The ECMWF looks like it might be missing it, for two reasons

1) It advects a lot of cold air on Saturday putting the baroclinic zone well east of NYC

2) It also make the center of the vortex much wider then the GFS and squashes the short in the southern branch

 

The trend so far this winter in the model biases is that the vortex tends to be forecasted to be too broad and thus too much cold air is advected east into our region, if these biases are true for this storm NYC may just get it.  It is still too early to tell giving how poorly the models do in this kind of forecast.

Yeah this is probably over. The only model that had a storm is now way OTS and the culprit is the PV flattening out which is exactly what the GGEM and ECMWF does. The only difference is that the Euro presses even further South and shears out the energy so you don't get the system offshore.

 

We have some time with this one, but that wasn't a very good run and you can't really dismiss it because the GFS was the only model that showed something.
