Seems like the solution is likely in between the two camps. NW of I95 SECS/MECS SE of I95 rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NW of I95 SECS/MECS SE of I95 rain. The snowfall map gradient on the NAM that I saw in the NYC forum is insane. A little over an inch for the city but SECS or more not far to the north.

Ralph Wiggum Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 3k NAM is textbook. Heavy hitter NW of I95 with rain SE of there. SE PA is essentially all snow this run give or take a couple miles on either side of the Del River. Gotta smell the rain to get the best snows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 3k NAM is much cooler than the 12k NAM. What we're seeing in most modeling, though, is to at first have the shortwave weaker, but it amplifies rather quickly to our SW, thus ushering in the mid level warmth. We want the amplification, it'll bring in the higher ceiling. But it also offers a lower floor with more warmth aloft. The best case scenario for the I-95 is to have the amplification occur just a smidge later in evolution. It would allow for better cyclonic flow into the areas without having to worry about rain.

Would 6" to 12" do the trick? 6-12" would be great for sun/mon, they've done commercial travel bans for much less this year on 95. I know there was one in effect when I was driving up to N Vermont on 1/8/19 and I dont know if that amounted to much for SNE or NJ. Also, 3am is the heart of the storm, so I dont see them sending us into a full fledged snowstorm, even if its raining here. Not risking my life to fix some crappy concrete floor... especially after seeing all those pileups in the midwest. . Edit: this should have been combined into one comment. Good thing we dont have a mod! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkd Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 18 z euro. 3-5 inches from tonight's snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 NAM's are colder and flatter, but also quicker and with less qpf. Still very good hits, although the quicker evolution won't have as high of a ceiling. 12k NAM 3k NAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The downside of a system farther SE is that it will be weaker, limiting your max snowfall potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually when the ECM jumps that far it's an over correction but it's chaos with these models now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkd Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I may be wrong but it seems the storm is moving through faster, thus the lower amounts of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SP Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Really.....1-4” at the cabin. There must be a curse ...or hex....perhaps some type of damnation combination for monmouth and carbon?Ok ok...it’s not all that bad....it is the second morning in a row I am enjoying the first cup of coffee while the ground is covered and snow falling.2.5 at 2100ft.....and counting.... flake by flakeSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We knew those crazy amounts of 15"+ on some guidance was never likely to verify. There was and is a high end limit to this system. In a relatively flat progressive flow you arent going to crawl a system up the coast or allow for the Atlantic to be tapped like a conveyor belt of moisture. So I'm not sure this is really a weaker system as you noted or just a reflection of lower qpf due to the fast moving nature of the system. I dont really recall it being a strong low pressure tbh...more a stretched out wave that is sliding by with stj moisture being transported N along the boundary.

SNOWmizzer Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 6z NAM looks to be a nice hit I-95 and up the LHV. I believe the GFS is to dry with the QPF in our region. NAM likely overdone here but don’t we usually see things trend wetter as we get within 24 hours? GFS did not do well for me with the storm last night. Got 4 when it showed 2. The Sunday event feels like a 4-8 event vs a 2-4 event as the GFS seems to think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 Thinking tomorrow is a general 3-6" event N and W of I95 with some higher 7" lollis sprinkled in. Will attempt to localize totals later today if/when time permits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
