MJO812 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 We went from almost a big snowstorm on the models yesterday to nothing tonight. Unfrigginbelieveable. The models yesterday were focusing on the wrong low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow_Miser Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 We went from almost a big snowstorm on the models yesterday to nothing tonight. Unfrigginbelieveable. The models yesterday were focusing on the wrong low. Yep, and looking at the latest guidance, the Inverted Trough is probably going to be south of NYC, probably near C NJ and KPHL if the RUC and HRRR are to be believed.

Guest Pamela Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 William, did it have more snow than Jan 96 for your location? I was in Plainview (Nassau County) in '83....my measurements weren't quite as careful back then...but I'd say the totals were pretty close...it was just the rapidness of '83 that was so fantastic...cloudy at noon...snow by 1:00 PM....heavy by 3:30....and then *extremely* heavy after that....I went outside for a few minutes...and that was a *true* whiteout...

The models yesterday were focusing on the wrong low. You mean it's believable. Consider the winter we're in. This isn't the pattern of the last 2 winters with the great blocking, when you could count on most things going right. This winter, it's wise to assume that things will go wrong. It just isn't our winter. We were due for one like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pamela Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 So, if nothing else, we do have history on our side (which Napolean once described as "a set of lies universally agreed upon")...Nature does tend to smile on this area, snow-wise, on February 11th...

MJO812 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 This is getting very interesting, folks.. I like what I'm seeing in trends here The models were keying on the wrong piece of energy.

Absolute Humidity Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Mostly light snow now, some slop still mixed in but looks the transition is well under way so long as the precip keeps up. 34/31 nice plumage over dc Balt on radar, will see where this goes.
