Coupled with 40mph winds those,areas tgat see .25 or more may see power issues too. .25 right imb according to tgat image. Wow .44 in nj yikes.

Changes are coming to my final snow map. Models are picking up on enhanced 700mb frontogensis and a prolonged period of northerly winds thanks to the surface low that will develop off the coast. I'll have it out in 47 minutes.

The formation of that secondary low could be robbing moisture for the northernmost suburbs and actually give coastal areas more snow. Rgem along with the hrrr seem to be hinting at this

Sorry all, I am running late and have to run out. I do not have time to explain the changes to my updated final call snow map. I remain very concerned about icing in interior northern NJ, eastern PA, and north of NYC. Everything I said in my first post of this thread still applies, just adjusting snow amounts. In the end, I am going back to what I had in my 1st call 2 nights ago. 4-8" N&W (I feel the lower end of this range will verify) and I moved the 2-4" zone south into NYC and NE NJ.

Heavy Snow as per HRRR and ice - jesus this is VERY BAD - circled area map I posted awhile ago is the area.

IMO NWS should put up WSW - Winter Storm Watches for areas in purple on Franks Map

I agree, I know our criteria is 6 inches or more for WSW but 4-6 combined with ice, they have the leeway to do it and probably should.

Post by Math23x7 Fri Dec 16, 2016 7:47 pm

Just over a year ago in the Banter thread, I put this up:

December 17th "Front-End Thump" Storm Discussion & Observations - Page 2 Souths10

I have experienced winter storms in which I changeover from snow a lot faster than areas just north of the black line I drew.  At this point, I remain a bit skeptical about the increased snow totals.  Maybe neighborhoods like Flushing, Bayside, Douglaston, or Great Neck will experience them, but not so sure for me.  

Also, I am not sure how I will manage my sleep schedule tonight.  I know I am usually asleep until at least 10 AM on Saturdays.  But I know that the snow could be over for me by the time it happens.  I may have to rely on surrounding snow totals to put in my own.  

I hope I do get the increased snow totals.  I'm just not getting my hopes up...

Oh boy, this may end up being a warning level event (any amount of frzr on top of snow is a warning event) as some have stated, but may be issued too late. Once NWS sees whats going on.

I know our main focus is the snow and ice but holy damn look at sundays 850mb winds (sustained!), I think gusts will exceed 60mph at one point possible, 100+ mph 850s wow.

Yep looking like a rather rare ice event for a large area, not sure how much of it gets in here north of NYC, the RGEM doesnt really show the pink there but NJ damn. Still going by what mugs and Frank said though that north of NYC, and that pivotal weather (where is that is it free? Ice map isn't joking.
