MillzPirate Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Euro shows a solid 1 inch of snow for DCA. I might even forecast 1-2 inches but 2 is the absolute max The low placement actually looks closer to the coast than 12z... I'm not worried about qpf at this juncture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'm assuming RIC is completely screwed then? RIC is a disaster way too warm at surface during precip...precip is to light and by the time you cool down enough...the skies clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillzPirate Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I look at it this way... A 3 hr earlier phase/100 mile shift west gets us into some thick s@&$.

ravensrule Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Will dosent know what he is talking about. DCA gets some very cold snow towards the end As much as i love you i think he knows a wee bit more than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Will dosent know what he is talking about. DCA gets some very cold snow towards the end If you consider 33F and snow very cold at the end, then yes...there is a secondary little pulse of precip that might be a few hundreths after the main stuff that would be much colder, but its probably just snow showers. The main stuff falls between 48 and 60 hours and look at the temps at 54 hours...the 35F isotherm is like over IAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Will surface temps in Boston are nothing I'd brag about 33-34F in Boston is a lot different than having like 37-38F over DCA and 35F over IAD. Euro tends to run a tad warm at the sfc which is why I said I think the interior spots W of the fall line would probably have a shot at accumulation even though verbatim the Euro says no. Also, I don't live in Boston...I'm 40 miles west and 900 feet higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, October sucks now...this winter is horrific. Ji also gets the crappy players in our baseball league to make the worst trades in his favor...that's why he does so well.

ORH_wxman Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 At least you didn't tell me my surface temps were too high They are kind of high in that one too...but you are west of the fall line...you'd probably get some snow...just like the Saturday event...you will probably get at least some snow while the city might struggle. In this winter, flakes in the air is like following a 3-6" event in '09-'10 for you. I'm hoping for 2-4" up here like a 10" event in the last several winters. I remember you got like a 4-6" wet snow event on Feb 2 before the Feb 5 event and people didn't even care...they acted like it was flurries.
