weathafella Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 I slept in big time today and smiled at the euro. Let's lock that for the 2 warning events it brings mein5 days...lol. Thread title is juiced up swfe and that looks probable. Today's guidance continuing the trend. Amazing how this has stayed a big event from d8 in.

Cold Miser Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Nice and thanks for keeping us up to date, appreciate it. On a personal note we have a huge animatronic bug exhibit crossing the country scheduled to be here Wed AM for delivery, big undertaking and logistics of unloading. weather is crucial and I appreciate all the input from all the pros and the non pros. (OT if you have kids they will love it when it opens) Animatronic bugs. lol. Let me know when that opens up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Ryan? 99hr is easily IP/ZR/R so it must turn over quickly after 96hr. Maybe a 0.40-0.60" thump of snow before mixing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Saw that... the map I looked at first looked warmer. Will wait for BUFKIT to know for sure. living on the edge, thumpidity dumper, dynamic cooling, I do like that 2/3/11 analog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Moot point anyways, top analog now is 2/3/11 I think that is the one that ended that epic one month long stretch.....the one that TV mets were going 1-2' in, despite the mid level centers being west.

Ginx snewx Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Animatronic bugs. lol. Let me know when that opens up. FEB 15th, school vacation week, come see me. Looks like we at least get a solid base of snow bro, tainted but big net gain. then we await the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I think that is the one that ended that epic one month long stretch.....the one that TV mets were going 1-2' in, despite the mid level centers being west. It was a two part system. The first overachieved. This was the famous Chicago Groundhog blizzard. I don't see this as a good analog per se.

ORH_wxman Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Its the top analog on CIPS based on all the factors they figure in. I like the QPF too It is really part 2 of that storm that the analog is focusing on in the CIPS database. Part 2 was like s 3-6" type snowfall with sleet/ZR quickly after that...not much of a snow producer...even up into CNE round 2 didn't produce big amounts.

This won't be an ORD blizzard like that storm was. The SWFE aspect of it may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 2000 not 2007 is the analog See the other posts. It was VD 2000. Keep on reading the thread. I got sucked in once someone said 2007 not 2000....didn't get the reverse correction, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Canadian is SE of ACK. Would be about all snow even just south of the Pike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Canadian is SE of ACK. Would be about all snow even just south of the Pike. SNE (at least pike region into S NH/S VT) gets the deformation snows on the back end on that run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hoping climo starts to take over at some point. Climo won't take over for particular winters, like 04-05 winter that stayed pretty much our winter throughout the season, didn't change all that much even into March. So not all winters favor climate, there are some that have favored SNE in the first half before changing to NNE in the second half, but just because climo suggests one thing does not mean the weather will follow suit. I think this storm will be a big SNE snow producer with a further southeast shift in store, favoring CNE and SNE with the heaviest snows. NNE will get in on the action, perhaps up to 6", but this one is trending southeastward as the Polar Vortex over Southern Canada shifts southeastward.

They always move north/south/east/west to bring the Cape big snows. We are still waiting for the storm you think may trend unfavorably . You said the Monday system would trend north into a decent hit, now Wed will trend south to be a bigger hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are, but as James said, some winters the normal stuff doesn't happen, you can't just rely on the climo norm in this winter's events ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whineminster Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I know Will knows all the dates, but there have been Feb ice events. In some areas, bad ones. I would assume some of the non frozen would be sleet though. Well current trends suggest all snow so maybe we don't have to worry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
