stormtracker Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 My best forecast for DC at this point is probably 4-6". But I focus on that city too much... Some other forecasts: - Roanoke: 1-3" - Philadelphia: 5-7" - New York: 1-3" - Boston: 4-6" - Portland: 2-4" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Anyone think forecast amounts need to be bumped up? Could you go 8 to 12 in DC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Anyone thinks forecast amounts need to be bumped up? Yes. I think we do better than what LWX is currently forecasting, at least IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Anyone think forecast amounts need to be bumped up? Could you go 8 to 12 in DC? Not this year, or with a marginal boundary layer. Public isn't going to notice if there;s 10" when 4-8 was foretasted. They will notice if there's bare pavement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxtrackercody Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 You guys are focusing too much on the moisture content and not the temperatures themselves. As I've been told, water-laden aggregates (clusters) of snow don't accumulate effectively, which makes perfect sense. You just get a slushy mess. It'd be different if temperatures were a bit cooler.

terpsnation Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Weenie question: the latest models/expert nowcasting - when will this thing start ripping in DC? I went away for a few hours, and it seems to have switched from a "mostly tomorrow" storm to a "mostly tonight" storm. I'm a few drinks in, need to determine if I should moderate myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there will be more up here than "a slushy mess". Good lord. I'm not saying the event will end up "a slushy mess" I'm just stating that's what having a very wet, heavy snow in a marginal temperature environment tends to bring. I do think there will be substantial snow in DC, but probably not over 6" like most are indicating, and definitely not over 9", "dude". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
