I was just seeing that and thinking....meh....give it 36-48 hours and it will cave to the GFS

lol

 

The surface torches... still upper 30s/low 40s throughout event but 850s are only 1 or 2 degrees above freezing.

Great trends. Wouldn't be shocked to see it trend even south and colder given what has happened this winter.

This is will be a front end thump and by the time the BL warms most of the damage will be done . There is just too much cold air in front of this , to it`s N and to it`s `W that should push this the way of the pattern .  The models don`t see low cold air until its in it`s face , we saw that 2 weeks ago .

It does not like to fully rain in NEG EPO cold confluent patterns in mid winter . There is to much HP slipping through the lakes . You already saw how far the Euro corrected from 12z yesterday  wait a few days and see where this trends to  . It should trend to the pattern .

The Euro and NAM now see this .  The NAVGEM and UKIE are stepping to it .,

This looks like an event that brings 3-6 inches of snow, that then ends as drizzle w/ temps no better than 33 at the warmest.  Looking like a blizzard for LI and S/E New England the middle of next week.  I don't see no end to the cold and stormy pattern thru at least 3/25.  I bet March 2015 is a -10 to -12 departure month. The models are saying no pattern change for at least several weeks.

Still a long way to go, but I don't think the models blew the forecast at 4 days out, imho. The majority of them had that pig of an arctic high dropping in west of the lakes. Combined with a pretty fast flow at the 250 jet streak, a sheard out mess is still in the cards. If it cuts, so be it; but I think this might go east.

Nice call.

Thank you man . Not 100 % there, and DM was on this earlier too  but I love how these models just miss low level cold air until it`s in their face and they are forced to run under the confluence and to the warm air . ( The water ) .  There may  be some rain with this , but these are the types of systems that by the time you rain and or drizzle the damage will have been done .
