ravensrule Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I have to say, I'm a lot more pessimistic than I ever was for this storm for my area. It sucks, but we knew we could be in this situation from the beginning. You guys out west though should be pretty stoked. It is so much more fun when Ji has to suffer along with the rest of us.

easternsnowman Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Euro held. Safe to say warnings will fly sometime relatively soon. That's what I thought too....that it held.

MN Transplant Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 does anyone remember daytime temps in the march 9 1999 storm? 26/27 at DCA per wunderground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Eh, I'll just hang at home.. probably have to go in tomorrow now... This why LWX hasn't popped a WSW yet? That would be a kick in the nuts if they issued a WWA, not that changes what the outcome will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 It's better to look at the daytime temperatures of the 3/14-15/99 storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 It makes me sad to think about the poor snow flakes that will be falling and suddenly coming to their wet demise just a couple hundred feet over our heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 this might be the best run since 2009-10. This should outdo the Commutergedden storm I got 14" in that storm I highly doubt this outdoes that storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo2 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I realize the clown maps are just that, but can anyone explain totals in FDK? It has been present on just about every run of the nam for the last 6 cycles. Not complaining, just curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been present on just about every run of the nam for the last 6 cycles. Not complaining, just curious... Frederick is in a valley, and in a marginal storm like this, elevation could have a big role. So that means less snow for Frederick due to lower elevation.

Solo2 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I know we are in a valley, but the lower amounts don't correlate to the valley...in fact most of the area in the lighter shading is well elevated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 The snow maps from the nam have been particularly bad for whatever reason as in they don't seem to match soundings that well on the edges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Shutup. I want my foot of snow so I can watch it melt in 28 hours. I meant they seemed underdone in places like DC etc. 0z was a snow bomb for most everyone and it still had that same look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozz Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I know we are in a valley, but the lower amounts don't correlate to the valley...in fact most of the area in the lighter shading is well elevated. I'd then say the clown maps don't have enough resolution to properly locate the exact area with less elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno.People like Matt my buddy have confused others into thinking the nam is totally useless when that is incorrect. I just don't get how people who spend so long here don't understand how models work or the caveats associated with all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to know the algorithm used to generate this map. What causes the reduced snowfall in Frederick County and that spot in MC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
