I don't even care if the storm cuts across Long Island, that's far better than going out to sea. I'd honestly rather take a few minor snow events like this month so far than something like what happened with the March storm. The writing was somewhat on the wall with that but ending up with 3" of slop that was mostly washed away vs. a good shot at a foot or more and a blizzard watch 2 days before... no thanks. I'd much rather be here on guidance vs. us be in the bullseye now. The SE Ridge has also almost always strengthened close into events and storms end up more amped. Given that this is a Nina winter, it gives it even more likelihood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I never really like late March events because they seem to melt right away, if that was more like the Jan 2008 Heavy Snow Warning bust, I'd have a bigger issue with it. I was thinking more like the Millenium Storm if we could get a track like that and a dynamic storm like that one, it would be pretty amazing.

Enigma Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I think everyone is getting a little too excited about the Euro and EPS. Both are big-time misses. Relying on a Norlun is an ingredient for major letdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relying on a Norlun is an ingredient for major letdown. Way too far to be worried about the track, essentially it' going to come down how suppressd the jet stream gets pushed south. No doubt there will be a storm just how far north will it go. By Wednesday we should know for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveWinter Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 1 minute ago, SnoSki14 said: After seeing these past couple days transpire, things have become a lot more bleak. Also those who called for an inch or two for Christmas are going to be wrong. We also have about two weeks before the pattern breaks down to get snow otherwise those AN snowfall calls could be in jeopardy. This was always going to be a close call so forecasting 1-2 and getting nil is not really a huge bust. Regardless, some parts of the metro will indeed receive 1-2. As for the late week storm, still lots of time before anyone should press the panic button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true, but the late week storm is now losing the +PNA/-AO combo and the Euro/EPS are a miss, gfs is very flat as well. That's a very bad sign. We could end up cold and dry until the pattern breaks down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
