Ralph Wiggum Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 Most guidance is primed for a winter storm this weekend. Euro, GFS, and ICON are hits i95 N and W. CMC and UKMET have the line much farther N and W. This is the place to discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zenmsav6810 Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 Looks like a pretty classical textbook SECS for most the area across most guidance. Model guidance seems to be verifying well with the recent more mundane weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 I'm heading back west on Saturday morning, just in time to miss the first big east coast snow in 2 years... Helped my dad pull the snowblower out and gas it up yesterday. Berks and the LHV usually does well in these types of storms, in fact even though we're still days away I wouldn't be surprised if they "jackpot" with heavier totals. All speculation as of now. One thing I've noticed just glancing at the models is there seems to be a cap on totals with this. A relatively quickly moving system so despite being a STJ brewed storm, there won't be much time to precipitate absurd amounts. 12-15" max type of storm, which is still great especially after the past few winters. GFS has obviously been trending much further north with Confluence in SE Canada retreating further north. Euro is better, CMC worse. Seems like a classic EC storm progression leading up! If I had to take a crack at where the heaviest band sets up, I'd say Northern Berks up through Lehigh, Schuylkill, Carbon, Monroe... That general area. I do believe amplification and a warmer solution is much more probable compared to getting a whiff south 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 The GFS coming in with it's most north and warm run yet. And as I suspected, it's weaker as well. The 12z CMC coming in south from it's previous runs though, almost lining up with the GFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 Very similar runs between the GFS and Canadian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillyPete Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 Well, we knew the NW trend was going to come. Now we get to watch the windshield wiper effect that says we'll get between 1-12" in PHL. It's the classic coastal plain battle.. although I don't remember seeing much of this last year at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Reilly Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 The trend is very clear last 12 hours north closer to coast weaker storm. I give to 0z tomorrow night. Bring on Euro! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
