USCG RS Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 The first relevant run for snowfall specifics and exact track may not come until 12z Wednesday. Even with the 12z runs tomorrow, we have seen how much 24 hr snowfall forecast have been off with major systems in recent years.This has been a concern of mine from the beginning.

mikem81 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 RGEM 18Z. LP slightly NW through hour 36. Precip shield looks similiar though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 18z NAM has 50+ mph wind gusts the entire length of LI from late morning into the afternoon on Thursday...approaching 80 mph at MTP! I don't care if it's sunny and 70 in NJ, calling this run a whiff or a miss is psychotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 The other thing to consider with the strong winds is the ice build up on the large LI bays. There could be quite a bit of dock damage with the ice getting all blown in the same direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this setup though, the storm could be tucked well inside the benchmark and most of Long Island would still be all snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On par with feb 15 in the great South Bay. 50mph northerly gusts are going to cause major ice damage to docks and piers on the north side of fire island. This is not something we have had to deal with ever as far as I know. Also any snow that falls on the ice will blow across the bay and burry the same areas. Similar to what buffalo saw during their epic storm in 77. More drifting off ice then actual falling snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is precisely why I called out that the high winds forecasted apply to LI, rather than a blanket statement that the storm is a miss or a hit. I'm not committing on snowfall totals. Right, wrong, or indifferent the models are not done swinging around and I am quite certain that I lack the synoptic smarts to go toe to toe with a modern computer model.

Up until 8-9pm it looked like a major bust and that saved it to at least be a significant event. A few systems have had lows pass fairly far out east and we get saved a bit from the upper trof or low from the west with expansion or further development of the snow shield despite being too far south and west to be aided by the phase or capture of the main low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
