SabreAce33 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 A bit out of our area, but Im not sure why Wakefield is being slow on the uptake to upgrade OCMD/Salisbury to a storm warning...seems to be enough support for 4-6 inches around there. It is our area! People live here too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Still pretty nice look on the NAM sim radar, if we get a few hours of steady snow from this it'll be a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeoman Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I keep looking at downstream RH and thinking there's no way is anything but virga. But ROA is reporting SN- and 49%. So who knows. Nasty day on the gulf coast though. The dry air is not necessarily at the surface, so I wouldn't use that as a tool for determining whether or not it's too dry at the surface to precipitate.

Bob Chill Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 also, it's the stuff in eastern TN that we should be concerned with better the expansion there the better we'll be that's all part of the northern shortwave lagging just a bit behind schedule. Adding some lift and energy on the nw edge of the shield. It's probably why ROA seems to getting a bit of a surprise. They have to have an inch by now?

mitchnick Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 18Z NAM actually pushes the .1" line to the west around us but contracts the .25" and .5" lines to our south and east vs. 12Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 So we have more models on the low end with 0.05-0.1 and the NAM on the high end with 0.15. Sure seems like a good forecast is around an inch in DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I can probably speak for the board (except for Ji) when I say a 2-3 hour period of snow with temps in the teens that drops between .5 - 1" of snow would be pretty awesome in my book. It would stick to everything instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Wes is getting crushed after 10pm The bright banding feature on the simulated radar is tad to my south. Still I get over .15" which would easily give me 2 inches and might give me 3 if it is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
