FOR MEMBERS WHO DID NOT / DO NOT WISH TO REGISTER:

If you're NOT a registered member, I made this room public so all you have to do is click the link below, enter your NJ Strong user name, and that's it. However, this may be a temporary feature that's why I encourage everyone to register. I can add you to my invite list if you're registered which gives me the ability to email you or ping you when a chat takes place. It's also for security reasons why I prefer using private instead of public rooms. But I'll keep it public tonight unless we run into issues.

Here is the link to tonight's chat for non registered members. For those registered follow the steps above. Let me know NOW if you're unable to find the room. I don't want to scramble later on.

Ryan, you have 6-10" in Binghamton. NWS thinks less than an inch here haha

Model scorecards:

NAM: 6-10"
Hi Res NAM: 8-12"
RGEM: 8-12" / 15-20" LI
SREFS: 8-12"
GFS: 8-12 / 12"+ LI
GEM-LAM: 8-12", 12"+ NYC to LI

Given the short duration of this event (as currently projected) if these totals verify (which are all pretty significant, even the NAM at the low end -- if you can call 6-10 "low") I'd say there is a good chance of someone getting some thundersnow out of this because those would be intense rates.

Wait, 700mb VV's on the GFS of all models are maxed out. I have NEVER seen this before.



That would mean INSANE snowfall rates.

CMC running!!

is that coming northe the blue? Like how insane?

Does the VV essentially measure the intensity of the precipitation?

Again, I think the globals are struggling with this one, especially if the jets verify like the short-range models show. Question: Did you ever see the explanation of that graphic you asked me for? Second question: Where did you get said graphic from? It's sweet!!!! lol

Frank Any mixing issues?
