feb11th1983 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 bullseye I believe was 6z... 12z was out to sea. Euro has the storm at 12z... a slight compromise toward the gfs would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, late to the party today. It would be nice to have a shovelable event. Still light sleet in downtown, very light but still audible on the windows.

Brubert Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Sleet here too. Was pretty heavy for a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inudaw Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Despite what models have currently for the February 9th-11th threat. This storm still does not have much blocking to work with. It is an event dependent on what happens with the low that develops on the 8th and strengthens as it moves out into the ocean as well as how far the energy digs out west. We COULD see snow... but its not a classic set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inudaw Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 06z has this t hing way west... 18z now hit. The 18z before that was further south than this. Always fun to look at .. but never to take seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathervswife Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 This is the first day I've sunk my teeth into this one. I already proclaimed winter over, so crow might be on the plate. Right now the Canadian looks way west with rain, the Euro is a beautiful snowstorm for everyone, and the GFS is a flurry off to the SE. One thing for sure is all of the models moved SE, ie, the Euro is where the GFS was yesterday. That's a bit concerning as I don't feel the Euro has been any better than the GFS this year. We need to see the GFS bounce back west just a little at 0Z, and if not, hopefully the Euro isn't playing catchup. Did I miss anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(lol... its been pretty amped this year... for some reason.) The 12z JMA was a nice hit for this area... I'd like the Canadian to come in east tonight.... Euro to maybe drift a bit further east... (Like it's ensembles..) and the GFS to show a better low pressure system than it did at 18z... BUT still to the South-east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could care less what the models show today, so long as it snows Thursday, LOL... At the moment, I'd like a nice whiskey sour. I think I shall go prepare one.

RIC Airport Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Only 6 days! ;-p XD Yea plenty of time for this to go down the drain from where its at. Would be pretty impressive to hit 20" for 2 consecutive seasons at RIC. That doesn't happen very often. I'm also holding my breath. There is seldom a perfect solution for RIC....this may either move more the the SE or too far the the N bringing us the chance for a changeover. It's extremely difficult it seems to get anything over 12" at the official recording station. Given that its been so long, it would be funny if this thing ends up as a top 3 event...17.8" or higher.

RIC Airport Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Per Allan, the 00z Euro ensembles are more SE of the OP run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inudaw Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Per Allan, the 00z Euro ensembles are more SE of the OP run. I don't mind that.... Lol...I'd rather see them surpressed "a bit" Everyone was ready to write this one off as a an ohio valley storm 1.5 days ago. Now everyone is starting to worry about supression. We really won't know what will happen until we know how the storm exiting off the sea bored early in the week is going to do once out int he ocean. Major pattern indexes do not favor this area.... purely getting driven by short term locations between storms and incoming high pressure systems etc. I still fear the to far north west solution a bit more than the to far south solution at this time. And now are early morning dose of lol. Latest dgex.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowmiser Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 from DT... **** ALERT**** 0Z early Saturday. EURO keeps Feb 10 low supresed and flat.. 4th run in a row the European model is doing that. WHY? the euro is not the GFS..so this means something. Frankly the euro has most snow over SW central andveastern va since January 1996 Blizzard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure we will get screwed somehow. scary indeed how the euro keeps nailing us run after run. the chances for snow look great it's how much or how west does the low come to switch us over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 When is DT's next **ALERT** going to come out? Good luck to you guys. Sure...we'd prefer you guys mix a bit in order for us to get the most out of this, but I wouldn't be terribly unhappy if you guys got bullseyed and we were on the northern edge of the heavier stuff.
