donsutherland1 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Unlike with recent storms going back to December, ensemble support has been increasing inside a week for potential measurable snow in New York City for January 25-27 (focus is on January 25-26). A big snowfall remains highly unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasternLI Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Another stratosphere post since the target timeframe is approaching 10 days now. Dr Butler tweeted yesterday she referenced the nasa GEOS model. Without a doubt, this is who to pay attention to for this. So here's the GEOS model from overnight at day 10. Fairly robust run. Be interesting to see what trends or doesn't with this over the next several days. Gefs was a little more enthusiastic about it overnight also. Just starting to come into view on the euro as well. So we observe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still far out though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a normal winter I’d agree, in this winter seeing an hour or two of snow falling from the sky would be something lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman19 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 It's useless, going to quickly change to rain. It’s definitely going to all rain, even up where I am. Question is can you actually get something measurable on the lead front end? I guess it’s better than nothing since NYC has zero snow up to now, before the pattern goes completely to hell again the first week of February 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would, I've actually been adding those up. It happened one time in November for an hour, but it was at night and I didn't see it. It happened once in December for a few hours (that was the most we had, I would call it a heavy coating lol), but also at night, but you could see it on cartops and rooftops in the morning and the third time was last weekend and I actually got to see it because it was during the day and I'd call that a light coating. So three events, one did not accumulate at all, one was a light coating and one was a heavy coating. The change to rain thing is what I hate because it washes it all away as if it never happened.

What are the chances of any snow on the back end on Monday? That would be more interesting than a coating that quickly gets washed away by rain.

If you are moving from the city stay in the east side of the river for your sanity if you are staying with your job in the city. We love Putnam county plus you can always see snow at Thunder Ridge and it is an easy commute to the city with no damn bridge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This winter can’t be over, it never even started. Been nothing but a parade of cutters, inland runners and warmth since mid-November.

No one can reliably make 6 week weather predictions here or elsewhere. Beyond 2 weeks, even the best ensemble systems have limited skill. These are important points that should be kept in mind at all times. Yet, especially on some social media sites, long-range maps—even operational ones—are posted, frequently with accompanying claims, as if the events are essentially certain to unfold. Often the highlighted maps are the most extreme ones and they are deployed in a demonstration of confirmation bias. When the events don’t occur as forecast, one sees timelines adjusted e.g., the cold would be coming in early January, then mid-January, then late January and so one. Then, when a cold shot ultimately arrives, even if fairly unimpressive, forecasting “victory” is proclaimed. Instead, there was no real skill involved. No pattern lasts beyond a finite but irregular period. Thus, if one keeps claiming the “wolf” is coming, it will eventually show up. When it does, does this mean that there was forecasting skill? Of course, the same constraints on predictive skill apply in many other areas (financial market forecasts are rife with similar bold claims and lack of skill). The reality is that time comes with uncertainty. Longer forecasts can never be perfect. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
