0z NAM..

MGJ -- @ hr 45 warm layer is between 750-825. From 825mb down its below 0, 2m is 32.7°.. The warm layer is between 1-3c, precip during this 3hr period is 0.45" 

 @ hr 48 warm layer is between 750-775. from 775mb down its below 0, 2m is 32.8° .. The warm layer is extremely shallow and only 0.9c, precip during this 3 hr period is .63" ( most likely snow)

12z Nam says some  of us up here never see a drop of rain

It will be interesting to watch this unfold.  We'll see where the low tracks and radar trends down south today. Going to be an active day across northern Fl and southern Ga. Upton as an inch or two of sleet tomorrow for the county, so they are coming on board as to the P type.

latest news from Mt Holly NWS this morning.

Lots of uncertainty.

 

Wintry Precipitation... An overwhelming majority of models have
trended colder with boundary-layer temperatures on Monday and Monday
night. This looks to be in part due to the slower arrival of the
precipitation from the low to our southwest, which would allow extra
time for high pressure to build in from eastern Canada and thus for
the low-level cold air to drain southward into northeastern PA and
northwestern NJ. Accordingly, there is more of a concern for wintry
precip from I-80 northward. Forecast soundings and partial thickness
nomograms indicate the predominate ptype would be freezing rain
Monday- Monday night. For now, icing look to be primarily confined
to the higher ridges (elevations above 1000 ft) of Carbon, Monroe
and Sussex (NJ) counties. If thermal profiles trend even colder,
then sleet may cut down on icing from freezing rain across the far
north. Regardless, sleet will mix in at times when the precip
intensity picks up. A brief changeover to wet snow is also possible
in the Poconos Monday afternoon-evening if a band of heavier precip
makes it this far northwest and sufficiently dynamically cools the
column. Forecast snow/sleet accumulations are less than 1 at
elevations above 1000 ft  along  the I-80 corridor and 1-2 in the
southern Poconos for ridges above 1700 ft in elevation. These
amounts are conservative due to the high uncertainty of a changeover
to snow and near-freezing surface temperatures that are marginally
supportive of accumulations. Conversely, went higher with ice
accumulations at the higher elevations north of I-80. These icing
amounts were calculated using the FRAM model. With freezing rain
likely to not begin until around or just after sunrise Monday
morning, opted to hold off on any winter headlines at this point so
the day shift can re-evaluate the next cycle of guidance.

The primary surface low over the central Appalachians will
eventually transfer it`s energy to the coast Monday afternoon and
night. 00Z models have trended stronger with the coastal low (both
at the surface and aloft), resulting in a well-defined deformation
band on the backside of the low center on Tuesday. Precip may
transition to snow or sleet before ending Tuesday afternoon across
NE PA/NW NJ as winds turn out of the NW and colder air wraps around
the backside of low. This

12z NAM.. 

MGJ-- From hr 36 - 42 the warm layer is somewhat shallow (750mb-800mb) ranging 0.2c-2.6c. From 800mb down its below 0c. Total precip during this period is 1.16". W of this location runs a higher chance of seeing SN while E runs a lower chance.

Surface temps throughout this period is 32.8°

This is no doubt a sleet profile but I wouldn't doubt during heavier burst that snow mixes in.

Cads also usually well under modeled, wouldn't shocked if craigsmore and places like that etc, paste for hours

Been saying it for days now... but was told the nam is just being the nam and we're all rain

I'm certainly guilty of saying/thinking that.  For my specific area though, I still think this one is more wet than wintry.  The wind is what I'm interested in.
