You've mentioned the coastal scraper...but you don't think a legit costal-costal can happen? Or just the least likely?

Sure it can. I mention a scraper because the h5 look for the week of the 24th suggests it is a possibility based on the mean trough position/orientation.

I know you're longing  at the opportunity to drive to the beach and view another coastal blizzard but I prefer not to.  Let us  hope things change slightly by the week of the 24th . There appears to be the   possibility of a wave breaking event that could cause a transient negative NAO,  if so,  maybe the coast of plain can get some sort of a moderate all snow event .

Ah okay. But man why do ya WANT a scraper tho? Lol

There are degrees of everything. That offshore tracking 'bomb cyclone' in 2018 was an all out blizzard on the immediate coast, but still produced a moderate 6" storm at my house. Obviously I chose to drive an hour to experience the blizzard.

One of my favorite storms on barnegat bay.  Had 3" an hour on the bay for 2 hours under deform band... 18.9 inches storm total. 8.5 miles inland at my deer stand had 8.1 inches. We had verified gusts to 71mph at several nearby stations.  I lost mine to my patio furniture.

I stayed at Rehoboth beach in DE. I think the total was around 14" but so much drifting I couldn't tell. It was epic though.

Way back in 2011 or 2012, or 2013 they were.  I should know, but haven't had them pop up on my ais system for quite a few years.  (Time flies) I may have cancelled them on my vessel's ais recieving signals to avoid clutter though.   Sorry, I'll take a look.

Lived out in ocean City New Jersey for that storm. Incredible getting 16 inches of cold powder considering how quick of a mover it was. Still to this day it had the strongest winds I’ve ever experienced in a snowstorm.

Was an experience.  I had 4-6 foot drifts along the entire bay where I live.  Very difficult storm to gauge an accurate snow total. I gave up on my 3 boards as soon as we had sustained 35 knot wind.   Sorry for the hijack and glasses raised to another system like that.

I think coastal scrapers are to you what a close cutter is to @WinterWxLuvr...But I'm biased because both of those skunk my yard, lol

Dumb question but we want the energy to be ejected correct instead of held back?

With all the vorts flying around in the NS and digging south I am not sure it matters. The GFS almost got it done at 12z with a sw dropping in over top the western ridge and left most of that southwest energy behind. It's active and difficult to know what piece(s) of energy end up being 'the ones' at this juncture.
