swva Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Just measured 3" in ROA at 1am. Still snowing moderately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 33 and steady rain. when we are cold enough for snow, moisture is so starved, and systems dry up like oases in the Sahara Desert. when we have milder airmasses, you'd be surprised how much moisture we get, and how steady the RAIN is - EVERY fookin time! I hate this damned winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I was excited to see rain this morning. But there was some slush on the bottom of the windshield from whatever crap fell beforehand. At least I can record a trace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUweathermanDD Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 then got on the bus, then punted on 3rd and 28, then caught the bus at the next stop, then did a chinese fire drill No I tried to at least be interested for a miracle, but I punted so early they made me punt again for false start.

Bob Chill Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 No I tried to at least be interested for a miracle, but I punted so early they made me punt again for false start. No worries. I was never invested and i still ended up scoping and hoping yesterday. Never even had the ball to punt and the storm still managed to get under my skin. I've been all in for vday for a week now. It's gonna be awesome. Big storm runs this weekend with a final solution of a slider or inland Rainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big storm runs this weekend with a final solution of a slider or inland Rainer. I'm so glad I actually did some investigating of the pattern and it was simple NW low screws us. The miller b h5 set up also keyed my reasoning. All locals saying 1-3" on the backside for BALT, i say .5 if that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The miller b h5 set up also keyed my reasoning. All locals saying 1-3" on the backside for BALT, i say .5 if that I would say no way with a normal coastal because it's super tough to throw back unless the low stalls. Forward momentum trumps. However, this isn't typical wraparound. Its the energy from the nw low getting pulled in. Odd interaction. We don't see it often at all. Not saying it's going to produce but it's hard to say what happens with the line of precip to the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Today he thinks we'll get hit on models, but real solution of no dice I think it will happen sometime this weekend. Maybe today. It's become close to a lock that there is a trailing vort behind the cutter that gets juiced with extra energy diving down. Cutter times ok as a 50/50. It's a ripe setup for the globals to set us up for failure and despair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like joking around but imo- I really believe in a better than 50% shot at getting widespread 2"+. Best case (obviously) is something between the last 2 gfs runs but not some amped coastal. I think the only way to get an amped coast is to go the transfer route. I'll take an ene trajectory vort and 850 pass below us as a best case. Best of all it screws NE so there may be a little bias. LOL. Just tossing my 2 cents tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I've punted the V-day threat... deep. I'm punting the 18th. I'm punting this upcoming pattern, and I'm punting whatever other fantasy threat the models conjure up. I'm punting what remains of this winter. I'm punting next winter. When I get home I'm punting the dog, and if I see on old lady crossing the street I'm punting her too. *%#$ing cursed mid-atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
