Weekend system ftw!

That on is also looking to go south/east of our area, as per the NWS.  For now...

 

THE MODELS ARE HINTING AT ANOTHER COASTAL LOW FOR NEXT WEEKEND.

HOWEVER, THE TREND HAS BEEN TO KEEP IT VERY FAR TO OUR SOUTHEAST

AND EAST.

From whom? Someone better at meteorology than the NWS? Please share then.

NWS is not perfect and far from it, they put out a forecast last night for 24 hours out saying 2-4" for tonight. So for tonight's forecast a lot of forecasts will be better than the NWS from last night. They also had a high of 40 for my area tomorrow as of last night again, we won't go above freezing tomorrow, so again a lot of forecasts will be better than NWS for tomorrow too..

I remeber how that looked: 2-4 in forcast was for parts of CT. and trending down to 1-3 NW and up to an inch in NYC . So, with respect, saying they forcast 2-4 in for tonight is a misnomer.

Sure, but 2-4" was forecast though, point is 2-4" was forecast for the northern 1/3rd of upton and we are getting flurries, far from accurate 24 hours out, point is weather changes every second

this potential is still alive the 12Z NAM (out of its accurate range ) is showing the system further north and closer to the coast what may happen starting today is the models will get better sampling and the storm may come closer to the coast

This storm is a perfect example of this winter. Not done trending till nowcasting, still think this comes further north. Warning event for atleast coastal locals is my call

Never said they were perfect - given the chaotic nature of weather, nobody is ever going to be perfect or even close to it, even 24 hours out.  But I think, on average, they're the best.

Upton

AS THE PV DESCENDS INTO ONTARIO MID WEEK...A POTENT MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE INTO THE OH VALLEY TUE NIGHT...AND THEN PASS OHD ON WED. THIS UPPER TROUGH WILL INITIATE SFC CYCLOGENESIS ALONG THE CAROLINA COAST TUE NIGHT...WITH AN INTENSIFYING SFC LOW PASSING JUST SE OF 40N/70W PER THE LAST COUPLE OF RUNS OF THE ECMWF...CLOSE ENOUGH TO DELIVER AT LEAST A MEDIUM IMPACT SNOWFALL. WINDS DURING THE EVENT DO NOT LOOK TO BE SIGNIFICANT...BUT SHOULD INCREASE INTO WED NIGHT AS SNOW ENDS...WITH WIND CHILLS POSSIBLY MEETING ADVY CRITERIA WELL NORTH/WEST OF NYC AS TEMPS THERE FALL TO NEAR ZERO. EXPECT SINGLE DIGIT LOWS ELSEWHERE WED NIGHT...WITH WIND CHILLS DROPPING TO 5 TO 10 BELOW TOWARD MORNING.
