Mid level warmth is usually under forecasted in these setups.  Almost every single time, I start hearing pingers after initial snow much sooner than progged.  It is almost a given. 

Not in this case.  This thing is strung out and weak.  I'm more concerned with QPF amounts than I am mid level WAA.  This is one that if we had a stronger disturbance could have dropped solid snow amounts.  But I am skeptical at the moment this may trend drier and drier.

Any possibility of models picking up greater enhancement as we get closer?

Multiple cars stranded on the Cross Island right now due to flooding.

That’s a bad road with no shoulders and bad drainage. That used to be a bypass for the van wyck...Now it has more traffic than the van wyck!

 

Pretty dense for up here in westchester for 10am. I thought it would lift as the day went on

The question is if the overrunning aspect can produce when it bumps into the high.  You can see on most guidance and ensembles there is a period where the disturbance produces less QPF over OH/PA then invigorates again.  That is somewhat suspect unless we see that invigoration as a result of overrunning because the disturbance itself is not much to love.  One thing to like is the Euro likes this system and has been running hot lately.

Thanks for the analysis.  What factors would strengthen overrunning?  Stronger HP to our northeast or different positioning of the HP?  Greater magnitude of blocking?

It’s like a muddy swamp out there. I just saw a mosquito with temperatures near 60 degrees here on Long Island.

That mosquito had to survive many many subfreezing hours since early November. Let it bite you...it probably has tonic that will let you live a long life :)

 

I do notice temps on LI seem exceptionally warm this morning. +9 or 10 from rest of the region

Haha. Long Island hasn’t been that cold this month. Islip should be close -1 after the warmth today. This was the 4th day above 50 degrees in December.

Anything worth discussing around Christmas week or the weekend before? 

The models have a split flow looking pattern. A northern stream low through the GL and a southern stream disturbance. Not much in the way of cold air with a dominant Pacific flow. A really amped low would kick up the ridge ahead of it. Too weak and the southern stream could slide south. We would probably need some type of amazing thread the needle to make this set up work.

I dont think it would be thread the needle with the AO crashing and the NAO going negative.

The average forecast high for Central Park on December 13th is 44° so 50° is not a big deal. What's a big deal is temperatures in the teens for lows and highs in the 20s for Thursday and Friday this coming week really going to knock down the departures and looks very unlikely we'll finish with a positive departure for December

Looking over 2meter temperatures on today's 12z Global's so far it looks like we will be below freezing from about 21 Z Wednesday through 18z Sunday. This is not way out in Fantasyland either starting in about 4 days. that would be a pretty impressive cold for this time of year

Not impressive by any means. Below average. Yes.

The -AO and -NAO won’t matter if the fast Pacific flow doesn’t relax. Notice how the record Pacific Jet keeps knocking down the PNA.
