Indystorm Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Well, when you now have a tor watch for this evening in central Mississippi with temps there at 70 and dews in the 50's I can only expect the snow side of the storm to be intense and exciting as well per moisture and dynamics.

turtlehurricane Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 MSN officially has snow mixing with rain in their 4 pm ob. About 50/50 now with the temp at 1.2 °C on top of the met building. 0.14" of rain in the past hour, snow rates are about to be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned this last winter on the old message board, but studies have shown that it depends on the orientation of the convection. The convection can create an internal potential vorticity anomaly (which induces a counter-clockwise circulation in the atmosphere). If the convection is oriented north-south, that can increase the moisture transport by way of strengthening in the LLJ. If the convection is more southwest-northeast in nature, that can shunt the moisture away from the def zone/trowal features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Almost all snow in downtown Madison, not surprising with the temp being 1.0 °C on top of the met building. Heavy band of snow associated with edge of dry slot is about to come in, but I have a feeling we're in the perfect spot to stay out of the dry slot but in the best snow. We shall see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
