I am not a weather expert by any stretch. An artic front supposedly is coming through tomorrow, is it not strong enough to firmly entrench our area with cold air to keep it all snow? Wouldnt the storm be forced eastward by the arctic boundary and ride up along it instead of coming inland or hugging the coast?
Sure is easy to lose the faith when the models are stacked against us. Funny thing is...they were stacked against us a few days ago with the storm being suppressed. I think we should give the models more time since they cant handle anything more than 6 hours out.
Heh....and Gore wants me to believe his computer models are correct for global warming? Thats an inconvenient truth indeed.

I think the two issues are not the artic front but that the cold air will lose traction with a primary low that does not shift its energy to a coastal storm and a coast hugger in which east/northeast winds can move temps up quickly.... If this holds even NW NJ sees a changeover to at least a mixed bag...

Currently with model runs, the temperature is not the main concern. It is how close the Low comes to the coast. If the low stays as close to the coast as the 12z runs have show, it will likely be a major mixing event. If it moves out to the east slightly, it would likely be more of an all-snow event.
