SnowFreak2000 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 1 minute ago, SnowGoose69 said: Winds start backing though over the next several hours to more E. Even with a S-SE wind now everyone has underachieved on highs. The problem with this event is best QPF is north and a warm nose in the mid levels will work in. That warm air advection moves in after most of the qpf is done with. I still think nyc proper changes to sleet not rain, and after it gets a solid 1-3 inches. Bronx obviously has a higher chance at 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think there are issues right at the coast, but turning the winds more east could help. Dews are great for this event. We should all wet bulb nicely.

Has axis of heaviest snow south of us but has slowly been coming north. Maybe we can angle that think right across the area Yea I'm noticing the models are trending north with the snow for Wednesday, skeptical but think theres a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle W Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 NYC needs 1.3" to reach 10" for the season...not the great winter I was expecting...I guess we were due for a clunker...the winter has some similarities with the 1936-37 winter...that winter ended up with 16" for the season...

I would have had no idea based on this thread. I just see a lot of complaining and bickering. It would be nice if we saw more model analysis in this thread for those who don't have access.

weatherpruf Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 15 minutes ago, LongBeachSurfFreak said: Explain to me how posting pics of snow is not part of a weather forum but constant reminders of how you hate snow is? It’s turned into an every day thing and it’s getting really old. Nice onshore flow currently on the south shore, which is my reasoning for low expectation right at the coast. This is a 20 miles inland event. Older than people predicting cold and snow for the last 90 days? Seems appropriate that people on a weather forum might be inclined to opine on said weather....everyone needs to lighten up a bit. If I want dry analysis I can just go read the forecast discussion at Mt. Holly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna be a little bit honest here, and say my knowledge of weather is rather limited. Shocking, I know, but true. All I know about gradients is that I'm often on the wrong side of them.

bluewave Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 37 minutes ago, weatherpruf said: So what should we make of that? The -EPO ridge starts pressing eastward near Alaska. This causes the cold currently focused out West to slowly filter to the east near the end of the month. Sometimes we can get wintery threats if we are on the right side of the gradient. Still need some more time to know for sure how the actual pattern will set up at the start of March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
