Updated Snow Map For Saturday
Colder than most at the coast, latest SREF shows most members with impressive frontogenetic forcing from 850-700mb becoming almost vertically stacked from PA/DE/NJ border on north and along the coast into Southern New England. I think this will be enough to overcome any warm air advection. -------------------- |

Take a look at the 300mb flow - there is an embedded jet of 120+ within that flow - our event from BD only had a 90 or so to work with. At H5 the embedded streak is around 70+. That should give us an indicator of why some of the things that happened this past storm will likely not happen this time around (like a coastal taking over in a slow manner and brining in a ton of WAA - or that it will be a lingering system).
http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis....php?sector=19# Don't take a nap during Saturday unless you don't mind missing the bulk of this event. And for the record, yes - I'm thinking no matter where you are in the region, this will be the theme. This post has been edited by Undertakerson: Dec 28 2012, 05:25 AM |

Where's PSU this morning? The 6z GFS is noticeably stronger with the system as it reaches his latitudes (deeper by about 4mb and that from an off hour run is a strong signal).
It still has no staying power though, but it could increase some totals for some of the NE coast. |

First, good morning all! Another Friday before a great Holiday, and unsettled weather at the helm.
As advertised, though disappointed some blocking didn't come in to slow this quick hitter down, but it has the SE bias I expected, and for once we are talking the southern edge of I-95, those sections just south and east that will out perform interior and north and west of 95. Not to be jaded, but 4" is, well, 4". Saw the guidance for the Wed/Thurs system, which brews out of a stalled front, and later today as this storm is all but settled, we can discuss that one. Now, I have go forth, dispense my brand of justice, American style ( Civil, not criminal ), and today features fun and games with PMA. I guess my intimacy with hard-headed carriers, serves me well dealing with models like the GFS  Hope you all have your own fun today, where ever it might be found. Opportunities abound. -------------------- "WE FEW, WE HAPPY FEW, WE (DEFORMATION) BAND OF (SNOW) BROTHERS"

Current radar and temps behind and ahead of the storm.
It's all about timing. If the northern branch connects with the Sub Tropical Jet then half foot of snow is possible anywhere from Northern Mid Atlantic to Southern New England. Snow is breaking out across Tenneessee right now so its cold enough for snow ahead of the systems
-------------------- Snow Totals Per Season:
2007-08: 21" 2008-09: 41" 2009-10: 39.5" 2010-11: 71.5" 2011-12: 14" 2012-13: 46.5" Average(since 1950) = 27.75" |
