CAPE Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 You are quite welcome to join us. Jim Cantore on the other hand....notsomuch Euro ens mean slp track about the same. Over the N.C. sounds to off of acy. However, 850 temps much improved. Worst panel runs 0c along 95 in VA but cuts across far s md up the bay and across the northern delmarva. Awesome. I noticed Mount Holly completely removed any mention of sleet for here during the overnight shift. Was a bit surprised at that, given the Euro even with a slightly eastward track, has some warming aloft. 0z NAM soundings looked like all snow here, maybe a few sleet pellets mixed in at the height, but it seems too cold.

CAPE Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Here is the snowfall map from State College They will update that. Mount Holly hasn't updated theirs since yesterday afternoon either. Wakefield went all in and pulled the trigger already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Everyone is hedging now with the + crap. My forecast is for 1 inch + (could be up to 30 but I'm covering my a**) - Sometimes I wish the local mets would not issue a forecast if it's going to be one like that. At least it's better than in the past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midatlanticweather Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Great storm incoming for your region folks...potential classic. Contemplating an excuse to come down......

mappy Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Everyone is hedging now with the + crap. I think you have to, slight wobbles in the track will make a difference on accumulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 if weatherboy had only keyed on the right shortwave yeah, I was thinking about that this morning.... the computers, like they often do, rush a storm or pattern and they sure did it in this case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I think you have to, slight wobbles in the track will make a difference on accumulations. True but in my job i have many variables and i have to make a definite decision i cannot hedge or i would be broke. They get paid enough to either make a call or at least put out 2 maps one saying what they think and the other saying what could happen if the track changes. I know it is not easy but you have to make a call, especially 36 hours out from a major storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
