44 degrees this morning. I had an inch of rock hard Ivey ground cover that was jus starting to fray on the edges. By last night, it was all gone. Just a pile from plowing left. The rain today will put a dent into the pile. It was a glorious day yesterday. Slept with the windows open last night.

Just wish we had these lp transfers like this one in February  March 2022 Obs & Discussions 1f612   It will snow and probably at a good clip. How far north the heavier rates get is debatable as is the marginal surface temps to work with.  If this was temps in the mid 20's then much more excitement.

Along and NW of I-95 1-3" seems reasonable to me on the colder surfaces.  I would wait another 3 or 4 model cycles before I trust the NAM's snow output.

Agreed.  just briefly looking at things like DP at the onset of the precip through the heaviest precip they are around 30.  If this is true then where the heaviest axis ends up could snow at a good clip for a few hrs negating some of the marginal temp issues while its falling.  Trends on the GFS and euro has def to increase total QPF as well.  Could be a sneaky little sneaker system for a narrow band along the I-95

I admit I've been sleeping on this (spent too much time drinking and not enough looking at the models this weekend. The drinking part is ok but it really should be done responsibly which is to say in conjunction with keeping an eye on the models).

This now has my attention.

NAM is aggressive on this. Which I like, because I've found the NAM to handle storms pretty good this winter.

If we could get that Saturday storm bumped to the east we might have two shots at snow this week.

Saturday is about the SE ridge as it has been since beginning of February.  It's a nice PNA as shown on the GEFS so i do think a sig storm will develop.  But this is unconventional for sig snow for these parts.  I'd much rather have -NAO more westward beating down that ridge and forcing the storm underneath us than rely on the east based TPV which failed to do this in several times in February. It just doesn't seem to get the job done.  I think this weekend isn't much white unfortunately.  Also keep in mind GEFS is the best look for snow out of all major guidance ATM.

12z Euro on board now for Wednesday snow. Not as aggressive with snow as the NAM, but much more robust than its last run. Pops the Low off the Delmarva late Wednesday afternoon and evening. Shows about a 3-5" snowfall for most of North Jersey, NYC metro and Long Island. I imagine accumulation would depend on rates because surface temps during the day are mid to upper-30s, but upper air stays plenty cold enough for snow. Snow duration on Euro is from about 10 a.m. until after midnight Wednesday into Thursday.

Location location location. If you end up under the heavier precip you will accumulate, if not then white rain or very low ratio, 4-6:1 on non paved surfaces

Exactly. We see this often with March, April and November storms. Have to get heavy snow to overcome the warm surface. But we know it does happen from time to time.

Upton Disco
Embedded mid level shortwaves along with isentropic lift ensues quickly Wednesday
morning as low pressure emanating out of Lower Appalachia races
quickly northeast. With high pressure retreating northeast look
for precip to become a bit steadier into the mid and late
morning. It should continue through the afternoon. Look for snow
at the very onset, but as temperatures warm slightly with a
higher sun angle this time of year and a light onshore flow gets
going look for wet snow to go to a wintry mix. Temperatures
profiles are very close in the PBL for frozen versus liquid, so
even if a wintry mix and rain does end up being more in the form
of snow it would be difficult for it to accumulate with the
ground being warmer from the latest round of warmer weather.
Also, the precip likely does not get very intense as this storm
system will not intensify much and appears to lack the dynamics
to generate enough dynamic cooling down to the surface to make
it a more frozen type event across the city and the coast. Thus
the current thinking has snowfall totals in the light coating to
an inch range, although inland spots may get a bit more if
steadier precip for a longer duration gets into far northern
zones. This is something to keep an eye on in subsequent
forecast cycles.
