  1. Almost reminds me of lake effect snow showers in Pittsburgh. At least you can get decent squalls with that, but it amazes me how any given January day, there's a high chance of seeing light snow showers. Kinda takes the fun out snow.
  2. Sounding that does not inspire confidence (although much improved a few hours later). We'll see hours upon hours of flizzard conditions, with a 3-6 hour window for light to moderate accumulations
  3. GFS very similar to last run. A light to moderate snowstorm for most of the sub
  4. RGEM looks much like the 0z Euro. More suppressed than last run
  5. It's still perhaps closer to a good outcome than it appears. Small changes yield big changes in results. We really need that initial northern energy to die out so the energy in Texas can amplify
  6. Don't think the NAM will be a good run for NW areas, but we shall see. Seems to be keying in more on the first piece of energy, which doesn't get the job done
  7. It's going to be painful for those on the N and W fringes watching the precip run into a wall of dry air for hours and hours
  8. The snow in WV/Northern VA a separate wave on the back end of the initial frontal passage
  9. Better than expected. Many would take this in a heartbeat (although note that the fringes will shrink with time as the forecast gets nailed down)
  10. Seems to me a step in the right direction for the NW gang. Moves a bit towards the idea of the low continuing to develop as it progresses east
  11. Struggling to take seriously a model that spits out this:
  12. Yeah, I feel like the hr 84 NAM tends to be like... "Hey look! A storm!", When sometimes suppression makes more sense
  13. Delayed, but still gets the job done. Lots of ice for coastal areas
  14. I'm definitely worried the phase will just keep getting delayed and it will only be a storm for Wilmington to VA beach
  15. Definitely more east, but still fairly amped. Supports the continued idea of a big hit for the coastal plain
  16. Maybe 80% chance of happening. Storm isn't really supposed to get going until mid-day, even for the more amped solutions
  17. I won't post for fear of confusion, but the Canadian drops one heckuva weenie run in a storm on the 27th
  18. Lol, the triad went from 12" to 2" of snow on the UKMET. Definitely supports the idea not only of more suppressed, but also for significant coastal impacts
  19. Seems like Rocky Mount may end up doing better than the Triad. I have a feeling that although we will have long duration and less mixing issues, dry air may reduce the max potential from playing out
  20. Ok so far we've got Euro and NAM in the amped camp; GFS, icon and RGEM in the suppressed camp, and UKMET and CMC somewhere in between
  21. The 12z GFS will be huge. Whichever direction it moves will be a big indicator of which way things are trending. I will say, I wouldn't worry too much about one run of the Euro. If nothing else, it largely rules out the possibility of over-amplification.
