Stevo6899 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 NAM is junk. It is already undermodeling the strength of the surface low. Toss it. Why are AFD's using it as a reference then? Aren't they smart enough to realize the issues it's having? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHSnow Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Somebody should make an official Twitter page for this storm and post updates of what is going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Really great past hour at MSN, .05" new liquid, bringing the storm total to 0.17". Many more hours of snow to go, will be taking a walk in a few hours when I finish a presentation on hurricane Wilma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just got home. Was excited to be back on the good side of the 1" line per the 0z NAM, but once I looped the run I could tell it was garbage. It tries to correct itself after 24 hours but I think the damage is done.

Oceanstwx is here though--and it doesn't sound like they made much use of it here. I can say that the last two shifts haven't made much use of it. We've been favoring the closed 500 low in MO, which is not the NAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeastFromTheEast Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Lol DT is going crazy on Skilling's FB page... "0Z NAM SHFITS HEAVIEST SNOW SOUTH... ORD gets a lot LESS than MDW... heaviest snows STL which earlier looked like Tons of sleet nows sees 12" of snow Champaign and Decatur into Danville and Kankakee sees 20"+..." "ANYONE who posts at accu Blunder is Moron. Period. They are all out of contriol weenies Mongerers and JB worshippers. On Jan 26 the last Big east snwostorm... which Model showed the HUGE afternoon explosion of snow over DCA BWI PHL NJ NYC CT? Yes the Nam 24 hrs ...before the event !" And then he gets owned "lol. and guess what model is discounted by the HPC. yep, you got it, the NAM. phase shift error ftl right? i suppose you mean that im a moron by the fact that im on the forums, but its sad to see that the real moron here is the one going against the grain of almost all forecast models and a general consensus to pick the outlier. go figure. " "@DT...it's so funny to see you coming into other met's FB page and posting stuff that you ban people from your WXrisk.com FB page all the time."

Baum Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 LOT update: A QUICK LOOK AT THE NEW 00Z RUN OF THE NAM SHOWS NO REAL SURPRISES AND CONTINUES TO BE SLIGHTLY EAST OF THE EARLIER GFS/ECMWF/SREF RUNS. BUT EVEN THIS SLIGHTLY MORE EASTERLY TRACK WOULD ONLY SHIFT THE SWATH OF HEAVIEST SNOW SLIGHTLY SOUTH...AND THE ENTIRE AREA WOULD STILL SEE TOTAL SNOWFALL IN EXCESS IN EXCESS OF 1 FOOT WITH A SWATH OF SNOW IN EXCESS OF 20 INCHES...INCLUDING 20+ INCHES OVER DOWNTOWN CHICAGO AND THE NEARBY LAKEFRONT LOCATIONS.

Organizing Low Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Kind of a novice here. what does this mean the storm isnt getting shunted as much by the PV, the PV is trying to get more cooperative and in doing so the h7 low stays better defined and hangs back a bit longer, as does the h5 trough. the occlusion is the issue though, that is true. dryslot also could become an issue. lol, now that i think about it, i guess you can only get so much out of this storm.....i suppose just be happy with what you get.
