Euro comes on a snowier overnight for first wave, general 1-3, some 4" spots far N.... Nam may not be as crazy

All the models seem to be painting this as somewhat elevation dependent (probably based on marginal temp profiles). I wouldn't be surprised to see a few inches on the hilltops in Orange and Putnam County vs an inch in the valley areas.

PW's are forecast to be near record levels for late February as we get into a direct

subtropical moisture feed. This system will be an unusual early season convective

event here as the models actually bring in surface based in addition to elevated

instability. The strongest thunderstorms will produce the heaviest rains and

highest wind gusts. The Euro is generating the most surface based CAPE that

I have ever seen here in February.

Instability and moisture parameters more typical for spring.

Does this portend a more potent severe weather season in spring and summer?

Those of you hoping for snow in your area of more than 2-3" I think are going to be dissapointed. There is a tremendous amount of both warm air and moisture that will feed into this system. Not buying into the NAM or any other model that shows more than that. This is going to be a VERY wet system, just not very frozen.

Only the nam shows more than 2-3...so I hope nobody expects the 4-6 it shows, I'm expecting 1-3", 4" in the far NW sections may not be impossible, but rates will be awful with marginal temps and 850s around -2
