Sun/Monday March 3rd-4th 2019 Storm

Very good run on the EURO actually. Big area of 6-10" for Northern and even some of Central Jersey. Parts of LI and LHV as well

You see that SENJ? Winter storm warning for Ocean county. 2-4 inches. I don't know how true that holds for us coastal ocean folks but the alert was a surprise.

I wouldn't be surprised if here in northern ocean county gets more than 2-4

18z EURO, nice shift SE

Larry, winter storm warning or watch?

You may be right. Northern ocean and Monmouth could do well. I'm still concerned about temps further south and east

Irish, sorry. Watch not warning.

Irish, you could have a decent storm in cnj

Ok, yeah, i'm wondering if it turns into an advisory or warning from here.

I'm hoping Larry cause we've gotten squat this year. 6 inches would be great. I just hope things don't swing the other way and we end up with 1 sloppy inch.

Like I said I'm still concerned about temps. Barnegat only gets down to 34. I still like North and Northwest of me to get something decent. Irish, I think your do.

Not a banner start to your time on the forum Irish, huh?

I haven't had a chance to look in depth at the longer write ups by Frank, sroc, mugs etc..., but here is what I think is a safe bet at 24 hrs out from a south Jersey perspective:

Good likelihood of a bonafide winter storm from I-195 north (thru the LHV)
Decent shot for a moderate event in south Jersey, which is the best we can realistically hope for this time of year.
A real potential for banding, anywhere in striking distance of the low.
Trend has been, and if I'm right, continues to be, south and east, right towards us.

24 hrs later...? Does the trend continue? Or stop? Or reverse? Or does the storm weaken? Or strengthen?

And all of this comes with a really strong bust potential due to track and temps...which is ALWAYS the case. There's no way to avoid the uncertainty and we may very well get a no snow solution.

All in all, I L-O-V-E our spot right now...we in the game!!  And we are just off bulls-eye at a really swell time (shhhh.... )

Yeah SENJ, i feel as though me joining this forum has brought the bad juju (and not Smith-Schuster), LoL. I'll take full blame for this winter not the mpo, or epo, OPP, NRA, nato, or naacp, just me.

0z NAM better than 18z, still think it's a tad warm, but we'll see. I guess it's possible if the precip is rather light toward the end of the storm, there could be a transition to light rain near NYC and SE

0Z NAM juicier precipitation but precipitation shield looks weird to me. I like the strengthening system 989 right to BM. I think it’s not figured it out quite yet but improved.

Nam is colder

That track and intensity I wouldn’t worry on temps too much.

NAM is less snow and further south, doesn't look ood to me, am I missing something? Now central to south jersey is the jackpot.

Exactly

It breaks the precipitation up sharply as it approaches the BM while it’s intensifying. I would think that not case.

Yeah it does its a bit concerning each run has had less and less snow, and now even rain getting into NYC area at the end. Less than 24 hrs out and we do not know whats going to happen, you would think technology would be better than that.

If you look at 0z NAM at about 4 am, it is winding up off the coast, but very little precip wrapping around on the backside. Normally this is where we’d get good snows across NJ and NYC. That’s why the NAM shuts off the precip earlier. Not sure that is right.

Weird that the snow picks up in intensity with the Low to our south, but as it slides to our east there isnt much on the backside and it just ends. That is the difference between a 4 or 5” event and a 9 or 10” event.

Agreed. We get to 10 with some dynamics. Don’t think WAA alone will be enough. My opinion anyway.

Rgem

I like that map, the dead center of that bullseye is my area! Bring it!

Rgem has been very consistent with the I-95 bullseye and pretty strong dynamics, something missing from the Nam
