ORH_wxman Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 why?....wasn't it a pretty straightforward event?...did the euro have it OTS?...I don't remember Pretty much..it had a scraper event...like advisory for the coast for almost every run except one I think. It way too far SE. One of the only KUs I remember where it really bit the big one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the only KUs I remember where it really bit the big one. I remember that. It never really caught on. The Gfs and Jma had the same solution locked from Wednesday till storm started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gfs and Jma had the same solution locked from Wednesday till storm started The JMA is probably going to have to be inducted into the HOF of models just because of how often it shows huge KU events...so every time it verifies, it looks good but everyone forgets all the times it showed it and it didn't happen. Its the equivalent of the pitcher in baseball who pitched in like 20 World Series game 7s and won 6 of them so he is amazing, but everyone forgets the time he lost the other 14. Obviously there is no such pitcher, but that is what the JMA would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if JMA does not have a big event...it's a good sign there won't be one period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Euro starts too late and is warm at surface . Plus dry for event. Euro says no again basically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 euro looks decent for Wednesday,,,,just way warm It's a terrible run...For the wed event. Poor timing and dry and warm at surface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 yeah...that's true...I just liked that it wasn't too far north We need the event to start 6 hours earlier plus we need it to be 09-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 you sure about timing...seems around 10-11am?....anyway.....it is crazy warm....you are right....Can we ignore that? Looks like it starts at around 1-2pm. I highly doubt it would be mid 40s at 10am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HM Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 it's been getting closer than any other models...even closer this run Yeah this run could nail New England. We'll see if it can get its act together quickly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 This run was a close one for New England to get bombed. I hope this "torch fail" ends up lasting a little longer than the January "torch fail" -WPO period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Have no idea why I'm still awake.....full moon maybe? Anyway, time for me to pay closer attention to the weekend. PV hasn't squashed anything all year. It's been modeled a few times but ends up being more relaxed in real time. Hmmmm... Not sure what to think yet.

ORH_wxman Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 The wave gets obliterated under the crushing PV. Interesting that is has that same wave as the GFS though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Interesting that is has that same wave as the GFS though. Yes. I suppose a slower ejection of the s/w and/or a faster retreat of the Arctic heights/PV would bring quite the different solution. Regardless of what the outcomes are, it is refreshing to see some potential, at the very least, within the next 10 days. This isn't the snowiest or coldest pattern by any means but it is definitely a major improvement from before (which goes without saying I guess).

North Balti Zen Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 That beautiful high in Quebec from the 0z run that allowed for that to be a snow solution on Valentine's day was replaced with an ugly L on the 6z run and a solution that is rainy down our way.

The difference is that the 00Z has a 50/50 low whereas the 06Z doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showmethesnow Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 The 06Z GFS has a parade of storms like yesterdays run but they are wet unstead of white. The PV placement is a good bit further north as well on this run versus yesterdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 The vort track on the 6z is better IMO for the Wed event. This remaining issue is the lack of precip. A bit drier than the 0z GFS and more like the euro. I'm not going to freak out that it loses the Vday one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 EC ensembles kind of look like the op regarding the HA deal everyone was talking about. Not nearly as classic looking as the GFS op was at 00z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 LWX discussion as of 4am .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... -- Changed Discussion -- A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL PASS THRU THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES ON WED. WHILE DYNAMICS AND MOISTURE WITH THIS SYSTEM ARE NOT ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE...UPPER DIVG IN LEFT-ENTRANCE REGION OF ULVL JET-STREAK AND DPVA AHEAD OF THE VORT MAX WILL PROVIDE SOME FORCING FOR LGT PRECIP ON WED. MODELS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH TIMING AND QPF. HAVE INCREASED POPS TO LIKELY ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA. PRECIP WILL LIKELY OVERSPREAD LOCATIONS NEAR AND WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE DURING THE MRNG BEFORE REACHING THE CITIES BY THE MIDDAY/AFTN HRS. AS IS OFTEN THE CASE...MODELS DISCREPANCIES RESIDE WITHIN THE BOUNDARY-LAYER. PTYPE WILL BE DETERMINED BY TEMPS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. PREFER A COLDER SOLUTION THAN PREVIOUS FCSTS HAVE INDICATED. GIVEN THE DRY AIRMASS ALREADY IN PLACE /DEWPOINTS IN THE 20S/... EVAPORATIVE EFFECTS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL CAUSE BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS TO COOL AS PRECIP REACHES THE GROUND. DESPITE MODEL DIFFERENCES IN BOUNDARY-LAYER/SFC TEMPS DURING THE DAY...MOST GUIDANCE IN AGREEMENT WITH WET-BULB TEMP PROFILES GENERALLY AT OR BELOW FREEZING THRU MOST OF THIS EVENT ACROSS MUCH OF THE ERN WV PANHANDLE...NRN MD AND EXTREME NWRN VA. PTYPE WILL LIKELY BE ALL SNOW ACROSS THESE AREAS. LGT QPF AND MARGINAL SFC TEMPS WILL LIMIT SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS...BUT THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW. FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST TOWARD THE CITIES/CENTRAL VA/SRN MD...PTYPE IS LESS CERTAIN DUE TO THE SLIGHTLY WARMER BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS. HAVE BLANKETED THE AREA WITH RA OR SN. SUBSEQUENT SHIFTS WILL REFINE RA-SN LINE AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE EVENT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
