Ian Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 There could be some flakes at first maybe.. i have not looked at soundings. the maps look quite marginal especially at the surface, plus it will be during the day. so any mangled rainflake wouldnt do much most likely.

Ji Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 remember how well the models did with surface temps on sunday a few days out. the surface temps being cold were dependent on heavier qpf which never happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 60-66 850s nice.. but surface will probably be in the mid 30s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 the surface temps being cold were dependent on heavier qpf which never happened to a point though they were probably still cold by a factor of 5 degrees or so given what places south saw for highs that did not get much sun.

Ji Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Other than the obvious..not sure what to make of the GFS its april. we need this to fall at night and be very heavy for us to get to that magical inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 60-66 850s nice.. but surface will probably be in the mid 30s looks like rain dc/balt.. maybe some flakes to end. we need 110% of things to come together right here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod/analysis/namer/gfs/12/images/gfs_p24_078l.gif Pretty sure this will be a cold rain... but 850 low goes east of us at 60 and 66 -- http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod/analysis/namer/gfs/12/images/gfs_850_066l.gif and the 540 isotherm parallels I-95 or just slightly east at 66 -- http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/nwprod/analysis/namer/gfs/12/images/gfs_slp_066l.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 looks like rain dc/balt.. maybe some flakes to end. we need 110% of things to come together right here. surface temps are about 32.5 to 33 during the height of the storm. I think we will see flakes fall during the heavy parts of the storm even in DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoVaSnow Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'd rather it didn't snow. Snow or no snow, all I ask is that we be precipitation free between 6:00 am and 5:00 pm Thursday. Is this asking too much? Opening Day at Nats Park will be so much more enjoyable if it's dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
