I posted this in the NYC forum but this is pretty close system setup to the 12/15/89 bust we had.  I think it busted up in SNE too...badly in eastern areas and good for western people.

I don't remember what happened here but aren't forecasting tools much better in 2017 vs 1989?

It’s not so much how far west is the low as the fact that so far 0z delays the dynamics such that the snow thump is less maximized.  The temperature profile is a direct result of the dynamics but many weenies are ignoring that fact.

The low is a touch west.

I disagree that the track doesn't matter....east winds penetrate further inland.

Who gives a sh*t.  What made Xmas good in prior runs was that big thump from the deepening low.  This time I see a system that winds up 3 hours later at a time too late for our latitude to maximize.

The ocean.

Sorry...the deepening rate and wind direction both matter.

But that doesn’t matter really.   The later dynamics make a big difference.

Here's my issue with the GFS . 2 soundings 6 hrs apart. A 1006 low south of LI with snow in HFD then a 998 near the Cape and it's raining? How are there SE winds at the surface with a low near the cape? Transfer is complete and thats a thump sounding

Most of these solutions still hit the coast at the end.

 

But this is def a N&W of 128 type look in terms of heaviest amounts. Could jack the Berks too on some of these IVT enhancement scenarios with the ratios they'll have. But Ray's hood to ORH could get a man-snow warning event...though it flashes to 20F powder at the end.

I think the make or break in this system has always been dynamics.  Without that it wasn’t going to do anything beyond mundane mix.

Well, the 00z GFS still drops 10" of snow...just further inland.

I respect your point, but the wind direction is huge in our area in December....and a closer track adds more easterly component.

I agree.....said the same thing a bit ago.
