JAN 6th-7th Storm Part II

Re: JAN 6th-7th Storm Part II
Allentown, PA: 7-11”
Northeastern PA (generally speaking north and west of Rt. 209): 11-17”
Now, we can generally extrapolate those boundaries for a rough idea for the rest of the area….
Dark blue: 11” contour
Medium blue: 7” contour
Light blue: 3” contour
Again, this is only a rough approximation because I haven’t been able to do a full analysis. But at least it gives a very broad demonstration of what I’m thinking.

Re: JAN 6th-7th Storm Part II
Anything less than 5 inches will be a huge disappointment, 8 inches about expected and will be satisfied, 10 inches or more a winner and over performer, at least in my eyes, I know RB has been predicting that for a week or more now.
22.6° after a morning low of 18.2°
Of course the mood will be very different on Tuesday when whatever falls washes away but all you can do is enjoy the moment, if it happens.

We’re making progress, folks! The dam that was built to internalize winter enthusiasm is slowly cracking

Re: JAN 6th-7th Storm Part II
The last minute SE Jog as I said in east coast storms is at play.
Lastly we had the CAD signature that the models will start to pick up on and radar watching kicks in soon ~ 3 hours before storm starts.
The backend band is there folks and its real - looks to be ending ariund 2-3PM now after a lull
The GIF won't load - argghhhh!!

It is off a bit in NJ and Long Island (roughly 20 miles), but it matched quite well by Philly. That’s why I said it’s as close as you can get to our ideas without it actually showing our ideas haha
See my approximated map for a little more clarification of my thoughts lol

I’m completely with you. Our ideas have gotten us this far after seemingly trending towards complete despair. A 20-30 mile difference with the track/transition zone is not nearly enough for me to abandon them now. We’re at 1-yard line. If we fumble now, well, at least we can salvage a field goal and say that we had a much better clue than the models did up until game time, and we only missed by a little with a fairly high skill score (especially considering the lead time we out our thoughts out there). Although it’s never good to leave points on the field, at least we put points on the board, and that’s gotta count for something haha

I agree for here in a similar position (70 ish mile drive to manhatten) in Southern Dutchess. Only difference is about 95 percent of the time you get a couple inches more then me nased on topography and the snow hole i live in.

7 inches for Nutley NJ!?!? Well, I hope you’re right. Eitherway, thank you so much spending time watching the storm. I enjoy reading them.

As a football coach I can say, it's not always a good idea to leave the game up to the kickers.

I agree with that in most instances, but if you miss a field goal when a kicker is that close, I think you need a new kicker hahaha
