yoda Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I'll say this, through 18 hrs I can't believe how cold the 850's are at -4C at DCA/BWI that's pretty impressive I was actually about to post that for hr 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 21 hrs on the NAM it's popping a slp on southern AL/GA border that wasn't showing up at 27 hrs on the 18Z run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I was thinking about the Palm Sunday storm in late March....I think 1942....just because it was so late and it dumped a lot of snow.... Good call. Yeah at the end of March. I am surprised it isnt in Kocin's book but found this on the storm http://www.erh.noaa.gov/lwx/winter/DC-Winters.htm March 29-30, 1942: The Palm Sunday Snowstorm was another seasonal late comer. Baltimore received its greatest snow in 20 years with 22 inches measured. Washington recorded 12 inches. Hagerstown recorded 22 inches in 24 hours.

yoda Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 the 0 line at 21 hrs is along the VA/NC border are we certain these aren't maps from 12/09? Still there at 27. -3c 850 line is around RIC, perhaps slightly north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore received its greatest snow in 20 years with 22 inches measured. Washington recorded 12 inches. Hagerstown recorded 22 inches in 24 hours. It definitely is in Kocin's book--- see Volume I. This is one of DC's most famous snowstorms, with more than a foot in higher elevations in the city proper and 25-30+" amounts from northern MD into State College, PA... inverted trough, with PHL and NYC getting almost all rain.

Amped Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 H7 Small closed low over SW PA at 36hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 it almost looks like the low wants to pull ENE and not up the coast based on maps up through 36 hrs, but I guess once the 5H vort catches it, that would change (if it catches it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I don't really care if it rains. It is just nice to have something to track that doesn't include 24 degree 850 temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 The surface low at 36 hrs is farther off the coast so unless it redevelops closer to the 850 low, this run probably will not be as wet as the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the globals are to be believed as far as temps and the over-amplification, would a track farther offshore be somewhat beneficial in keeping the 540 line somewhat more supressed?
