H2O Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 One other issue is that it isn't all that cold behind the front. delayed but denied? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I'm not fully out but I'm not too optimistic. Very likely no road accum of any value.. not like it matters. The entire region looks like Carthage so I would not expect much road accums even if 2m and 10m temps were 10F lower for the duration of the storm.

Interstate Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Temp dropping OK. Down to 48 here. Not exactly cold but not a mega-torch either. Dropping from mid-40s to wet snow in 12 hours after sunset is not crazy. I want to say that it was in the mid 60's the day before the blizzard of 1996.

True. Though places NW if they're near freezing and getting blitzed it might screw 'em up at least temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Cold front passes in about4- 5 hours. What will help with accumulations is fact that ground is still radiating out the cold of last two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 it's not too often we get 0.5" in 3 hours in a marginal temp situation Even if its all rain that's a hefty amount in a short time....something fairly impressive about this whole thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 it's not too often we get 0.5" in 3 hours in a marginal temp situation That's what I've been hanging my hat on the whole time. The storm has plenty of temp probs close in but there is a big punch with precip. One that we haven't seen since Jan 2011. Not comparing the storms in any other way except for that. 51 down from 61. Not too shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Probably kinda diffuse. Local obs have switched northerly but could just be random.

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 This is probably flawed but Im going to say it anyway. If currently you are at or below 50F I think you see accumulating snow tomorrow for the most part. For instance BWI is at 48 currently...DC 59. Thats what kind of spread we are dealing with at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's probably west the north winds may be air coming in off the snowpack north etc. Dews are still pretty high back NW tho they don't really drop off much till north of PIT. In general it will probably barely be noticeable anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
