Latest Snow Totals

The 12z GFS is in and it essentially "cancels" the storm for the NY area and points east/north giving only a few inches. It keeps the blizzard across the Philly area including southern NJ, Maryland, Washington DC, Delaware and Virginia. They would all see one to two feet of wind driven snow based on this model. Look on the map to see what it projects for your area. Next up will be the Canadian model.

You left out the end where they say that this is only ONE model and not an actual forecast. Not really the "latest" snow totals.

The picture is a MODEL not a forecast. And because everything on Facebook is true! Chat Icon


Why are weather MODELS so inaccurate?

Nope not everything on FB is real but many people trust Tri-State Weather and they are usually the most accurate.

I think I heard many people on here rely on it too.

Ah yes, Mr. Meatball Man.

At least he tells everyone "This is just a MODEL and not a FORECAST if you don't understand what a MODEL is then don't read this post."

Re: Latest Snow Totals

Latest from Rich Hofmman

So far - the latest models - shifting heavy snow south of Long Island - I will have a big write up this afternoon once the EWCMF comes out. http://longisland.news12.com/weather/ - I adjusted the forecast a bit. I mentioned this a few times - I think the coastal flooding will be worse than the snowfall. We are on the northern edge - away from the BIG energy.

The NOAA Maps are still showing 8-12 for most of LI. I have been using the maps for years and they are always spot on and they don't give the TC weatherman lets hype everything up and make people crazy

Yep I always go by them. Rich Hoffman says he will be fixing his predictions this afternoon so waiting on all of these to see what is going on.
I think they are seeing that the storm might be staying to the south of us. Cross your fingers but then they could say that and we wake up to 2 feet lol

Another thing I read on Rich's FB page today was a blizzard doesn't necessary mean the amount of snow, it's the blowing conditions.
So you could get LESS snow totals with a blizzard, but it will be more windy and create white out conditions, etc

Re: Latest Snow Totals

Latest update from Tri-State Weather on FB:



Afternoon model discussion: With the exception of the NAM model, all other 12z models including the euro have shifted the focus and core of the blizzard to southern New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Washington DC, Delaware and Virginia with a general one to two feet of snow in that region. Any points north like Long Island and NYC would see around 6 inches and points further north into New England, an inch or two. The cold high pressure to the north is suppressing the storm south on the current model guidance. Now, we still have 48 hours to go and as we all know, a small 50 mile shift will once again bring the NY area into the main part of the blizzard. Coastal flooding is still a big concern for the NJ coast and Long Island. Let's see how the storm evolves and what the latest guidance shows this evening and tonight. As always stay with us for all the latest. Scroll the page for individual model maps.
