Powerful Multi-regional/ multi-faceted east coastal storm now above medium confidence: Jan 29 -30th, MA to NE, with snow and mix combining high wind, and tides. Unusual early confidence ...

I don’t have a good feeling about this one.  Big storms show early, generally, and when the ops waver it is no problem if the ens still look good.  Clearly we need a shift in the data.  The trend that we wake up to Tuesday morning will tell the tale for most while the eastern people hump, pump or jump every 6 hours.

Sort of looks like this when it comes to hitting the "target".....

Coming out now

[CoastalWx]

Gfs was basically all one s/w and no real phasing. Euro tries to phase. So two different ways to get something.

We go thru these same post every storm.

Hopefully this works out because that's it for snow chances for most given the warm Feb coming up. 

Only place that might snow after Jan is NNE.

I guess we are looking for day 6-7 jacks. Those always work out.

[CoastalWx]

If we can get the s/w mossing off the Mid Atlantic at hr 114 on the 6z EPS, that leaves room to come closer. 
6z EPS takes the s/w at the base of the trough and tries to blow it up at the end of the run. For 6 days out, I don’t have a huge issue. I get what the caveats are.

Flow is too fast for amplification

I know Ray thinks big boys happen frequently in Ninas, but there’s a reason so few do

They do for your area but this winter has been strange.

I don’t think anyone said that. But there are certain setups when they can happen.

Did we all forget 12/17/20 and  2/2/21?

To be fair, the least impressive (as far as snow is concerned) guidance this year has been right. I get why people are apprehensive about doing this song and dance again, especially when there are flags that this may end up a fish storm.

No argument There. I just don’t think this is it. With no blocking and fast Pac jet.. progression is a dagger

There is no point of getting excited anymore when any model shows something favorable past 200 hours.  Some years storms trend favorable but this year it's different.

That's it

Nothing to slow anything down

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

Also, that kicker on the west coast is trending in the wrong direction. Like many other storms this year, the turd in the punch bowl is trending more pronounced

Congrats to the tuna out there

It’s not a progressive pattern guys.

Not a bad spot 6 days out
