ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 What's with the second low in the Midwest?. GGEM is deciding to dig the s/w behind it obscenely SE...prob bogus. But that actually acts to kick the main one E a bit. Without that, GGEM prob would have been a harder hit. Anytime you have the vortmax traveling under DC within 100-150 miles, its a legit threat even if models aren't gung ho on it. That happened in the 1/30/10 storm where they kept trying to keep the heavy snow in NC and S VA but the vortmax was tracking through WV and into S VA...it synoptically didn't seem to make a lot of sense. This vortmax tracks through NC to about ORF, so pretty good, but would need to be a tad more amped to produce well. I wouldn't expect a huge event or anything at this point, but I think it can produce at least something better than a cartopper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 thump events work if the dynamics are right....it doesnt matter if it is 50 degrees......they work here...they work in Atlanta GA....they work in Jackson MS...they work in bizarre places when the dynamics are nuts and/or something cuts off.... My main concern is that the euro is right. We aren't goin to do well with.1" liquid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Back to the weather, the event looks good on a solid 0z suite thus far, Euro needs to dr.yes us. Yes, I think things overall look pretty good for the VD storm. As you say, it would be nice if the Euro would come more on board. I still think the possible so-called PD3 storm still has potential. GFS has consistenly been digging a huge trough, it's a matter of how it's handled in the end as to whether it's a bomb or just a northern stream low that pushes a strong front through (in either case, looks cold for awhile behind it).

ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 fortunately the GGEM is one of the least skilled weather models in existence Yes, it sucks. It has a progressive bias which is a good thing in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Will are you able to see the UKIE past 72? I see meteocentre's placement of the SLP at 96... besides that I dunno what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 did Kev get 35?....do you think the 40" reports are legit? Most people don't think the 40" totals are legit. There's always bogus weenie totals in large events. My neighboring town reported 34.5"...not a chance they got 6" more than me. I havent investigated the Kevin total, I don't think Ryan believes it though. The other poster from Tolland had 28-30" I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 the NYC gradient was sick...23" in Yonkers and 6" at JFK...so dirty if you lived south and east only big storms I can remember like that here would be March 93, March 58 for blockbuster events funny thing on twitter today was the nyc journos saying the storm was minor and localized because nyc didnt get demolished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Will, I really appreciate the insight. Vd is very subtle. Mixed signals for sure. I've liked the window for a while now but the reasons have changed. Thankful the vort stays south but that's not the end all be all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW LI did terrible though (relatively speaking) near JFK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clueless Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Need Euro on board this train. Hard to believe we are just begging for a 2-4. It would e nice to see all the blades of grass covered for all of DCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowloverchris Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 ORH_wxman is in the house. We must have a real potential. yeah I love it when he shows up.

ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Ukie at 96 looks pretty squashed. I thought it had potential at 72 but it must have done something in between frames to stop it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 just because we have short memories, here was the 78 hr forecast of the GFS issued on the 12Z 2/5/13 run don't tell me the Euro was the only one that had the blizz and the gfs was that bad http://charlie.wxcaster.com/GFSArchive.php?datetime=2013020512Z&fcsthour=78&type=1000-500_SLPTHKPRP here's the 84 hr map same run http://charlie.wxcaster.com/GFSArchive.php?datetime=2013020512Z&fcsthour=84&type=1000-500_SLPTHKPRP now, reconsider what the GFS is showing for us tonight at or slightly beyond that range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUweathermanDD Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Yeah, AccuPro needs to hook it up with some text outputs for the Ukie..... That and/or anywhere needs to hook us up with any good maps and such, text outputs would be great, but I'll take GGEMish availability and be happy, that doesn't have text but still. None of my services have good UK, AWP, SVP, or WBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Mitch, for years it only matters what it shows for the yard. It could be an accidental 4z run of the gfs that shows the most snow and the euro is forgotten like milli vanilli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
