jdt Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 does the low closing off at 500 mean that the progression of the storm will be any slower? In this case probably not as the 500 low will keep progessing too but it should keep the SLP from escaping to far east early on. That is capture it keeping it further west prior to the whole thing progressing off to the NE. Still moves through pretty quickly. Closed 500 will help dynamically also.

Guest Patrick Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 No... The upper level low is about to hit the coast... as soon as that happens, you see the *boom* from green to blue on radar... no worries. Everything on track for a Small-dog-smashing-plastering. Any concern that the first push of heavy precip into NYC will be rain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha5 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 No dude... actual obs down there of up to 4" per hour... insane, just insane.... Really? Wow impressive...I was looking at the SPC meso analysis page and it looked like 850's and 925's were over 0c but upon further inspection.....you're right their getting buried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdt Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Bright banding probably... Good sign, most models and SREF members opened it back up a bit later as the vort moves northeastward...if it stays closed off and more organized were in great shape Yes it will be interesting to see if it remains closed or opens open again in a few hours.

NorthShoreWx Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hasn't been above 29 here all day and im on long island. Currently 27.5 I think you need to calibrate your thermometer. Stick the sensor in ice water sometime. I'll bet it reads around 28 - 29. Then you'll know your adjustment (at least at around the freezing point...I doubt the digital therm inaccuracies are 100% linear). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrick Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Perhaps the RUC showing 6" per hour in our neck of the woods tonight may actually verify, based on obs... Really?

RU848789 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Getting really dark and windy. that's what happens at night Beat me to it, lol. Reminds me of George Carlin's old bit as the Hippy Dippy Weather Man: tonight's forecast - dark, continued dark, until the morning, when there will be widespread light... By the way - anyone know why this site doesn't support replying to multiple posts in a thread format (i.e., why can't I reply to Snow88 and Jason with one click replying to their 2 posts in sequence, making a 3-post sequence and so on?)?

You won't see 6 inches in 1 hour if you lived for the next hundred years. Name one synoptic storm on the east coast that has produced 6 inch an hour rates. If you can, i'd love to see it. The heaviest I can recall is Feb. 83 that had a couple 5 inch an hour reports in a corridor from Harrisburg Pa to Allentown. Never heard of 6 inches and it won't happen tonight.

Guest Patrick Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I was not inferring that it has ever happened before IMBY, or I have ever witnessed it. The RUC showed 6 inches in one hour somewhere in the metro tonight. We all had a good chuckle when we saw it. But when 4" per hour obs are coming in to our south/southwest, and the best dynamics are progged to be over us over the next few hours, it does make it a little less laughable. Outside of LES, or the Sierra, I have never heard of it either. You won't see 6 inches in 1 hour if you lived for the next hundred years.
