Well they went with the colder 12z runs. Now with wind gusts up to 40 in the point n click forecast.
WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM TO 7 PM EST SATURDAY... * WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 4 to 7 inches. Winds gusting as high as 45 mph. * WHERE...Orange County. * WHEN...From 6 AM to 7 PM EST Saturday. * IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions.
Me neither, and just 1 inch above warning criteria for snowfall.
maybe they are going with the high end maps from this morning. They haven’t updated those maps as of yet.
They might, my thought is they keep the warning up and tomorrow morning they might scale it back if the short range models back off after looking at the 00z runs.
Hopefully there won’t be so much paste with the winds and cold temps. Bad recipe for tree and power issues. Overnight Saturday could be tough for some especially up our way.
Agree, and the WWA posted for Orange County is in that advisory criteria. Winter Storm Warning would be for 6”+ up this way.
It will be interesting too see what the 12z runs show coming up.
