12z Euro cuts the storm way to the west, so it's much warmer than GFS and GGEM. Obviously a long way to go.

It's more amped as is it's bias but does develop a secondary and still has some accumulating snow for most, more north obviously. It's definitely something to track.

It does cut but still somehow dumps 6+ snow about 30 miles north of the city on north. 

Yes, because of an Artic high and it does develop a secondary that would help with cold air.

Regarding next Friday, I feel a compromise between the two camps this far out tends to have worked. One group seems to be overamped while the other is too progressive/suppressed. Yes, the GFS is generally late to the party to recognize it needs to bridge the gap but at 7 days no model has been consistently spot on this season. Other seasons one model might lock in at 7 days, not this one though.

Even the further south models right now are not surpressed for our region which is why the threat of a miss SE seems pretty low right now. Of course still a long way to go.

Another big temperature swing coming up. Colder weekend before more 60°+ potential next week. February battle between the +PNA and WAR.

and then back to colder and possibly snowier pattern by next weekend Chris?

Looks like record cold is diving into the middle of the country for the start of March?

A cool weekend lies ahead before much milder air returns next week for a time. Tomorrow will start with sunshine. However, the atmosphere will be highly unstable. As a result snow showers or a possible squall line could develop during the afternoon. The potential exists for parts of the region to pick up a quick coating of snow with some locally higher amounts. Sunday will be blustery and cold.

Overall, things remain on course for a warmer than normal second half of February. The potential exists for several days to see much above normal temperatures during that time. The probability that the warm pattern could begin to break down during the closing days of February has increased.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -1.3°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.7°C for the week centered around February 9. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.77°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.78°C. La Niña conditions will likely persist into at least mid-March.

The SOI was 0.00 today. The last time the SOI had a value of 0.00 was February 4, 2016.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.970.

On February 16 the MJO was in Phase 3 at an amplitude of 1.708 (RMM). The February 15-adjusted amplitude was 1.387 (RMM).

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 84% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal February (1991-2020 normal). February will likely finish with a mean temperature near 37.9° (2.0° above normal).

Don with the SOI being 0.00 for the first time since 2016 do you think we'll transition to an el nino for next winter?

NYC is +2.7 so far for February. Each cool down is followed by a more impressive warm up. So the coming week will be a continuation following the cool down this weekend. Looks like the month will end on a cold note as a major -EPO +PNA block sets up.

The next 8 days are averaging 37degs. (29/44) or just Normal.

Month to date is  37.6[+2.7].       Should be 37.4[+1.9] by the 27th.

Reached 59 yesterday(midnight).

Today: 38-41, clear skies then cloudy, wind w. to nw., 20 by tomorrow AM.

GFS now turning 5" of precip. into 20" of snow during next 16 days.    Good Luck with that for coastal areas.

30*(55%RH) here at 6am, little change since midnight.       38* by Noon.      39* at  1pm.---then brief fallback to 37* at 1:30pm and then up to 42* at 3pm.       Snow Squall here 3:10pm-3:35pm and T down from 42 >>> 34.       26* at 9pm.     25* at 10pm.

On the ensembles. Right around the beginning of March, another one of those +PNA spikes is coming into focus. That'll be something to keep an eye on again by default. 

The EPS has really been leading the way this winter on these big North Pacific blocking intervals. It spotted the late December shift going into January and then the GEFS eventually caught on . The GEFS is correcting toward the stronger EPS idea in recent runs. 

EPS

GEFS has been struggling 

New run more like the Euro

Older run too weak

That's why the Euro MJO is correct here
