's in the cards here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris L Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I'll be traveling home on Monday morning. Hopefully in a blizzard. I won't miss the main show... This has Feb 10, 2010 all over it; a colder version too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking70 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I have a question-- THis thread is from Feb 8-12. I see NWS has chance of snow friday and higher chance for Saturday. Is Euro showing a storm Fri-Sat that the GFS is now showing? Thanks. Enjoy all the snow everybody!! Could be an amazing stretch we are going o have these next couple weeks!

Violentweatherfan Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 It is widespread. But the details of snowfall totals aren't important right now. "Lord Earthlight", I see in the title of this thread feb 8-12...and read elsewhere it would be a 30hr duration storm...is there another to follow the 8/9 event?

Rjay Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 The threat title covers the potential. Don't worry about the date yet. The big storm looks like sun into monday though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDMK6GLI Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Not quite. H500 is not cutoff. That is still a very reasonable possibility however. This storm is going to be wound up and if the shortwave that highzenburg said can phase into the system that will only add fuel to the fire. 96' though, that is going to be a tough task.

96blizz Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 FWIW, that crazy Euro Control Run that totaled some 30" or more for the period may not be that far off. Granted, I obvoiusly would never condone publishing that so flippantly in social media, but that's impressive for it being from several days ago. This is awesome!

earthlight Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Just for the kicks of it...the Euro is showing a 30" snow depth from Philly to Central and Northeast NJ and NYC by 174 hours. Toss a I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsentropicLift Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Verbatim it's a long duration event, but the first threat in two days was originally progged to be over 24 hours too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bring up a good point and that i think would be the determining factor for the widespread feet snowfall totals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjay Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 FWIW the 12z GGEM has a different scenario but still shows a MECS. This one looks to have better blocking. We'll see though.

IsentropicLift Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Bit off topic but the 12z GGEM has 3-4" total QPF through the end of its run, mostly frozen or freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
