Wetbulbs88 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 With the Euro coming aboard the Canadian suites, I'm beginning to think the NAM/GFS are missing some of the frontogen. Let's see what happens in about an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I'd probably go 6-8" areawide at this point, except 3-6" in SE Suffolk and down along the NJ shore where it probably will mix/change to rain. Some of the banding features/lift on the meso models look impressive, and there could be higher amounts to 10" where those set up. Only inhibiting factor is the speed it's trucking along it. It'll be a less than 12 hour storm for most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allgame830 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Still looks like a substantial hit tomorrow evening into early overnight. My call 5-8” locally 10 in some areas. I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of one or two 12” amounts but it would be very isolated in any persistent banding. Pecip should begin around 4pm tomorrow could possibly begin as light rain along the coast and NYC but should be very brief. All snow areas north and west. By 6pm snow will blanket the entire area and get increasingly heavy from 9pm to 3am. The snow will most likely abruptly shut off between 4-7am from west to east. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in agreement but want to see what the NAM has to say in an hour before making my first call. Very strange, these late/still paltry NAM runs.

Very strange, these late/still paltry NAM runs. Don't be surprised if it stays the same. It was the first and for a while, the only model showing low qpf here last night and higher qpf for you guys It seems to be the only model that's handling this pattern with some sort of direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_other_guy Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 There was a week in mid January in the mid to late 2000s where we had several snows in a row that began to pile up. That was the last time I remember this. And for record, tomorrow will be day 4 of snow for anyone N or W of the mid Bronx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're not including Traces being reported for the day then it was probably a long time ago. Have to get Don or Uncle to dig that up. It might have happened in Jan, Feb or Mar of 15'. Even though the real goods were up in Eastern Mass., it was still a very pattern/winter for the NYC area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetbulbs88 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 00z NAM isn't much better. QPF a little better but still temp issues. Still a pretty big disparity considering the lead time at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowlover11 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 yeah a little warmer, temp issues at the coast for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it's right but this is a tricky call along the coast precip type wise and a tricky call for the far interior zones qpf wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD snowmap assuming 10:1 product doesn't line up with accumulated precip product. Doesn't make a difference because it's just a map. I'm not overly concerned considering it being a nighttime event.

SnowGoose69 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The ratios will be 9-10:1. Remember surface temps don’t have a huge impact on ratios though much of the event will fall at 31-32 near the coast once we evaporate down the profile from 700-850 and light winds supports close to 10:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetbulbs88 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The NAM must be very confused. It has big snow totals in areas it depicts as mainly raining. I'm at the point where the NAM to me can't be totally trusted quite yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
