Because there is much more and better data.  Very few planes fly through the storm that provide data back to the models, while there is very good depth and quantity of information coming from many, many, land weather stations.  

I believe there are numerous data buoys just off the coast lines.

The biggest issue with this system is lack of a single consolidated piece of energy. So the first slug comes through, drags the boundary south and the 2nd wave can't lift high enough. One better organized low could have potentially really been a nice storm.

yep, once it went to a 2 wave system, it crapped the bed for areas further north...with that said, nice to see the 1st wave beefing up since that's our only hope here.

The timing on this one just isn't right for the northeast. Great for mid Atlantic as the weak waves don't torch them.

Pretty close and pretty dicey any shift in any direction will make a huge difference. In addition now the first wave has a decent amount of QPF that may put down several inches Sunday. For Monday it will be wait and see how strong the second wave is. At this point it is just to the south, but we need to focus on the two short waves and see if the northern one tries to phase a little with the southern one, any little change will make a big difference in more or less snow.

Compared to the previous NAM run, was this more south or north?

Jerry is a friend here too, let us deal with our own problem children...we both know how certain other subforums react to "outsiders" voicing their opinions on certain members.

Agree! Just yesterday a poster was saying rain to NYC..sleet south coast and how far north the heavy snows get in that sub forum

Consistent still think we are 6 to 8 down here despite euro. Any move of 25 to 50 mile willl make a large difference

 

The precip that falls for MC is mainly a mix from the front end courtesy of the NAM, almost no snow for Monmouth and less than .5 until you get to Ocean County or right at the border, it's the 18z NAM though so who knows.

One poster does not make a forum. Enough already, nobody in New England is trying to take snow away from NYC, period.
