I'm a little surprised that EWR has rarely gotten more snow than ISP over that stretch, and never by much. I guess it's not far enough NW. Overall the stations are pretty similar most years.

Yeah, ISP has averaged around 40” since 2010. Newark is running closer to 35”. It’s been the best era for snowstorms tracking near the benchmark which favors Long Island.

Yeah I saw that. H5 looks potentially promising even though ensembles are unexciting. The 12z CMC has it too. Too bad it's so far out.

I'm actually hoping it slows down a day cause I have a flight out to FL that day :-), but the GFS has had it off and on for a few days now and it's stuck with 2/14. So I guess we'll see.

One month ago that was true. Not anymore. Days are noticeably longer. Spring is near.

I'm not too thrilled about the future pattern. The lack of blocking hurts. 

We got away with it in 13/14 & 14/15 because the PNA/EPO were extremely favorable. This season is one big mashup that barely works.

For us too, glad to be done with those inland winters for now anyway

The Euro monthly is going for a February mean trough position in the Plains. So a warmer monthly departure than January but colder than December. Looks like around a +1 to +2 pattern here if the forecast works out. 
 

 

Yeah that works late Feb, and most importantly we do not have a deep negative NAO like December to cause compression with the SE ridge.

Perfect trailing wave pattern.

Amped cuts weak snow.

it's not even late February, it's mid February, the ideal time for snow for us.

I'm loving the Feb 13-14 potential. There is great antecedent cold HP we just need to lock it in and it's very close to happening. It would not take a big shift to bury many locations along and even east of I-95.

WX/PT

Lots of stuff has looked good 8-9 days out. We gotta reel it in - bring it inside 5 days to take it seriously.

Whats the biggest danger with it-- coastal hugger or too far offshore?

Or not being cold enough regardless?

We didn’t have the big gap between snowstorms this year that we had last year. Our January snowstorms were only 3 weeks apart. Last year we had a big intermission between the mid-December and early February events. So another period to watch for snow in mid-February would only be a little over 2 weeks later than our last snow on the 29th.

seems like people are excited about that time period-- whats the biggest risk: hugger, offshore or just not cold enough either way?

Hard to know any details for the day 8-10 period. But the EPS and GEPS have an impressive +300 to +400 meter 500 mb height anomaly just off the West Coast. So a general storm signal exists in mid-February.
