Look for 4 to 6 around EWR KNYC KLGA . The RGEM is right here .This is an extremely cold air mass that the SW is running into . Light S winds will not torch the BL fast enough so you will snow for a while.

EVERY front end system this year has over performed . The only warm layer here is at 925 and it this layer that will keep this from piling up east of the city.

The 925 do punch N but by the time it does the damage will be done.

This system has come to the pattern and you do not have to go very far N and W outside KNYC to see 8 inches of snow just end as drizzle

There shouldn't be more than .25 inches of rain in the city with this as the best lift and best moisture is out ahead of the mid level warmth.

Another win for this pattern.

much more than prior run, correct?

SV maps only have 1-2" for the immediate coast and 2-4" for NJ and the LHV. I don't know where he's getting 3-5" unless he's guessing on better ratios. Ratios with this sytem will start off decently and then will be reduced to less than 10:1 as the mid-levels warm.

yep, 0z had 1-2 inches.  This run is colder and snowier for most.

The only place around here that gets 3-5" on the 12z Euro is inside Anthony's head. Normally you bump up SV numbers slightly but in this case with the poor ratios consevative is probably the best way to go.

 

I still think that 3-6" is probably a good forecast, just reporting what the Euro shows. Honestly, the Euro would be borderline meh. A few inches of snow and then slop verbatim.

Yeah, I just don't think most people understand here just how poor ratios will be. 10 or 11:1 and then dropping to 6 or 7:1 by Saturday night.

The ratios are going to be horrific, even up into the lower hudson valley, I just don't understand where these 4-8 inch calls are coming from, even up that way...
