Srefs 8 mins

I MUST find a way to post europe's "final countdown" during a storm threat in a important model run suite for just the laughs. Forecasting is what we're here for in these threads outside of banter but the humor keeps us alive.

Your right though the NAM is going to be a pretty important trend setter if you will. IIRC the sref's arent too entirely accurate this season

The srefs did real well with the last storm and was one of the first to sniff out that this one might be more than a coating.

Getting 0.5" of QPF with high ratios should be considered a win with this storm. At this point, the models should have more subtle shifts than anything dramatic except maybe the Euro which is still catching up to the other models. 

You think? :P  24 hours ago we were HOPING to get 1-2".

As expected --- the SE shift commences.  It's like clockwork.  We start with nothing, it rockets back NW and then settles back down SE towards where it was a whiff in the first place.  Still, .25 for NW zones with high ratios will be beautiful when we had SQUAT 24 hours ago!!!

There's no southeast shift yet , GFS ensembles were fine news data in at 12z . Hang in there .

Those high ratios never materialize . Last storm my rations were 11-1 a and it was snowing in single digits .

This storms ratios will be better than the last one on average, 700mb will be much colder for the duration vs just the last 3rd of the pervious one.

Not complaining Paul!  I'm happy.  Even if it's slight, it still snows on a day that it wasn't supposed to snow a flake up here merely hours ago!  Love your style and work on here by the way...

SREFs looks same to me as far as QPF goes....12z runs today I think will lock in a 3-6/4-8 type deal with 12 to maybe 15:1 ratios

They backed off some for coastal sections as the 0.75"+ contour is now further offshore. For NNJ folks it's still about the same.

That's bc you bought the hype of colder aloft= automatic high ratios. The winds were 40kt-60kt throughout the snowgrowth region. Don't care how cold it is, you dont get good dendrites with that kind of wind. Different set up this time.
