40/70 Benchmark Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I just want some mood flakes out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I just want some mood flakes out of this. The weenie flakes have seemed to stop here. Radar still looks good out to the west but we'll want to see ALB report some decent obs at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 looks like im about to get into the first moderate snows of the day momentarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSnowman Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 So let me get this straight - The radar has snow......I have snow.....the NAM at 18z has basically NO Storm. Soooooooooooooooooo What's up with dat shiz? Esp. with 00z having 3-6 solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 RUC composite has good dynamics, 35-40dbz over coastal CT dwindling to 5-10 up by Kev. Does do a hooker job later so it's a squeaker for the Cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 How would the convection to the west affect the model runs or would it not at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 BAF down to 3/4 -SN...so at least somewhere is getting a steady snow capable of accumulating. That might bode well for later if that stuff from NYS gets in here...saturate the column ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Relying on dying convection for snow is never a good bet lol Could be picking up on that or it may finally be bumping north because it's picking up on the convection.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesun Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I got about 3/4 mile here now. Just starting to whiten the grass 33/28. Radar immediately up stream looks rather choppy, though. Not sure how long I'm going to hold on to this. BAF down to 3/4 -SN...so at least somewhere is getting a steady snow capable of accumulating. That might bode well for later if that stuff from NYS gets in here...saturate the column ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Torchey Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 absolutely dumping ip and snow grains, has begun to stick instantly, exactly the coating we need to accumulate snow on top, temp is down to 32.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 RUC goes to down here tonight developing a comma head kind of in place. It's a squeaker...but If correct Phil will be winning like Charlie Sheen after midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Man the south shore of Lake Ontario has been getting crushed the past several hours. That's gotta be some fun caking snows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 nice silver dollar flakes cant wait to see if those thunderstorms run into the colder air up this way..........maybe a narrow band of S++ around the nyc metro, long island, south coast.

I was always under the assumption that forecast radar was one of the least reliable model tools... sort of like TV station's simulcast stuff... is that true? why don't we look at omega instead of some projected picture of what the radar might look like?

Because that's easier? The best omega is displaced just SE of that but there's more at play than just that. There's lower level forcing involved too, so that's a good representation of the cumulative change between the runs. It's not a forecast tool and I thought that was pretty well understood. When 2-3 hours ago that shield was 75 miles SE and it's now come NW....we can surmize the associated dynamics also shifted. I'm working on a limited storage capacity of 40mb, by all means use some of your allocation to post those images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
