WIth that feature, it's then a question of how much does a trough from the tropospheric PV over Northern Canada build southeastward upstream of that ridge. That type of upper-level trough would allow for a better cold air source in the Northeast US. The operational GFS is also suggesting some strengthening of the subtropical jet around the 15-day time-frame, another factor that may give us more luck with storm chances. In any case, March is often a relatively snowy month climatologically, especially in the northern and high-elevation portions of Central PA. Great to hear from you heavy. Yeah as the strato appears split right now at least the odds of getting the downwelling on our side of the globe has some merit. Just wish the PNA would cooperate is it would help to give more time to buckle the flow and let em grow a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol if the 12z Euro has it's way, you'll be able to do that in a few days. It pulled the canderson P-Day miracle out a hat with a significant snowstorm for most of our region (heavy snow favoring southern half). 95 corridor from Baltimore to Boston gets whacked. There's support from the Canadian which also has a similar big snowstorm. Some rumblings of it on GEFS ensemble guidance but GFS/GEFS not really there with it too much at the moment (too far southeast/weak). We're talking mid-range with this.. approx in the 108-120hr range so it's certainly a viable threat if it starts showing up more consistently in the next model cycle or so. This would be on the heels of the next system (mostly rain) that should briefly drop in a frontal passage with some decent cold. Timing is big, so is amplitude.. Euro simply has a more amplified shortwave than the GFS with some southern stream interaction despite a zonal and progressive flow. It's enough to fire off a bigger storm. Will be interesting to see what further runs do with this. Models had been playing around with a potential system but much further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The weekend snowstorm potential really improved today on just about all model & ensemble runs. Hopefully 0z runs tonight continue the positive trend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The 18z GEFS has 15 of the 20 ensemble members showing at least a couple of inches of snow this weekend in the LSV. The mean for most of CTP is 3 inches on this run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawatch Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The Euro almost disappeared on the latest overnight run. "way south" Harrisburg just gets the northern fringe. GFS looks decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also saw the 6z GFS and it is less amped ( but like showme, i'm no fan of off hour runs, and only look at them for continuity of trends). I'm hoping the 12z gets back on track, as while I know the Euro is still king in many minds, the GFS now has some street cred. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine and i were just discussing what impact Thursday and Fridays Temperatures may have on the Saturday potential.

Dont forget Friday night will get below freezing (25ish), so it will help to cool surface in advance. 25 in mid feb will firm up the base nicely. likely will have cloud cover by early morning, I'd think we wouldnt waste much.
