So I'm gonna wait and see a couple more cycles. Also watching the Saturday system, I wouldn't be surprised if that drops a few inches on us. Thursday night into friday morning might be our best chance. NAM has a 3 inch snowfall for central Jersey and RGEM is close too. Just need a tiny nudge north.

mikem81 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 EURO has been unreliable this week. The Saturday storm (which is no longer) was an inch of rain just 2 days ago. The ensembles should be interesting. The GEFS and GEPS are all offshore near the BM with not even one member running inland 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would need continued north pushes on that closer to what the NAM has had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman19 Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 No -NAO, SE ridge flexes, no -AO to lock the TPV in SE Canada, the TPV stretches and lifts north because there’s no AO block, storm will cut just like the Euro showed. Very believable scenario (cutter, rain) and IMO the most likely for Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very believable scenario and IMO the most likely for Monday The best part right now is how the area gets missed north tonight and missed south Friday. Would be remarkable if again we see the PHL-NYC snow hole happen with two events within 3 days. I think the Euro is way too amped on Monday. It’s classic Op Euro bias since the upgrade. Even so the system may track too close for the area to see entirely snow regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I would just root for something good to come out of Friday or Saturday because those potential events impact what Monday does somewhat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 15Z SREF just jumped on Friday. It’s a SE PA C-SNJ max but it had virtually squat on the 09Z run. That said the NAM will probably go south now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metasequoia Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 12Z EURO ensembles improved from 0Z...much better than operational run. Not a bad place to be 4 plus days out IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s more consolidated meaning the precipitation shield is bigger which we needed if you want snow in New York City. Albeit it’ll be an inch or so but that plus Monday it’s looking very interesting times for tracking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikem81 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 GFS gets pushed east a little too early, but decent run and exactly what we wanted to see after the EURO. GFS has a huge amount of cold air coming in as the storm hits and thats what shuns it a bit east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need the global OP's to hop on board although in a winter like this with so many last minute changes, I'm not too sure I would want to be in the OP's bullseye 4-5 days out. The EPS? That's a different story. Put me in the bullseye of that any day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly bro that’s as best as it’s going to get because it’s a fast mover. edit: gfs FV3 is a stronger storm and closer to coast, doesn’t look like any rain for the immediate nyc region but Long Island switches over. Too far to be looking at that now. Very nice pattern coming up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericjcrash Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 18z runs were fun. Fv3 is pretty damn close to the often confused ICON, maybe the blind can lead the blind. OP GFS is nice as well. Would be an epic threading of the needle given the poor teles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very believable scenario (cutter, rain) and IMO the most likely for Monday Not necessarily, a lack of blocking in a -EPO pattern also leads to very progressive systems, which can sometimes work out for us. Blocking can even occasionally cause a storm to get overamped and cut inland vs a more progressive scenario. It'll also be March where shortening wave lengths render the AO mute. The Euro looks way too amped to me, ensembles are much flatter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
