powderfreak Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 It's not a problem. They're the same questions we deal with daily from the public. You'll learn in time what a pain it can be to work within political boundaries when forecasting. Making the snowfall map is relatively easy, turning it into a WaWa map is a totally different story. It makes sense...and I know like BTV deals with it all the time in meso-scale upslope, and the BUF with lake effect. You can put entire counties in warnings knowing that one half may be partly cloudy while another side of it is snowing whiteout with plows not able to keep up. Its probably better to over-prepare people if these significant events are happening in a given county, even if another side of the county is getting little to no significant weather.

free_man Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Birv is another one who downplays and ends up being moremaybe, but marginal setups require some caution. What is expected qpf? I am expecting .8 to 1.1 and with low ratios andb said marginal airmass, 4 to 9 sounds okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Well it started as snow in Greenwich. Impressive LL will get his snow after all perhaps. Don't think I'll be awake to see it start here.....hopefully will find an over-performer. Even a performer will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend is student teaching in Hartford for the last semester of her masters year and asked me if she was going to have a snow day tomorrow. I had to explain to her that Hartford in the CT RV isn't exactly gonna hold the cold lol. 34/25 here with -5 850s overhead.

N. OF PIKE Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 given the now cast trends i think it's time for someone to put some balls on the line. granted no one thinks much of my balls but i will do so regardless. now cast observations precip is rocketing up coast....it is hvy off of Delmarva and S jersey and it's also consolidating nicely over NNJ/NYC /W LI/SW CT and moving mostly NNE . mod/hvy rates are breaking out as far N as danbury ct right now Areas like Chris M's house are prolly gonna get rock'd (6-10) This is an elevation event in SNE things i'll be watching for Wether hvy precip expand more N / NNE/ or NE over next cpl hours if it expands more NE then areas like tolland could get into the mod/to hvy stuff as soon as 10pm ....well ahead of schd. if this occurs they could see a warning level snow fall.
