I don't know why people want to anoint the Euro as King again the only thing that went wrong yesterday were the surface temps.

The Gfs has been doing very well lately and it's going to get the end of the week snows right too barring major changes in the next few runs.

 

Well honestly statistically speaking the EURO is the superior model.  Agreed the GFS is better after the upgrades.  Regarding the end of the week snow its really not that hard to get a dusting to 2 or maybe 3 inches correct.  Just saying! We will see how to does with the Sunday into Monday threat, but that is not for this thread.

WED NIGHT-THU...

 

AS AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
AREA EARLY THU...A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE IS FCST TO DEVELOP OFF THE
SE COAST AND MOVE NORTHEAST. 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE NW OF
NYC WED NIGHT-EARLY THU WITH THIS FRONT. 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW IS
POSSIBLE EAST OF NYC
WHERE MOISTURE FROM BOTH SYSTEMS CONVERGE
DURING THE DAY THU. IN BETWEEN...SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS UP TO AROUND
1 INCH IS POSSIBLE.

An interesting note as the models move the southern storm further south and east, the QPF forecast increases slightly for our region. If this trend continue NYC may see up to two inches instead of less than one.

why would that increase the QPF. Wouldn't we normally need the southern system to be more north and west to give us more QPF?

A stronger southern system steals the energy of the northern system. Since the southern system is not going in any way phase up in time any consideration of this is out. So it will leaves more energy with the northern system until the phase up happen later on. Just look at the QPF forecast before the northern system weakens there is a good .25"-.50" of QPF. Once the southern system starts robbing the northern systems energy the QPF quickly decreases. Delay and push the weaker southern east and more QPF would work into our region.
