H2O Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 The maps being posted are not instilling any confidence for me. A touch early for serious "guesses," i think. I'll make sure to post mine later. That should seal it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I bet the 00Z tonight edges back north. Some are acting like the GFS and Euro are hundreds of miles away OTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 You've misunderstood DT...he posts a guess...then a "serious" guess...then a "final" guess...then a call..."serious" call...first call...second call...final call...call revision (after storm ends). I'll make sure to post mine later. That should seal it for you. lol DT is one thing but the weenie maps are another. It's almost as if some people feel an event is more impending if enough of us that at this point have clue nada make a map. So, yes, go at it Waterboy! I want to feel better about my chances. I'll give you my address so as to make sure I'm in the purple portion, ie, the 8-12" on your map legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I bet the 00Z tonight edges back north. Some are acting like the GFS and Euro are hundreds of miles away OTS. I kinda got that impression too (people thinking that the globals were at odd with each other). When you break them down, they are quite close in their solutions. Especially @ 500. Focusing exclusively on the precip shield placement is bad analysis imo. We'll see what happens with 0z but I was encouraged by the 18z gfs slowing the system down and being colder at the surface.

Kmlwx Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I agree that the temp profile has improved, but the precip amounts are noticeably lighter. My concern is that we just can't seem to get a good 2-4/3-6 inch snow around here anymore. We either get blitzed or we wind up with < 1 inch crap. I would love a moderate snow event, but the trends have been for less precip and any further south trend gets us to fringe state. Here's to hoping for a better model day tomorrow. MDstorm I know this is OT but I hope you are just referring to this year. Otherwise I'm afraid you have forgotten last January and then 09-10...we can certainly get good solid events. Just harder in a Nina. It's not like we will never get that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Is it cool if I start a snow total guess/maps thread? Anyone else for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Is it cool if I start a snow total guess/maps thread? Anyone else for this? I'm guessing most of the weenie guesses could go in here. Might make it a good place to put all the generally weeniefied and crappy maps into. Although, maybe a tad early for people to start going map crazy.

Kmlwx Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 That could be fun And then we'd know where the most annoying and inaccurate weenies were.
