unless the trough sharpens, i dont see next weeks system coming up the coast. with the pv sliding down into the GL and broadening to the NE like that. its an OTS solution. its a give and take......so if the pv isnt as strong and doesnt expand to the E or NE, then theres a shot. but then we have to account for the energy in the plains, when does it dive in? i dont expect this to be ironed out until the norlun event unfolds. and if that is further SW then currently progged, then mid week potential is also further south.

theres alot of pieces that are just beginning to be put together...and then theres many more pieces after that. its like you cant build a proper home without a strong foundation, and this weekend we begin to build the foundation.

Classic weather board post right here. Essentially what you are saying is that if the environmental factors needed to bring the storm up the coast do not exist...the storm will not come up the coast. I have to say, I agree. :P

i expect next weeks event to come north and once storm 1 passes I think the models will start showing it..

yea reading it back, it does sound like that.... lol the John Madden of weather

but its for those people that are looking at the models and worrying about qpf or where the sfc low placement is. theres no point in doing that. just look at the "envionmental factors" lol, those will be better served.

This one is going to bold well for us...you can see the energy diving down from the midwest just a tad too late...that will change...plenty plenty of time to go on this one. More energy, sharper S/W should allow the trough to go negative sooner. I think the end result will be a real beast for MA on northward.

I love having the GFS suppressing the storm in this timeframe. Much rather have the storm modeled to my south now than be in the bullseye 6+ days out.

This is not a classic supressed solution. The storm comes north just not in time because the energy is not strong enough to dig out a nice sharp trough. The end result is a broad trough weaker solution. Expect this to change as we get closer

Agree...the biggest storms we have had in the Northern MA have always been suppressed until a couple days prior...it is as they say a normal bias. I am expecting a wide spread "significant" winter storm next week.

Should be an interesting week!

I'm still liking the I-84 corridor for a jackpot area from NE PA to SE NY. Maybe the area sandwiched between I-80 and I-84 (north to south) across that region.

I still don't think many places, even in that area get over 4 or 5 inches. The rest of our region primarily 1-3".

This event should be fun to watch unfold.

GGEM looks like a appalacian mountain transfer jump to coast and redevelopment.. The GFS has been remarkably consistant showing that storm hitting us, pretty far out.. this is like the first time this morning that it deviated.. I'd say that's good news having such good consistancy this far out.

yup, and how soon that primary dies and when the coastal becomes the main one determines who gets rain or snow or mix.
