wxsniss Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 So much for euro consistency. Actually, Euro has been consistently meh for at least 4 cycles now. More East, develops too late as southern vort takes its time. We just chose to favor the Nam / Uk / Cmc / Srefs because they showed what we wanted.

Logan11 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I guess the Euro put a fork in tomorrow's event...at least for ENY/WNE. Now on to next weeks occlusion and elevational snow event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I've heard people talking all day about "this big snowstorm we're supposed to get this weekend," and wondering if this or that event should be canceled -- all over what appears to be maybe 6" of wet snow spread over 24 hours. If we get decent rates no less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahk_webstah Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 With dongs and snowstorms, those looking to measure by the yardstick often end up crying for one reason or another. meh....biting the pillow, I have seen, really helps....certainly it does while the models are running I predict a lot of biting of pillows, and cries of pleasure and pain over the next 2 weeks. I also think yardsticks will be involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Actually, Euro has been consistently meh for at least 4 cycles now. More East, develops too late as southern vort takes its time. We just chose to favor the Nam / Uk / Cmc / Srefs because they showed what we wanted. Euro has been slowly moving east with everything...its def been less wild than the others. That said, it has consistently shown the prolonged snows into Sunday night now for a few runs, which I think is the best hope for the CP. The more dynamic solutions of 2 days ago on the Euro are gone. Not much has changed for me in all of this. I have kind of been feeling a low to middle end warning event for the interior hills for a day or two now. 12z runs didn't change that. The coastal areas though are where the forecast gets tougher.

ORH_wxman Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 what do ya think for here Will? No reason to cancel plans? lol Prob 2-4 there. There's a chance it could end up a little more...esp just to your north in NE CT elevations...but doesn't look like a big deal. Even spots that get 6"+ should be able to handle the gradual nature of the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Seeing all these changing maps lately starting 4 days out is really, really bad for this industry. Seeing complaints all over the place. Terrible. Whdh just made their 10-14" to 5-8" and they got like 100 comments on FB from people complaining. Maps should be coming out for the first time right now. I don't know why all of a sudden this year maps are made 4 days out, but it's making public perception of mets even worse then before.

free_man Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 If people generally had the capacity think for themselves and not engulf themselves in tv and media reliance and hypnosis for a lifestyle, there would be no complaints on any forecasts. Does anyone here really care if so and so met comes out with an 8-16" forecast when it has a good chance of being wrong? Blah, OT I guess. This looks like another pedestrian event, amout for days.

ORH_wxman Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Euro ensembles are pretty similar to the OP run...a little more liberal with the 0.75" qpf line though to the west. It doesn't have the snow ending until early Monday morning in eastern areas. I think there could be a nice little period of snow late Sunday along the coast.

I could actually see this being in two seperate pulses almost.

That's the main problem and it makes it look like things are changing all the time while if they posted the first map today, everything would be fine.

My preliminary outlook mentioned maybe a burst of SN..perhaps borderline moderate for a few hours and then perhaps a lull with a light mix or rain, followed by a possibly burst of snow Sunday into Sunday evening. KBOS of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
