Heavy Wet Snow Possible Inland Elevated Areas Friday Friday Night
Heavy Wet Snow Possible Inland Elevated Areas
Friday-Early Saturday
Numerous watches are now going up for various areas. Winter Storm Watch continues for much of Southern NY eastward to the Catskills and has now been expanded into Northeastern Pennsylvania. Flood Watch is posted for The Hudson Valley, Southeastern NY, Connecticut, Long Island and all of New Jersey except the extreme northwest.. High Wind Watch is posted for Coastal Connecticut southward into Delaware & Maryland including NYC, Long Island & New Jersey.
National Weather Service snow forecast maps are now updated after the latest round of weather model guidance. The NAM and the European model are the coldest of the bunch and would argue for the larger area experiencing a change over to snow. In fact the latest NAM is even faster doing this changing it to snow across much of the Northern half of New Jersey by Friday morning. This colder model trend continues today and will have to be watched very carefully for impact for coastal areas as well as inland. All of this hinges on the dynamic cooling that will be provided by the upper atmosphere. Look for these forecasts to change some more particularly if it becomes apparent that the NAM model has the right idea.
