wstaude Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Which magical model from lala-land are they going by?! The 18z nam has a tiny tiny sliver of 6-8", then the second batch suppressed south. I'm not going to complain, but I have to wonder what they are seeing that we aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mailman Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 PBZ: .SHORT TERM /MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...MODEL GUIDANCE HAS FINALLY STARTED TO CONVERGE ON A SOLUTIONREGARDING THE STORM SYSTEM IMPACTING THE REGION OVERNIGHT THROUGHMONDAY. ADJUSTMENTS WERE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON...BUT FINER DETAILWAS FINALLY ABLE TO BE ADDED WITH INCREASED FORECAST CONFIDENCE.WARM AIR ADVECTION UNDER SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE INADVANCE OF A FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT WILL SAG SOUTH ACROSS THE FORECASTAREA OVERNIGHT AND CONTINUE TO SLIDE SOUTH ON SUNDAY.TEMPERATURES WILL QUICKLY DROP TO SUPPORT ALL SNOW BEHIND THEFRONT BUT LOCATIONS WILL SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN ORSLEET DURING THE CHANGEOVER FROM RAIN TO SNOW OVERNIGHT AND SUNDAYMORNING. THE MAIN CONCERN ALL ALONG WITH THIS SYSTEM WAS THEPOTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS. WITH THE FRONTALBOUNDARY NOW EXPECTED TO CONTINUE FARTHER SOUTH...ADDITIONALPRECIPITATION NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT INITIALLY PASSINGTHROUGH...BUT WITH A MID LEVEL DISTURBANCE RIDING ALONG THEBOUNDARY LATER SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND THROUGH THE NIGHT WILL BEFOCUSED MORE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. EVEN THOUGH THERE WILLBE PLENTY OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE...DYNAMICS WILL BE MARGINAL ANDTEMPERATURES FAVORABLE FOR DENDRITIC SNOW GROWTH WILL BE AROUND15KFT ON AVERAGE THROUGH MONDAY...WHICH IS ABOVE THE AREAS OFINCREASED OMEGA BASED ON FORECAST SOUNDINGS. SO WITH THE MAJORITYOF SNOW EXPECTED TO BE OF THE PLATE AND ROD VARIETY...OVERALLACCUMULATIONS WILL BE LIMITED EVEN THOUGH SNOW SHOULD REMAINFAIRLY STEADY. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WAS ISSUED FOR AREASNORTH OF PITTSBURGH...AND A WARNING HOISTED PITTSBURGH AND AREASTO THE SOUTH. THOSE PRODUCTS SHOULD BE SEEN FOR ADDITIONALDETAILS...BUT IN GENERAL...WE ARE LOOKING FOR AMOUNTS RANGING FROMNEAR ONE FOOT ACROSS SOUTHERN ZONES TO 3-4 INCHES ACROSS THE NORTHERNEDGE OF THE FORECAST AREA. TIMING OF PRECIPITATION HAS ALSOINCREASED...AND EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO LARGELY BE OVER BY MONDAYEVENING. WITH DRY CONDITIONS AND CLEARING TAKING PLACE MONDAYNIGHT...TUESDAY MORNING COULD SHAPE UP TO BE MUCH COOLER THANPREVIOUSLY EXPECTED AND LOWERED FORECAST MIN TEMPS ACCORDINGLY.

johnswahoo Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I'll bet there will be a trend for this storm to come north by 50 to 75 miles by the time early tomorrow arrives. The trend early this week was for this storm to drive right through Western Pa and now the maps have this storm swamping the middle part of WV and Virginia. Hard to believe that it was that far off just a few days ago. I still say just a little south of Morgantown it the best area for heavy snow but as it comes north, we should see a few more inches...6-10 from Pa State line border to Butler.

CoraopolisWx Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Just saw the wswarning posted by the nws. I'm going to stay closer to their forecast. I still feel that the waa will be strong enough to provide decent accumulations with the second wave, even if said wave tracks further south. At this point I'm going with our climo, past storm history, and a gut. ( which I have a bit to much of right now ). Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkbugspecialist Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Go look at the entire country radar and you will see precipitation spread from Ohio, all the way across the country . I confused like the models.This is very complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdd9108 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Its funny hearing everyone talking about this crazy blizzard that is coming. I have heard around a dozen of people talk about how they are hunkering down tomorrow and enjoying the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
