Deck Pic Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 The GFS is a pretty significant outlier overnight, but I can buy a prolonged light event during the day. How much QPF for DCA through 12? - 0.77" I see. Fits right in with the NAM and others. 6-8" and then we take our chances. yeah...and we'd flip by 5am or so I would guess...but based on my maps, I'd guess 90% of that 0.77" is by 4-5am....11pm - 4am could be ripping +SN which is pretty cool...which means I'll stay up for most of it..sleep for 3-4 hours and wake up to light mix falling on cleared roads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxMan1 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 That's still (hopefully) a nice 4-6" frontside thump for most of us. After that, it's looking more like March 6th, not so much with the thermals, but possibly lighter precip east of the def band. I guess if we're going to mix or change over to sleet/rain/drizzle, it may as well be light. But again, it's becoming apparent that what's going to allow DC-Balt and points east to get more than 6" would depend on what we can get from the deformation band as it lifts NE. Not a good sign if we end up well to the east...

Don Cherry's Jacket Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'm having trouble reading the graphics from my mobile, but am I reading right that the Euro shows sleet, maybe even rain, for a sizable chunk of our QPF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 0.7 falls here through 12z Thursday. 850s are -1 to -2 here by 00z Friday (warm nose likely elsewhere). Another 0.1 to 0.15 (ish) falls after 00z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Surface isn't the main problem. 850 track is way too close. yeah, was just thinking more about the high placement overall. where it is helps allow the close in track. the low basically gets to St Mary's county. i'm almost ready to punt anything in the day thursday.. once we lose it, not getting it back easy imo.

WxMan1 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 How highly irregular would it be for much of NC to cash in on some pretty decent snowfall today and yet we here would have ptype issues some 36 hours later? What sucks is we still have 2 more Euro runs before precip falls to cash in or bust further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a 2-phase storm for DC based on euro...thump until 5-6 am...dryslot, light snow/mix for a few hours...then picks back up 10-11am and rips pretty good until 4-5pm...then back to lighter stuff through the evening..my guess is during the "2nd phase" we are 32-33 ...we pop warm by 7pm but I think that is because we are light precip by then....if we can get into good banding in the 11am - 4pm period, we should be ok to add another 2-4" on top of our initial 6"....all based on euro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohleary Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 WPC's Kocin and Cisco throwing in the towel...also, three supplemental sounding sites through 12/18Z...FFC, CHS, GSO. Might give a better handle on temps. Euro 850 mb 0C line out to Sterling at 18Z...so hopefully pellets but the trend warmer at the 12Z suite is ominous. Still snow overnight though!

aldie 22 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Euro is still the most west of ll models right? Is it reasonable to think the correct solution is still a bit east of what it has now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 We need the NAM to save our hopes and dreams. Yeah, I said it. NAM. On a serious note, that dry slot is a nasty concern on the Euro. Not only do we have to worry about warm air, now we worry about dry slotting...although with warm air, maybe that's not such a bad thing. 6 to 8 inches, followed by drizzle and drip drip all day. I want to cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
