I'd still ignore NAM until tonight, however like I said it finally got the whole idea of how the storm evolves in line with the globals. Now that it has done that, I fully expect the next few runs to bump north a tad. Unless we see southern trend on the globals which I don't believe will happen based on the ensembles.

Nobody bothered to post the 4KM Nam but I'm going to ride the 9z ARW since it's so awesome. Okay, because we get the most qpf lol. This reeks of a sharp cutoff line to the north so lets get in it, only if barely.

4K NAM looks good as well.

GFS. That's solid

Do you realize how much this has dropped off in just the past 24-48 hrs? This does not surprise me at all as overrunning events (just overrunning, no coastal to follow) do not typically drop a foot of snow. I expect this to continue to cut back on totals.

Haz the 6z and 12z GFS have the most snow for Philly, they are strengthening the shortwave. With a storm like this, there will be a tight gradient however...but on overrunning types you always have a strong band of precip on the northern edge. 

 

6-12" for the city looks like a fair call. leaning towards 8-12"
