Just wanted to update my blog with the details of the 0Z and 12Z Model runs.  All have backed off the GUNG HO 18Z GFS snow from yesterday. 

The forecast looks to be very warm today and into tommorow with a cold front pushng through tommorow afternoon, this will bring some rain and perhaps some strong storms to the area tommorow afternoon.   As the colder air tries to spill in another wave of Low Pressure forms off the coast and rides the front. 

The 12 Z Model Runs today are bothe consistent showing the cold air never really getting in place in Metro Philly to be SNOW.  The NAM does show some light back end snow, he GFS does not.  Looks like a good Rain Storm in Philly. 

However if you live in the Poconos, Lehigh Valley, NYC, Berks County West this bears watching.  That is where I see the rain snow border setting up with this storm.

I think chances of accumulationg Snow in Philadelphia Metro are around 10%. 

Why?

1)  Temperatures today will push 75 in the metro area and without a cold surface the snow will have a very hard time accumulating even if it snows!

2)  If this happens it MUST be at night, if it is during the day FORGET ABOUT IT! 

We shall see but one thing for sure we have a cold weekend ahead!!!!

FIVE DAYS TILL I AM IN CLEARWATER WITH THE PHILLIES!!!
