As the parade of storms continues, we now focus our attention to the weekend. After lake cutters and Appalachian runners, we finally have "our" storm for the central NJ area. This weekend we will see our first chance at measurable snow since early November. There are still some questions regarding the storm with its track, intensity and redevelopment. We will have a low pressure following a similar track as this past storm through the Gulf States but will then redevelop off the southeast coast, much further south than the previous storm. This further south redevelopment will allow for cold air to remain entrenched over us, and keep us as snow. The questions will be the same as they always are. How fast does the storm travel, how fast and intense can it become once it redevelops.
As of now, the EURO model has a solid hit, GFS is a glancing blow and the NAM is further east (snow shower maybe). As of now, having the EURO on our side is a major plus. Updates will be coming for this storm 4 times a day as the model runs come out. They will not always be posted on my blog, so please follow on twitter (@townerswxpage) and on facebook Towner's Weather PAGE.
This is finally a storm we can get excited about and track!
