Good lord. Superstorm since everyone is asleep what are your current thoughts for nyc

 

I have an interview in a few hours with NBC WGAL at 8am, so I'm really focusing on SPA right now. 

 

However, I think the city is in an excellent spot tonight. I would go with a preliminary 8-15" right now.

Thanks for the response. Good luck with your interview. I have followed you since the accuweather boards. Some great trends tonight. Water vapor is astonishing

Thanks. I was just a kid back when I started on there in 2006.  

 

Tomorrow I'm actually going to be collaborating with Joe Calhoun to do an on-air forecast. 

 

I have to say, these are the most prolific model progs I have ever seen in my eight years of experience.

Models appear to be coming closer to a concensus. 18z Nam shrinks precip back off of Mass and Hudson Valley towards coast while 00z Euro Expanded the 1"+ precip line to the Bronx and south.. and moderate to light up through northern CT and LHV. Hopefully we see 18z GFS expand precip shield a bit NW as models come into agreement....

Confluence getting shifted ahead of moisture advection. 

 

May be some more adjustments tomorrow morning. 

 

Dont touch that dial!

Adjustments meaning track moves further north, mixing issues or otherwise? I would love to hear your explanation on this. It is so interesting to see all these moving parts and make sense of it. Thanks so much in advance!

More in the way of the system being able to tuck into the coast like the NAM/SREF/ECMWF show, as well as bring a much larger precip field.

The confluence (NW to SE vectors) were the main issue that we had during the period when the models were showing suppression. With that lessening and the moisture field blossoming, I think the global models will be playing catch up.

Best stick to nowcasting. This one is going to have some surprises

Wow. NAM always shows what we want

 

It's trying to show a huge frontogenesis band that wrecks and stalls over the entire area

 

Best news of the night is the euro and euro ens showing NYC getting in on the big time action. There's going to be huge bands on the north side of this thing that the euro wont pick up on.
