Winter Storm Remains on Schedule For Interior Northeast
Good morning everyone and happy Saturday! Over the past few days, both the GFS and Euro weather models have done a very good job depicting the first possible winter storm of the season, and they continue to hold onto this idea. While NYC itself will see little to no frozen precipitation, interior parts of the Northeast and New England could see a decent thumping of heavy wet snow on Tuesday/Wednesday. Check out the latest below….
SATELLITE
For today, we have another sunny & chilly one, but at least the winds calm down. Look for highs in the low to mid 40’s. Clouds increase overnight and gusty southerlies return. We’ll have on and off rain tomorrow with highs in the upper 40’s to near 50.
WEATHER RADAR
Chilly air moves in behind tomorrow’s system as it stalls along the Gulf, combining with a disturbance coming out of the Rockies. This look like a class setup, but we’ll be dealing with a warm Gulf low and not enough cold air to work with (at least for the NYC area). We’ll see sunshine on Monday with chilly conditions near 40; then lows in the upper 20’s to low 30’s overnight.
Clouds increase overnight Monday with the chance of cold rain by Tuesday late morning/early afternoon. Don’t be surprised if you see some wet flakes mixed in for the onset, but it looks to be mostly a blustery cold rain for coastal sections. To complicate things a bit, the GFS and Euro remain in contention with each other over the robustness of our system. GFS shows a fast-moving overrunning type scenario, whereas the Euro shows a deeper low and a more classic coastal storm.
Either way, it looks as if interior parts of the Northeast and New England could see a quick dumping of 6-12″ of heavy wet snow. If the Euro plays out in its own fashion, we could see those numbers rise into the 8-14″+ category in areas that see all snow. We could also see some departing mix or wet flakes in NYC if the low is more intense.
We have a long way to go on this in terms of establishing rain/snow lines and final intensity, so stay tuned!
