I think the system impacts a very large area Yeah general idea seems to be the jackpot zone will be Catskills to Poconos and we will all do well. Nevermind these off OP runs in between that get people down, like at Ens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Sobering run of the gfs, kills a lot of Christmas snow hope and goes with a southern slider. It'll change plenty of times but it does show you what could go wrong in a seemingly favorable pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you connect the heights from the Baja to Beijing what do think the height falls will look like on the E/C. Also look at that block in the Arctic / It is a Classic E/C snowstorm set up and probably a major one.

ILoveWinter Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Why is it always the same people who have to remind everyone of bad model runs or pattern changes? Entirely predictable to see those kinds of posts from certain people and to not see posts from them about positive runs or patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many in here will hang on OP run to OP run and miss what this is , 7 days ago Christmas was 60 with rain. I think by the time we get within 3 days everyone will see it. I agree with you, PB. I think the pattern is evolving toward one that will be conducive for a moderate to possibly significant snowstorm toward the end of December. I'm discounting both the 12z GFS and the 12z GEFS (lack of continuity with earlier runs and inconsistent with outcomes more typical with the evolving pattern). I continue to like the idea of a sharper PNA ridge and sharper trough in the East. We'll see where things stand in coming days, but right now I'm not dissuaded from my thinking by this morning's GFS/GEFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman19 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Look at the pattern, strong arctic high pressure pressing down, a tropospheric polar vortex in southern Canada, this is a suppression/southern slider threat, not a cutter or hugger threat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 4 minutes ago, Paragon said: I dont know what the issue is because this seems to happen with EVERY storm. My hypothesis is that there may be a bias correction in the GFS in the middle part of its range that tends to promote discontinuity between its longer-range ideas and then its shorter-range ideas (the seeming phenomenon where storms are "lost" in the mid-range only to be brought back later). I'm not sure about that, but it is a hypothesis. It will be interesting to see if the ECMWF reasonably maintains its continuity with its 0z run.

But enough very cold air will be nearby to be tapped, so a primarily snow event from at least central NJ northward seems more likely than a mainly liquid event. The difference between the 6z and 12z run of the GFS is very large. That kind of dramatic departure often suggests a run that is an outlier. I'm looking forward to the 12z ECMWF.

Agree with suppression concerns over OTS, Regardless of what surface plots may show this far out if you start with the 500 and work your way down you can see there is no room for anything to cut in that pattern.

This is definitely a pattern that can produce something nice. Whenever you have higher heights over NE Canada and a 50-50 low with a deepening trough over the Midwest/TN Valley, we can put some major points on the board.

Beast storm verbatim. It phases to the point where NYC would see more snow than Boston. It keeps getting pushed back but that’s because the EURO is keying on the second piece of energy. The storm signal is still there and that’s what matters at this juncture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJwx85 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 This is our storm. We could still squeeze out an inch or two for the Christmas storm, but again, the upper level pattern doesn't support a system coming up the coast, rather out.

NJwx85 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Surface low tracks from Ocean City, MD to ACY to Suffolk County. It's the perfect track for 95% of the sub forum and revenge for the recent big storms that favored the East end of Long Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
