JAN 20th-22nd potential..

Is there a lag associated with influence of the MJO and GWO.....in other words once they move into better position for us does it take a few days for its effects to actually be felt?

Not really, since they are continuous. When the signal is strong (like now), you can feel pretty confident in their H5 correlations. Of course, the storm systems are a function of s/w activity moving through the longwave pattern set up by them.

12z Nam at 84 hours looks really healthy. The one thing that I would like to see is a high up north. Without that, this storm has a chance to be a coastal hugger.

Its hard to say where that is going, those types of storms where you get a phase between the north and south disturbance over the MW in a flowing type of pattern usually are decent events north of TTN but sometimes have a risk of being very sleety and rainy south of there, sometimes sleet can even make onto LI...usually 3-6 or 4-8 inch type events.

there is a very large 1036mb high right behind the storm....thats fine

GFS showing a moderate hit at 96 for Philly...more for LI, NYC, etc.

Looks like the low begins to bomb out just after it passes Philly followed by a cold shot.

Philly looks like a 2-4" type event verbatim...guessing LI and SNE are 6"+, NYC probably 3-6...

interesting stuff showing up for FRI. its been all or nothing around here the past couple winters but this system looks to skew the mean.....a decent hit for alot of folks.

im wondering though what affect will this have on our potentially bigger system end of wknd?

that potential storm is actually just the Euro shearing out the Fri event and hanging a piece of the s/w back west too long - a typical bias it has. So really it's not a separate storm, it's just a piece of the first storm being delayed.

Yep...and the GFS has been quite consistent on the timing of the storm being Friday AM.

Would this phase delay the storm until saturday?

No, it would just be a much more explosive storm. Look at the 12Z CMC for potential scenarios. The CMC for once isn't a big pile of junk and has a realistic threat potential that the GFS is trending to over the last few runs in the op and ensemble.

I agree this is a Fri/Sat threat, the 2 runs of the euro were keying in on the wrong energy which it was haging back. This run of the gfs is cloe as you say to a very nice storm. It'll be intersting if the GGEM can hold serve and the ecm has a more robust and amplified system.

I don't understand why people keep saying that. This isn't a Snowstorm or out to sea scenario. It could clearly be a situation where it's too warm on the coast and is a valid concern, even this far out

96 hour lead time is far too great to call temp gradient, unless you believe 2m will be in the 40's Fri on the coastal plain

The point is, we're not getting worked up over details of where to place a rain/snow line on a 96 hour prog.
