Bryan Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 It's mind numbing trying to discuss the potential there is here for an amazing storm and most of them are just saying, "yeah I saw something like 4-6..no biggie"...ugh...I need more meteorological savvy friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Leaning that way. Today might be the last day I can physically attend classes. I'm so excited lol If models don't change too much...its not even close...go back home. You might get 18" of fluff up there but if you do, its probably 25-30 inches of denser snow down here.

Baroclinic Zone Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Bob, whats your thoughts for the rt44 area? I'm waiting on the rest of the 12z suite to come out before I jump all in. Right now I'm leaning towards a huge hit for the SE MA area. Right now it looks like we'll get the initial WAA snows as the southern stream rolls up the coast and as the northern stream dives in and captures it, we'll have the CCB snows kick in. There might be a sneaky warm layer in there that may give us some sleet, verbatim. This looks like a classic BM storm with a slight "stall" that would prolong the system for a few hours (6-8hrs) If I was to worry about a changeover time, it would be in that transition time as the 2 systems merge S of LI. Timing of that is critical. I feel confident about 6-10" falling right now based on what I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Tim Kelly just tweeted mixing issues on the SNE coast, east of 3A. I think that's pretty much a given in any of these epic type events. Question is how much. As it is now it's an ideal track to cool the CP pretty quickly even where it does warm.

Typhoon Tip Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 People get ready. This deserves to be hyped starting this afternoon in the media. It's interesting to "possibly" go well beyond the average seasonal snow totals from a single event. ...Particularly when going from a deficit to an event-ending total that could so far exceed.

ORH_wxman Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Well every major model for 12z is showing >20" of snow for BOS...waiting on Euro but I'm guessing its not going to back down. Pretty remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 O god...the maps coming out are straight porn... Okay, based on everything I've read here mixing is only going to be a brief problem down here. So why are all the TV mets giving Phil less from this event than the fluff bombs?

klw Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I'm curious if anyone could do a comparison between the setup for this storm and the storm which hit Nova Scotia/ Newfoundland on Monday. Is the set up similar but a few hundred miles west? It deepened very rapidly from 1000 mb down to 950. There have been a couple of bombs out in the Atlantic and I was wondering if they are comps at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
