Makes perfect sense honestly, the track is further East, in line with the rest of the guidance, but the precip shield is nice and expansive on the NW side of the storm.

The closing off upper air lows should help throw back snow further west. Great run for everyone. Hopefully we see these amped west solutions on some ensembles move east and we narrow down to an offshore NJ track.

That’s like the blizzard of 78 track where it closed off and performed a counter clockwise loop south of LI

But its actually quicker moving than the last run. It clears most of the area by midnight now, earlier western zones. It also has a screw zone in between 2 max areas but I doubt that will remain the case

Because it was so right last week? Most weeks? Historically?

The NAM IMO performed the best with the storm threat last Saturday. It was a bit too accumulation happy for certain areas, but it was the first model to pick up on the snow and the did great with track and intensity.

It's very rare to get a storm, especially a coastal storm that last more than 12 hours unless you get a strong block and some overrunning. Last Saturday's event was a perfect example of that, except for obviously we had no cold air to work with.

The 3k NAM is definitely snowier than 12z around the city. Looks like a slightly further east track but it's a little more amped than the 12k NAM. Seems like it also has a few low centers so it appears to jump around. The south shore looks like it probably rains for part of it when the low gets closest but there's back end snow when the temps cool back down.
