And to be fair he didn't mention the 12z NAM specifically, just said he suspected the precip shield might extend further west in this setup than the global models are suggesting verbatim. NAM is probably just over-amped like usual 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM is probably just over-amped like usual Bernie is good at what he does. I used to work with him back in the day. Agree that the NAM is probably overdone with the amplification. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that track for you old heads in here? Yea but some of those winters had double the snow due to some big hits such as February 11th 1983 and there was a big one mainly south and east January 88 or 89 Wildwood picked up like 26” while PHL got literally flurries before the sun came out we were predicting 3-6 north and west 4-8 in and around the city. So yea 80s were active with some close calls and hits. Think we got 6” right near Thanksgiving in 1989. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it was snowier it was not nearly as snowy as our last 2 complete decades (2000's /2010's) Again big hits happened and well basically not much after 2016 and 2015. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ULL snows though are very much a plausible possibility with a C-1" Norlun trough now I’m reaching??? Nam sometimes wins with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that track for you old heads in here? Ez enough to go here and review those winters Lots of cold winters and individual cold winter months with low snow totals. 81&82, 84-86 in particular. Two great area wide storms that decade in 83&87 oops link https://www.weather.gov/wrh/Climate?wfo=phi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted Tuesday at 06:07 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:07 PM Long range continues to be a complete crap shoot, seeing lots of talk the last two days of the cold pattern breaking down next week much earlier than predicted. Today's GFS drops the arctic hammer AGAIN the first week of March wtf. Just when I was ready for spring warmth. Historic palm tree snow again and in March what gives? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the one where chopper 6 was in the air/clouds showing the dividing line between heavy snow and nothing.You could literally see the line in the air. I was out of my mind seeing SNJ getting hammered and just cloudy at my location (Horsham). Really couldn't understand it at the time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was way tougher pull to swallow than what’s going on right now, but honestly looking back on models Friday and where we were potentially headed it’s close! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted Wednesday at 03:01 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:01 AM Mesos are starting to pick up on a norlun feature as the ULL swings through on Thursday. We had one of these about a month ago and it gave us a little over an inch. Wouldn’t be surprised to see something similar with this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
