Summary

  • GFS/GEFs models were consistent with low pressure location along the New Jersey coast, but trended stronger as the event approached.
  • The NAM was too far west in early runs, then trended toward the GFS.
  • Historical analogs based on earlier, weaker GFS runs indicated the best potential for heavy snow would be northeast of our area.
  • SREF plumes indicated too much liquid precipitation at BGM, possibly due to influence of warmer 32-35 km WRF/Eta solutions.
