stormtracker Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'll roll the dice on the thermals. Get a nice thump going, we can overcome a warm boundary layer. EDIT..just read Matt's post. Pretty much saying the same thing. Just get us the QPF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I am not as worried about thermals with a thump like that....rain to heavy snow...even if it is just a 2" pasting for me, better than some light r/s mix that doesnt accumulate....i want a high QPF event 10 out of 10 times Oh I agree... just saying if we could get a slight move of the 850 to our SE we would be in more business... lucky that our thump comes at night as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 We should hold off on the celebrations yet. THere are kids' college funds at stake here. I'm not celebrating at all. This event currently is and always been fraught with problems. But I've seen like 10 great vort and 850 passes on the gfs in 3 days. I'm just a little sick of some of the prolific posts from the usual suspects. Maybe this run keeps them quiet for more than 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Best part of the run might be the max for DC is from 0-3z. .5" in three hours.. I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 FWIW, UKIE at 72 is 34ish and -2c 850s So, that coupled with the maps you posted above, would translate to snow, verbatim? Seems that the heavy precip at that time would translate into snow? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of hard to surmise without soundings... but would be IMO a heavy wet snow... like really wet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
