jbenedet Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 33 minutes ago, CoastalWx said: It might be, that's why I said the 12z stuff probably will be the deciding factor, but even the NAM sort of showed this. The shallow baro zone is well off, but there is definitely a tilt back above 850mb to the west. I'm staying conservative, but I have my eye open for that too. Decent NE inflow from 950-850 too all the while temps drop at that level. Could be light snow just from that. Def need to watch 12z. The GFS at H500 has trended less progressive the past several runs—has a look of playing “catch up” into go time. I also agree that the BZ at 850 doesn’t look to be in a location too far offshore, historically speaking. In fact it’s pretty close to the BM. I think there’s room to see a few more ticks north/west into go time. I’d at least be strongly hedging that way, thinking current guidance consensus is along the “south/east margin of the cone”, if you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 NAM with a decent shift west. Nice consolidated s/w. Not sure how far west it can get, but the meat of the precip shield is kissing SE MA now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 If 12z bumps west again, I’ll start a thread. Itll be close.... some models are not far away from giving PVD Boston and SE a decent little event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Is it just me, or does this season have a hell of a lot of uncertainty...very close in. We’ve had this issue with quite a few systems this winter it seems so far..36 hours out and we still don’t know if it will snow or not in a lot of places????

RGEM at 06z was still juiced. 06z GFS was 2-4, Euro was nada. Models are all over the place so we focus on MLs and see if we can wring out some moisture.

CoastalWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 NAM tries to close off H7-H6 over ern/ctrl MA into ern CT. Might be something to watch further west as well. I know QPF does not reflect it, but we all know the caveats with those features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that doesn't mean we can't tick a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 You'd think that H5 s/w induced snow over PA would just meander east and blossom with the stuff in srn areas, but it gets pulled SE last minute. That is nasty looking in PA. Has the look of a 60 car pileup on I-80 as temps drop in S+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFS seems to the most robust with the MLs look so perhaps it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pretty strong shortwave. So I wouldn't be surprised. But we will see. We're running out of time for big shifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 12z GFS looks better early on two. What I have noticed, is that my sh(*t streak is sliding east, and that Plains s/w is diving a bit more S and W..thus causing heights in the east to be a bit higher...AKA more western positioning of the srfc low. Like Will said, no bog jumps, but anything helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Yeah def a little better. We still need more help NW of 95 but southeast areas are def looking more likely for potential advisory snows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
