Ian Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The NAM wins again. The NAM has won all season long. the nam's higher resolution wins on sharp cutoffs. being in/near the sharp cutoff is dangerous. being south of d.c. and outside a localized band is dangerous. late march is dangerous. there was so much stacked against this one any flakes were a win.

Huffwx Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The NAM wins again. The NAM has won all season long. The NAM didn't really win-- maybe IYBY-- that's all. Got slaughtered down this way, as did the GFS and every other model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 And once again the NCEP models really had a tough go of it. Excuses have been made since our first snow about 12/20...and in every different pattern they've continued to stink most of the time. Hopefully they work it out pre 2011/12.

Hopefully they work it out pre 2011/12. yep, and the Euro was really bad this year vs. prior years down here I honestly think BWI would have had a 60"+ season is the Euro's 4 day forecasts were right (probably 75"+ based on 5 day forecasts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim_in_CA Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 What amazed me about this event is even though it's almost April, the jackpot still managed to be SOUTH of us - as it has all winter. Too far north for snow in late March sounds crazy, and yet, it's reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Looking at the record cold maxes IAD has seen a 35F on 3/24/71 and that was under -10.1C H85 temps. The amazing 7.6" at 18:1 ratios from 3/30/64 - 3/31/64 fell with H85 at -11.2C at 0Z on the 30th, -14.9C at 12Z on the 31st and -9.3C at 0Z on 4/1. The recorded highs were 37F and 39F. The coldest April high ever, 38F, resulted from a 12Z H85 temp of -10.1. It's gonna take a lot to make the GFS's 18Z temp of 29F verify with a 12Z H85 starting point of -7.8C. The EC's 36F under -10C u/l is probably more realistic. LOL. GFS surface temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
