TUweathermanDD Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Liking the trend of the UKMET, as well as the NAM and even the GFS as I don't see the wave getting flattened in that fashion, but rather coming further NW with the confluence. RGEM also looks impressive at 48 so that is hopefully a sign of what the Canadian is about to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 wild guess is good snows make it to PHL metro They are definitely in the game but I am not digging the placement of the deformation zones / confluence. But of course, that's assuming the solutions now are correct. Let's see how the ECMWF goes but I am loving the model convergence tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCWeatherGuy Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 What kind of ratios are we looking at here? Gonna be heavy, right? So like 8:1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GD0815 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I know people are gong to be concerned that we are "fringed" but I think where we are at is fine right now...hopefully the euro is similar to the GFS or at least a bit north of 12z yeah, i really like your spot here, especially since there is usually at least a small move north as the storm gets near. im down in DC a lot, wish this was one of the weekends I was there.

NorEastermass128 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Good luck down there guys! Trends look good for a good DC proper snowstorm. GFS/NAM/UKIE all solid hits now. Awaiting the EURO and then it's GAME ON! Take pics so us up north can live vicariously through you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUweathermanDD Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 GGEM gets precip back into DC this run and maybe even a little into Baltimore, still far south but I like where the RGEM stands. Nonetheless, GGEM north of its 12z run, so thats always a good sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Warrior commander Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I hope the Low tracks a tad further N so that DC- PHL get a good snow. System is S. stream, so lots of qpf to work with. Check 00Z ECM as well. Good night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 GEFS 48 has 1004 L basically right over NO 60 has 1001 L C AL/C GA line 72 has 997 L east of HSE by about 150 miles (rough guess) For those that care, QPF at IAD/DCA 0.25... BWI prob 0.15... EZF 0.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow_Miser Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 GEFS 48 has 1004 L basically right over NO 60 has 1001 L C AL/C GA line 72 has 997 L east of HSE by about 150 miles (rough guess) It's a little bit south and east of the 12z GEFS. It overall also looks flatter than the 12z GEFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUweathermanDD Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 at 60 hrs it looked like a massive hit and then it gets shoved wide right by the northern stream.... Do you think it will happen like that Matt? Looks suspect like it really could be a massive hit if the chips fall the slightest bit better.

mitchnick Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 We barely get any precip Mitch. still have 2 and 1/2 days every storm that has fallen apart this year has done it < 60 hrs out, so it can still change (and it ain't perfect either, just better than the rest, but not perfect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUweathermanDD Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 agree - it just got crushed at 66-72... 500 mb looked amped at 54 and 60 hours - nam-ish Yes, the confluence modeled on this run is stronger than nam/gfs with the northern stream just a bit too slow for our liking. Was really good for a while there, better than 12z though and leaves us on the edge of something really good maybe at 12z if the h5 features are more like the american models.
