Ltrain Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Interesting the warning numbers aren't much different than the adv 1-2 and .2 V 1-3 and .25 I noticed that too. I guess 1 more inch of snow and another .05 of ice is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 How so? 1-3 in town. 2-4 burbsHe has 4-8 over the same area we have 1-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I am always on at least one line in a DT map. Sometimes 3 or even more lines converge at my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 He has 4-8 over the same area we have 1-3 If I get 2-4 then I will dislike DT less...for one day. I think warning area vs advisory is mainly due to the fact that the zr period will last much longer and temps will be more than a degree or 2 colder. Makes sense even if the #'s are close.

Fozz Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Interesting the warning numbers aren't much different than the adv 1-2 and .2 V 1-3 and .25 I think warning criteria for ice is 0.25", so this barely cuts it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I dont understand the around 0.25"... i think this is a broadbrush warning and then they will refine on the early morning package (3-4AM) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think warning criteria for ice is 0.25", so this barely cuts it.I know why on both counts (warning west etc) the diff between it and the advisory just seems marginal considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Still a big difference in timing and precip location between short term models (RAP/HRRR) and NAM. Sterling must be sweating bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I really feel like the models have had this storm locked in pretty well for 3-4 days already. Sure, little differences here and there, but nothing really dramatic. Hope this is a trend this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
