1/21 Clipper that's not a Clipper Thread

[Ji]

Big bowling ball that came out of like MN I think. Northern stream for sure. I have a hard time calling that or this a clipper but I suppose the origins are similar.

JB is going with the RGEM I95 blizzard solution. Congrats...you earned it

[HighStakes]

Tony Pann going for definite snow but only calling for a "few inches" right now.

He said an inch or less at six. At least we know he's paying attention.

[ravensrule]

He needs to listen to his boy Berk more often.

If you remember last Wed i was talking about how Tommy T was honking about this storm and he rarely honks this early. Looks like he knows his stuff.

[Bob Chill]

One of the few times in history Wxbell snow maps will bust low.

I hope you had a screen protector on when you looked at the 0Z GFS and RGEM.

berks the  man!! faith in the flakes

[vinylfreak89]

I'm honestly surprised the GFS went this way... still think more than 2-4 is pushing it (again talking area wide)... will have to see if this holds thru 12Z tomorrow... then I might start to get excited.

Models look pretty good for DC area and north.

I remember when it was tony pan, tommy tassylemeyer, and Justin berk on the same channel, now that was a team, very accurate when they were together for a lot of years

Its always good news when you or ORH or HM post in here

[Ian]

So now you are calling for a repeat of that. Got you now.

does come in across a similar area.. a bit further west than i remembered though was tempted to say nd/mn border. that thing was a beast.. i would have never believed what it did if it wasn't for that season.

Great to see you pop in here Scott. I hope all is well.

Thanks man. Well, I will have to deal with this when I come back in on Tuesday, so I'm invested.

Seeing that gives me PTSD.

I've liked this clipper for a while now. Best pass of the string and on the front side of a big cold push. We needed some luck with the corner turn and it seems like it might happen. I'm stoked. I got 4.5 in early Jan. If this beats that I will check the box next to Jan as being a solid winter month. I don't think were done yet either

[ravensrule]

I hope you are forecasting for our area so we can get some of your pearls of wisdom.

We were commenting up here that we would like to see the euro come around too...but the GFS has been decent as of late. Nice frontogenesis stripe near and north of DC on the GFS. Those that only care about QPF might want to look at H7 RH too. 

[Roger Smith]

Widespread 5-7" potential, isolated 10" max.

 

Amounts less in southern Delmarva due to mixing and tapering to 2-4" across s VA.

To your credit you have been saying that you liked this for a while now. I honestly hope we get an area wide 4-8" so we can all celebrate equally.

Just be sure to have a pocket full of dollar bills and all will be well for the evening.

looking like at least 2 more events the next 7 to 10 days, very active rest of the month

Oh dear lord when you have HM, Coastal and Roger Smith post in our clipper thread you know something crazy is about to go off.

I remember when you honked on Tommy's honk. I started honking when you honked it. LOL. WTF did I drink tonight? So is this the "Ion 2"?

[winter_warlock]

my prediction.... lots and lots and lots of snowflakes.... bet ya im right lol

Yeah, I think the Euro will come around. It's been off its game for a while.. or it seems. I will always worry about the north trend when there is a system like this. But whatever.. I should live in N MD I guess.

You must have just gotten back from Colorado   .

Euro will do something like .15 or .20 that still leaves some doubt in people's minds.
