Deck Pic Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 4kNAM has 0.25"+ for NW DC burbs...all models showing event now. Could be high ratio (hehe). Regular NAM has 0.06" for DCA, but more for Burbs....GFS has 0.10" for DCA....temps in low to mid 20s. 1-2"+ event possible? snow on snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Great setup for short but intense squall like snow. I'm so in. The worm has certainly turned for us. It's going to be awful tough to pin down progression until almost game time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Euro is like a 30 minute event Should be enough time for Westminster to get 2-4" It's a step up from 12z even here. I like this event. Solid snowcover in place. Stats padder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krasnyoktyabr Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The GFS definitely increased the precip for this event, and it just won't back down on that Thursday/Friday cold. After 18 years without 0* at Reagan it would be awesome to get two years in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 snow on snow on snow for some. Like the idea of at least an inch for some. Yes! I have 8" on the ground in most places now. Another half inch or snow to freshen it up would be nice But I am willing to share the wealth, I pretty much bullseyed on these 2 events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Wouldn't be hard to beat the last squall line that dropped a coating around here, but snow on snow would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanWxFreak Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Got 4.1 from the last squall event... This one will have tough expectations from me. Does the lack of milder air out ahead of the squall in this sitatuon take away from its potential juicyness? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Got 4.1 from the last squall event... This one will have tough expectations from me. Does the lack of milder air out ahead of the squall in this sitatuon take away from its potential juicyness? I'd say the relative temperature difference will somewhat atone for the lack of any true warmth relative to this time of year and last event (40's and 50's). It could be around 30-31 in front of the band and <15 behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 although GFS gives us snow, the best areas of lift are just to our north and south per 700mb RH map http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/Image.php?image=data%2Fgfs%2F12%2Fgfs_namer_036_700_rh_ht.gif&model=gfs&area=namer&storm=&cycle=12¶m=700_rh_ht&fhr=036&group=Model+Guidance&imageSize=L&preselected_formatted_cycle_date=20150217+12+UTC&ps=model&use_mins=no&scrollx=0&scrolly=81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance? not imho here's the RGEM's early thinking; remember, however, the RGEM caught that norlun feature that gave us all the snow Saturday, but not until Saturday!
