Election week coastal storm threat


Midlo Snow Maker

Recommended Posts

And now the 6Z GFS goes way east. These models are having one terrible time with this system. Unreal.

Seems like we have seen this before (Sandy). Euro keeps the storm closer to the coast with a subtler turn to the left whereas the GFS takes it out to sea farther with a more drastic turn to the left resulting in a farther north solution. And thinking about it didn't the NAM do this as well when it came to Sandy?

I would wait until the 12z runs role in. The GFS is probably too far east, but even the euro ensembles sort of kept best QPF to the east of 95 from my crude maps. Euro was interesting though..lol.

The overall mean looks pretty near the op maybe 100 miles east from what I seen. Don't have qpf maps for it though. I seen JMA was pretty big hit as well. Rough forecasting for mets around here.

Let us see how this pans out but if the Euro were to verify on track and strength that would be a pretty impressive 2 week run for it. Locking onto a solution 7 days or so out and then running with it for the duration. Don't have access to the precip maps so I am not sure how the Euro did on that as far as verification for Sandy. Does anyone know?

It wasn't far from the op though. I may have to warn about the S word to clients as crazy as it sounds. LOL.

Everyone at penn state thought I was crazy back in Oct 2009 when I said to people it was going to snow 3-6" on campus. Even my professors were like ya maybe an inch. We got 6". Seems these early season snows are becoming more common. We just had one last year again so hey why not.

Oddly enough, I'm still doubtful the Euro is going to be right. Usually I start getting excited and invested in something like this. I mean the euro is on this thing hard. Meanwhile, the nam and gfs are saying wha?

That's why I would wait until the 12z runs come in to be sure. At this time range though, hard to beat euro and ensembles, but a compromise is possible.

Whats odd is aren't we like within 72 hours now? Realistically isn't that the time frame that the euro should be performing the best? Ha....never an easy feeling here in DC...even when it comes to rain...dry on some...wet on others...white on one

If this were a game of hold em, the Euro is all in. Is there any model even close to it.

Going to be an amazing job or crushing fail by the Euro this time.

Ahh at 0z the GGEM was a pretty big hit snow wise for many from DC/BAL west and north up through the 80 corridor of PA, 9 hrs of snow on the indiv maps for Baltimore with similar numbers for DC.

Additionally, the JMA is on board for a big hit as well, which EasternUsWx keeps telling me is the 3rd best model in the world now.

Euro, GGEM, JMA vs GFS/NAM- its like Hulk Hogan, Rick Flair and George the animal Steele vs the Junkyard dogs

I'm convinced someone will see some flakes from this. For you and me being closer to and in DC it will be much tougher.

Apparently so....what are your thoughts?

There will be a storm along the coast with precip of a yet to be determined type. Just saying that took a lot of effort. I'm spent.

I do think some will see snow. How much? I really don't know as i have a hard time believing the euro to pan out exactly as modeled on the 0z

UKMET way out to sea ahead of time mitch accidentally had it, but the SLP placement is wayyy off judging by the h5 set-up in my opinion... should go from off SC coast to off VA similar to the GGEM track if it followed the heights but I'm not sure.

it was out when I said it was OTS

the Plymouth site has it quicker than the rest of the free sites
