PhineasC Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 why mock mother nature like this? Such a nice track and evolution for a 5-8 inch storm around here. Sucks that the temps are no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Such a nice track and evolution for a 5-8 inch storm around here. Sucks that the temps are no good. From Ji west there may hope especially for Winterwxluvr. For me, I might as well ount for accumulating snow or set my sights down to seeing a sloppy flake burst on the car window. The sad think is this is the best model for snow of the sorry lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I still can't punt this one. Bob's excitement about the vort is too infectious. I'm rooting for a really cold rain. I think the nam takes the vort further north than what will verify. It's being going nutz so gfs is prob the the best guidance. Not that cold rain vs colder rain matters much.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Looks like the surface is still above freezing at 60 hours. Definitely too warm. Where is the cold air when we need it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 on a wx related note, I do like the way the 84 hrs 5H has the trough deepening more toward the SW than SE http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/Image.php?model=nam&area=namer¶m=500_vort_ht&cycle=18ℑ=nam%2F18%2Fnam_namer_084_500_vort_ht.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 For bwi n im pretty convinced there should be enough for over an inch. i think it definitely depends on surface temps. might be one of those non-accumulating moderate snow events which would be kind of a buzzkill. hopefully most of the precip falls after dark.

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Im whining with the south and east crowd because I would rather see the cities jackpot than home since thats the only shot at a work shutdown. Otherwise I have to drive crappy backroads to try and get into work and deal with school issues for my kid. All the headachs of snow with no benefits. By the time I get home from work it will all melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I guess what we need to know (anyone knowledgeable chime in), is there any hope for the surface? Would a track a little further south get us some snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
