Reale WX Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 radar looks terrible... really? I thought it looked pretty good. Obs out west are 1/2 - 2 miles and it will continue to strengthen over the coming hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEG NAO Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 radar looks terrible... you can say that again - this is not going to be more then a few flakes in NYC metro http://www.wunderground.com/radar/mixedcomposite.asp?region=b5&size=2x&type=loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEXtreme Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 really? I thought it looked pretty good. Obs out west are 1/2 - 2 miles and it will continue to strengthen over the coming hours. Bingo! This is not a weakening system as it heads east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Bingo! This is not a weakening system as it heads east. Agree to an extent, but would have expected the radar to look a bit better out west...still looks as if it's a M-D line south setup.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It's 32/12 right now in the park. Gonna take a lot to saturate that column. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It's 32/12 right now in the park. Gonna take a lot to saturate that column. and with only light precip, forget it-virga storm at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEG NAO Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 notice the radar - its moving east and the northern extent west of us is only about up to our lat. and that portion is virga http://www.wundergro...99&avg_off=9999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LocoAko Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 ^^^^^ Looks to me that the precip is moving northeast. Instead of ^^^^ you could always use the quote function that the board provides. Makes for easier reading for the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJO812 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 http://www.wundergro...f=9999&smooth=0 The precip is moving northeast, not eastward.

tornadojay Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Having a break in the clouds isnt an indication of anything except.....a break in the clouds. Im completely overcast here, should I expect snow? Agree with BxEngine.. HRRR showed a tongue of dryer air at 850 - 500 mb level just after 12Z moving through.. moisture really starts getting in good at about 20Z and goes into the rest of the day into tonight. I expect the clouds to once again push back in and dominate later this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJO812 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I realize that, come on dude. But in all seriousness, this isn't happening. It's too early to say that. The precip is still to our west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tornadojay Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I realize that, come on dude. But in all seriousness, this isn't happening. while i agree there might not be much more than some scattered light snow showers, I do expect that the atmosphere should moisten up at least fairly well later today.

BxEngine Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I realize that, come on dude. But in all seriousness, this isn't happening. The "its not happening" part isnt my beef....weenies (especially Anthony) get ripped apart here constantly for radar hallucinations....meanwhile those who go too far the other direction are seen as "realists". I mean, posting the Philly radar to show how the precip is only moving due east and is all virga directly to our west.....saying the sun is out temporarily as some sort of proof that the storm wont happen......I get it, this winter sucks. But being a "weenie fighter" sometimes is just as bad as being a weenie (not meaning you, just speaking in general now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tornadojay Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Having the lowest expectations possible is, I believe, the best strategy going forward. well, after the way this winter has been, I could understand someone taking that position.... but the fact that the sun has re-emerged in some areas after more cloudiness early this morning will not ultimately dictate the outcome of what happens later today and tonight...
