Storms R’ US 80 Posted January 25 35 minutes ago, StretchCT said: The euro op and eps really aren't that far off. Just a difference in the orientation of the trough/cut off is either bringing it up the coast or pushing it out to sea. Euro op does develop a storm. But as noted above, with the positively tilted trough, it kicks out. We've seen a lot of positively tilted troughs this year. With all that rain in Delaware and SNJ the CMC was showing, I would love to see it kicked out. BTW those crazy totals the CMC was showing. The other storm showed those too and the storm went inland and brought the warmth and rain. One would wonder if a strong storm like this could actually do the same thing, bring in a lot of warmth rain and move inland especially if the trough isn’t that positively tilted.

You gotta stop saying that everything went inland, because the truth of the matter is, it didnt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last I saw the L was south of LI and heading ENE. Did it perhaps clip SE MA (not the cape - I don't consider the Cape inland). If it went over New Bedford/Taunton/Plymouth.... whether that's inland is debateable. When talking evacuating a hurricane, it is, but weather wise, I still think coastal.

My unsolicited 2 cents is that storms have consistently favored inland snowfall versus coastal snowfall all season. Therefore, in my humble opinion, expecting this storm to be different is much closer to wishcasting than it is forecasting. Edit: maybe coastal locations end up getting rocked, but the odds are stacked against that occurring. Edited January 25 by StL WeatherJunkie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avsguy 152 Posted January 25 Maybe we are being fooled by the models atm. Seems like all year the models pick up on something and it goes away. Just maybe the models don't see much this time around, yet the stars will magically align. One can still hope i suppose 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One can still hope i suppose I wouldn't say they go away...but I would say that the NW trend is legit (to STL's point)...many storms, at least to me, this year have verified 100-200 miles (just a spitball number here) further NW compared to where they're modeled 7 days out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StretchCT 1,606 Posted January 25 Normal times this is a good spot for the GFS to be placing a storm this far out. 200 mile shift NW may not help this one though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, that low did push some into PA and brought the warm air and rain. Before it was showing the L south with substantial snowfall. The models have been all over the place and like some have said are having a difficult time. They might even have a difficult time on this cold outbreak e.g. how cold, how far reaching, and how long it will last? With WTC temperatures forecasted where we live in the upper 20’s Wednesday-Saturday and back up to mid 30’s Sunday, that’s not bad and short lived 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plowxpress 107 Posted January 25 This is probably for long range thread, but the unrelenting Pacifc flow crashing into the west and the pacific flow flooding the conus shown on this map is crazy. Without that letting up, it is going to be very difficult to get a snow storm on the EC. Especially when there is just no blocking to hold these cold blasts in place. They come in for a couple days and then warms back up. We need a huge pattern change and not sure we are going to get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know why, but this one gives me a good feeling. I just feel it in my bones. This is going to be our storm in the Northeast come especially the metro area. I'm going out on a limb and saying that now. If it doesn't pan out, let the kanning begin 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now can we do our NW dance from here???? Again without blocking, we are going to all have to get together and will this thing to turn up the coast. Lots of questions and uncertainties. At least there is something there to track.........today anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In Pennsylvania, the highest pressures are observed between September and November and the lowest pressures occurred between March and May. On average, pressures are ~3 mb higher during the fall than the spring and the most rapid drop in pressure occurs between January and March. This is just a long-winded way of saying the stronger storms being advertised have climatic support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
