If the low was weaker and less wrapped up even with this track a lot of the area would have done fairly well. That's one of the problems with these very wrapped up coastal lows.

 

No, the problem is that there is no blocking, the ridge collapses out west, and the trajectory of the disturbances on the eastern periphery of the ridge were east/southeast to begin with. 

 

If you fix one of those three things, this storm is tucked in near OC MD at 48 hours and we're sitting under the best frontogenesis we've seen in our lifetimes. 

 

But you know what they say..

And that's all she wrote. Euro has nothing for NYC now.

I had a feeling the Euro would join the other dry models. The inverted trough idea is another bogus mirage as they usually are, and the CCB is going to miss us way to the east, so what mechanism is there to give us organized snow when the low wraps up? That all should be well offshore.

I think the last thing you mentioned is the real dagger here. The other two we could have managed.

Look at 54hr, the western low is merging with eastern low quicker. The last run was more separate and deeper with the western low, at the same time.

The lift and upper air support is stronger over the eastern low, which allows it to take over. The baroclinic zone is way offshore and the upper air pattern is too progressive to allow for a tucked in low.

^^ That spontaneously posted.

 

Each model that wobbles the other way, some near weenie suicide or it is a bad run.

 

Even the 3 inches in Queens in late March, at least one pro-met will call a failure to troll the weenies.

 

 

 

And, BTW, sure, I'm disappointed the once every two decades late March storm is very unlikely to happen, and hoping for a miracle down 7 points, 16 seconds, one time out left and the other team in the double bonus, but if the actual storm drops 3 inches, and coats the lawns for a day, I'd call that a victory.  Like the #11 seed taking the #3 seed to OT before losing, sort of.  Painful, but nothing to be ashamed of.

A 14 seed just beat a 3 seed a couple days ago. That's why they actually play the games instead of just analyzing the stats and declaring a winner.
