Possible frontal wave snow


Zelocita Weather
 Share

Recommended Posts

The 0z NAM looks pretty unimpressive.  Dry and SE.  The ribbon of moderate post-frontal precip. from MD through EPA, SENY, and SNE consistently shown for the past few days is not very impressive as depicted.  This might be good for the immediate coastal areas and Long Island, but there's not much NW of there.  I hope it comes back some tomorrow.

um the trend--models are cutting back slowly but surely.   Light to moderate rates won't do it especially after 2 days of rain and temps in the 50's.    Could be another win for the Euro which has never been impressed with this system.

Temps are going to be near freezing when the front passes through.  1-3 is a good call.

Another whole day of modeling tomorrow

Agreed, never been a fan of this one. In midtown it will be what snow? Expecting a slushy coating on paved surfaces on the uws, maybe an inch or two on the grass. The grounds going to be radiating heat!

No matter the latest models, this is still worth watching for any last minute changes.  But yeah, keep expectations low. 

These things always end up west the last few years because of the tendency of any degree of ridging in the western Atlantic to be stronger than modeled, even at 24 hours you usually are good for a tick west

Throwing in the towel already ?

for anything more than an inch on the grass/car tops, yeah-hate seeing the Euro never be on board for this one, looks like it will turn out to be right.    Too little QPF and with temps in the 50's for 2 days  and with marginal temps this won't be much.

Hate it also this close to the event. Maybe we can get a miracle today.

This is what happened in 2016. It kept ticking west at the last minute.

QPF queens will get burned with this one.

The only question I have is if the whole thing ticks NW.  Regardless I think there will be isolated 5-6 inch amounts with this though the majority will only see 1-2 and there will be a screw zone, possibly in between 2 areas that do better
