CheesyPoofs Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 It's better to have loved and lost... More like loved, lost, loved again, and lost again -- the Euro HECS runs all week, then the Euro flip towards the GFS, then the sudden Christmas Eve/Christmas morning miracle model shift, then...nothing.

Deck Pic Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Euro is a decent snow to rain event Christmas morning into Christmas day....there is nothing to keep the high from sliding to the east..but a lot of the precip falls before the changeover and NW burbs might not change over at all before it shuts off....verbatim, I think this would be a 1-3" event for FFX/MOCO....and maybe given the pattern this is the best we can hope for, so we should root for it if it keeps being advertised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 from the New England forum....so keep that context in mind....he was referring to how the GFS phases so it's warmer and quicker and the Euro does not HM, on 20 December 2011 - 01:35 AM, said: And there you have just that on the ECMWF. The southern s/w doesn't quite phase and instead slingshots northeastward. Beautiful CAD / high pressure too. If this "almost a phase" scenario pans out, I would probably speed the solution up 6-12 hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that, verbatim, it looks like a 1-4" event for the DC/central MD area. This is more likely to be right than the more phased wrapped up GFS solution. However, we are walking a very fine line here and I'm not sure I like being in this spot 5-6 days out. At least it shows what is possible in this time frame. Better get this shot in now because it looks like the first half of January will be dull around here. When the rubber band really snaps in mid-later January, I think we will make up for some lost time. MDstorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 GFS has totally changed its solution for the 23-26th period from yesterday. Euro, by comparison, has been fairly consistent. Euro ensembles seem to generally support the Op's solution as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
