Scraff Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 He must be taking a beating from some DC folks today, so here is some fun with JB on Twitter: Joe Bastardi @BigJoeBastardi So no misinterpretation.. I love the capital weather gang great for weather! I would ask them tho to go look at DC Feb/Mar snow against NAO Joe Bastardi @BigJoeBastardi You will find your 'magic link" to big DC winters are usually the warm enso (86-87,02-03,65-66,09-10) and/or neg NAO Joe Bastardi @BigJoeBastardi Neg NAO now for mid atlantic Dangerous since NAO Feb15-Apr strongest link to cold/snow with center in mid atl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 EURO lost the wave behind the Day6-7 ULL so there won't be any second storm like it had for day 9-10 last night.....meh continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Maybe he will respond to Ian on Twitter. I don't believe I have ever once got a response from him. He's WAY to cool to talk to the common folks. i don't follow him. this was the only time i've mentioned him there: https://twitter.com/islivingston/status/287620310860189696 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 How can it lose the wave? It was a huge wave My guess is it squashes it behind the monster low bombing into a PV over New England. Our best shot will be as that relaxes/retreats in the March 4-10 period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 And the giant 1010mb low spawns a 991mb low east of the benchmark at 216. Looks like a Miller B that misses us but (*fingers crossed!!*) gives SNE some much needed snow. Probs we get pity flurries while SNE gets to add to the spring snowpack at 240 hr.

Probs we get pity flurries while SNE gets to add to the spring snowpack at 240 hr. yea the euro and gfs have had different solutions for the last few days, with the Euro having more seperation between the 2 waves and the new england low being less inhibiting, the GFS has been advertising that the New ENgland low would bomb and sit there and dominate, and the next wave would basically get absorbed and eventually redevelop another low off SE New ENgland. Today the models are converging on the GFS scenario. I still think our best chance is the following 2 waves after the March 1-2 system. Hopefully as that system over New England finally relaxes and moves out, we get something to amplify behind it during that window of opportunity.

ravensrule Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 To be honest, I'm almost afraid to post in the Mid Atlantic forum because of how desperate the snow fans have become. I'm nervous to say it but I still think there is a 2007-like signal showing up Friday afternoon for N VA-MD-DC. It's not quite the same strength and doesn't have the same amount of moisture, but there is a shot of decent VVs/snow growth during the afternoon before the profiles warm aloft. Also, the low levels would wet bulb down during the snow to allow for some accumulation. If you just glanced at Friday, you would think it's no big deal...and maybe that's right. But the GFS/NAM continue to suggest a possible quick shot of accumulating wet snow down there, IMO. I love the Mount Laurel split on the models right now, haha... then northern suburbs benefit with the developing coastal possibly. Timing is sort of important (I guess it can't be as slow as the very wrong NAM solution) but what's more important here are the VVs. I think if we develop a nice band of mid level VVs with marginal profiles, it would come down as mostly snow before any warm up aloft. I'm not worried about the low levels with this one. The dews should be low still with this last piece of arctic air coming in today/preceding it, and youll be happy to hear the shot comes in between 12z and 18z friday on this euro run...its a modest 0.1-0.2" qpf shot verbatim, but its there nonetheless...it dies before reaching further northeast towards you (naturally) Maybe we actually have an outside chance of breaking our 2" streak Friday. Even a nice 1-1.5" that actually sticks on the roads would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I never wrote off the friday event. I haven't been all jacked up about it but the departing hp starts things off right. All comes down to how much moisture can be pushed into it. There's going to be a lot of hallucinations tomorrow night and friday morning. There will be some nice returns in the southern ohv and even nicer ones further south prior to the precip getting here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Perhaps another indication not to invest much energy in day 7+ computer solutions? The solution in and of itself is not a reason to not invest in medium/long range progs...as chris87 and dtk remind us, if a model shows a solution, it is physically possible. But, as we all know, medium/long range progs should be used for generalities, not specifics. Maybe we actually have an outside chance of breaking our 2" streak Friday. Even a nice 1-1.5" that actually sticks on the roads would be sweet. Now that I look back, my personal IMBY streak is over 2 years for a 1.5" (!) event. Just pathetic.

You got me looking at my own climo. Other than the brutal streak, the thing that is striking about the last three winters is just how awful February, our top snow month, has been.

yoda Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 I want to say that 18z NAM should looks a little better based off the strength of the high and its position for our area.. also a bit more QPF in the Plains on teh 18z run than on teh 12z... grasping for snow straws Through 30 at least IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Even without as much backside energy the EURO still tries to develop some kind of weird low Day 9-10...Just imagine if it actually had stronger energy coming out like its previous runs. I still would keep an eye out on the Early March 1-2 storm because while we have that rotting ULL over the Lakes we have a strong black and +PNA forming which together could almost force this storm to form. It's the reason why some model runs have that ULL pinwheeling back around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see. BTW--The P (Plato) Storm should have been named Pleeplus (DME--a great show) I've tried hard not to complain here because I'm a believer in never letting anyone see you suffer, but we've already had a couple of situations this year where we had the track but not the cold air. We need a forced reboot. If Steve McKenna was in charge of snow, we'd be up to our necks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I guess if you want to look on the bright side...if the gl low wasn't there there would be no coastal in this case. So, the feautre that's screwing it all up is the same feature that's creating it in the first place. So that makes it ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
