MACoastWx Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 JMU, Sorry I didn't get back sooner but I don't have numerical output, just estimating based on graphical data. But I would say the RAP maps have a greater QPF output than the WPC map is showing. WPC says 0.05 for RIC, perhaps 0.01 for CHO. Edit: If I was gonna attempt to estimate total QPF for RIC based on the RAP maps I would say more in the neighborhood of 0.15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeVa Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Just updated It's alright, I guess. LOL This should be an interesting night. Trying to keep my expectations low, but 10-14" that rivals Boxing Day 2010 for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABILLUPS1 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 But according to the RAP shouldn't it already be snowing at a decent clip? I'm wondering if these models aren't a bit overdone on all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
