Not to sound dumb, but what exactly does the negative trough mean? Is that thr jet bending back west?

For those of you wondering where the back edge of precip, at the least on radar, should be when it gets up here, check the image below. The pink line respresents my best guess based on the water vapor as to the max extent of the shield. Frank, remember that vorticity streamer I mentioned in the answer to your question? If you look, I'll bet you it's just west of that line. Pretty cool to match models to obs.

Whether it's virga or not is a different story, though.

Negative tilt vs neutral vs positive tilt.

I'd be screaming and crying if I was back in Binghamton right now. That would remind be of the Jan 2016 blizzard that I had to leave to go back to Bing the day before and it was sunny in Bing while at home, they got crushed lol

Last few frames of hi-res WV imagery show that we are really backing our flow on the downstream side of our trough now. In other words, it's beginning to ball up at the mid-levels and change the steering flow now to more of a SSE flow rather than S. Watch the explosion of precip over the next few hours lol gonna be AWESOME!!!

Right now the only place I see this being a Godzilla is MAYBE the eastern edge of Long Island. This seems to me to be a solid 6-12" Mothrazilla for most of the area with the back end of the 6" along I-287 and the NJ Turnpike and increasing as you go east to 12" on LI. West of that in NJ is probably 3-6" and PA 1-2".

Just looking at thickness contours I think this may bring back whispers 06z runs lol way more amped with the trough, much more negative and tucked in low.

18z NAM seems to be underdoing the precipitation field through 9 compared to what I'm actually seeing on radar right now.

The differences with the jet are unreal. Verbatim, it should be snowing all the way back to I-81 and accumulating. Shifted the jet axis 200 miles west. You can see it tries to correct a couple frames of the QPF and then loses it; that to me should be real looking at the upper levels.
