0z sends double digit totals into VT and torches the coast. how can these models be so far apart

It’s a conspiracy. They’re trying to make us all nuts.

Yes Frank GFS might be on to something and it would be a downer for some here I think it could be right.

Remember with Stella (3/14/17), the GFS was the south-eastern most scenario for several days. It wasn't until we got much closer that it caves to the other models for a more north-west type solution.

Re: 12/16 to 12/17 Godzilla - 1st Call Snow Map
I love the positive thinking math! This is so true too. but even CMC is i think nuts too far north too. We might just have to skip the globals tomorrow and go with the SR.@Math23x7 wrote:Remember with Stella (3/14/17), the GFS was the south-eastern most scenario for several days.

The GFS is stubborn but it will cave tomorrow.

I don't know, just because its consistent doesn't mean it is right. It's done this before only to cave. The Euro and CMC have been consistent also and my money is on a blend of those models.

The entire 00Z suite came a tad further N and W except the GooFuS. That should happen tomorrow or should I say later today.

Euro was a good hit 12-18 for most.

Also, 6Z guidance, including 12km NAM, 3km NAM, and RGEM seem to have the northwest shift as well.

All those models show a foot of more I-80 North and away from the immediate Coast amazing how consistent to Euro has been showing a foot or more of snow for the New York metro area

6z GFS largely the same as it has been. In fact all the models have been (other than the NAM which underwent a big - positive for most - change yesterday afternoon) largely consistent.
If I had to summarize it would be that North Jersey is getting slammed with a massive snowstorm no matter what model you buy into as are the NW Philly burbs and immediate NYC metro.
South Jersey especially along the coast is getting a rain or a mix that severely limits accumulation.
The only two areas in question are from Philly northeast right along I-195 in central Jersey which could be all heavy snow or if the NAM is right could have significant mixing which will make a big difference; and areas farther up the Hudson Valley which could get largely cutoff and limited to light snow totals if the GFS holds.

Re: 12/16 to 12/17 Godzilla - 1st Call Snow Map
This stubborn GFS is reading that high pressure which could suppress this storm much further south.Glad the other models disagree, but would like to see this cave over the next 24 hours.Bad memories of that "snowmageddon" year when NYC didn't see a flake while Philly got over 20 inches.

Looks like 6zgfs came north a fair amount actually. Most other models tucked in again ever so slightly. The subtle winshsheuld wipers as Bernie would say seem to be in effect. Slide these lines left or right by 5-10miles and you have the difference between 3-6” SE of yellow. 6”10” between yellow and blue, and 8-12” NW of blue.
