Of course 2-3 feet still sounds awesome, but back then it sounded like eleventy feet. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A system that goes negative tilt too fast will have mixing issues. So thread the needle refers to the system being less amplified so we can stay all snow. Expand It would be interesting to see what the five biggest all snow storms were with a positive AO and NAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The storm should slow down as it rapidly strengthens and the trough tilts negative. Dont need blocking for a 24 hour storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doorman Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 ...Weather Highlights/Threats... Key Messages for January 28-30 (Friday-Weekend) Winter Storm: Confidence is increasing that a significant winter storm will create considerable impacts Friday through the weekend from the Mid-Atlantic through the Northeast. While uncertainty continues with the track and intensity of this system, it is becoming more likely that it will bring significant snow, sleet, and freezing rain to the region, including the I-95 metropolitan areas. Hazardous travel conditions are possible due to the combination of snow, sleet, freezing rain, and wind. Close to the immediate Atlantic coastline, strong winds combined with high astronomical tides may lead to coastal flooding. Please continue to monitor for future updates as this system develops. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could all trend slightly one way or another and cause big changes to the outcome. I've seen mixing or changing or out sea tracks with -AO and -NAO too. I'd rather have a +PNA than a -NAO or -AO. Expand What you really want is a -AO and +PNA combo. That's when you can fire up the weenie bus with some more confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gpsnavigator Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 nudge it a little west, but not too far. I don't want to be in the complete pummel with snow zone, maybe a foot would be neat, but my enthusiasm wanes soon after that. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Be careful what we wish for. I'm not going to pretend I am not still hoping for a west trend to bring in the 20+ inch totals but also know that too far west and we mix so it's a delicate line. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
