needbiggerboat Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 i know its not the same kind of storm but similar heavy snow to Jan 2011 Nothing will ever top the awesomeness of the morning of 2/10/10, in terms of massive crippling snow blitz. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpasi Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Did a little research on the Jan 2011 storm, and found this snipit in the post.."Wednesday’s blowing storm wasn’t as heavy as last year’s “snowmageddon,” when back-to-back blizzards paralyzed the area and much of the rest of the Northeast. But it did dump 4 to 10 inches of heavy, wet snow across the Washington region — twice what had been forecast for inside the Capital Beltway in Tuesday’s forecasts."

Bob Chill Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Am I asking too much for some thunder to mix in at some point tomorrow? Any chance of that type of instability? I'll defer here but there is plenty of vertical motion being modeled. It's pretty dynamic. However, I think we need a rapidly deepening surface low nearby or just off the coast. I don't see that on the models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eurojosh Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I hate the name of this storm....the 2nd wave? for our first major snowstorm in years, we can do better than that right? Sounds like an 80s Europop band... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 You guys in northern Maryland seemed to have maxed out above expectations, so maybe it's D.C. to overshoot the LWX maximum snow map this time: http://www.erh.noaa.gov/lwx/winter/images/SnowAmt90Prcntl.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddy1987 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 There's like no discussion going on whatsoever in the southeast thread for the obvious reason however seeing a how my area has several viewers that are kind of stuck in the middle of both discussion boards do you guys feel like Blacksburg is covering there a** with that advisory or do you feel like dynamics and rates can overcome a borderline 2m display as shown on the 20-22 hour panel on the 18z nam. I would love to see some snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 it's a 6-9" storm for DCA/BWI next storm please edit: is it me, or does this look pretty good? http://mag.ncep.noaa.gov/Image.php?fhr=102ℑ=data%2Fgfs%2F18%2Fgfs_namer_102_500_vort_ht.gif&model=gfs&area=namer¶m=500_vort_ht&group=Model+Guidance&imageSize=M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 it's a 6-9" storm for DCA/BWI next storm please Haha if DCA reports 6" that means this storm would make it on the NESIS scale, thats what it takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxMan1 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 GFS is 4+ for everyone here right now. Ideal run for us all! That would be nice. IMBY I haven't seen 4+ inches since I got here in Dec 2011. Yesterday? Nope. March 6th? Also not even close. March 25th came in at 3.2 inches.
