Plenty of Model Snow Hype To Go Around

There's plenty of Forecast Model [JessePedia] hype to go around this morning on upcoming snowstorms... I present to you two snow accumulation maps, but I can't guarantee they are accurate.The WRF looks way too high for Thursday's storm...

And the DGEX looks way too low for Sunday... maybe these maps are incorrect, or maybe these models just aren't that good at predicting snowfall. We'll find out next week after the storms are over.

Switching to Snow Cover maps, the latest (12Z) NMM model is heavier than yesterday for Thursday's storm and is centering it in eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey with spots of over 8 inches.

The GFS is still loving the Sunday storm -- here's what the snowcover should look like by Wednesday, if you assume a 10:1 Snow Ratio [JessePedia] ratio, that would be over 18 inches in eastern PA.
