CoastalWx Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Models likely took into account dewpoints were not 70+ near NC...lets not think models are that bad..they are good. It's important not to get wrapped up in some of these reasons why a storm will do this or that. Having the baroclinic zone a little weaker is probably why this wasn't modeled to come a little closer...but again this is a progressive pattern regardless of the baroclinic zone.

free_man Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah the 30 miles really was detrimental to that. If you are being sarcastic, I wasn't referencing the east/west delineation of 30 miles. I'm guessing 30 mi. OTS didn't pick up 30" of snow, either.

JBG Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Yeah...and who's to say this one doesn't continue to pedal west? I'm now more nervous about taint than I am whiff.Sort of like the Christmas 1969 storm; from whiff to taint in 12 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 This storm was dissapointing. Was this the storm that the gfs wanted to give all of eastern new England a mega blizzard right up until the event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 Didn't KNYC get about 7-8" out of it before changeover? No, you are thinking of the storm just prior...on Feb 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBG Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 No, you are thinking of the storm just prior...on Feb 13. Thanks. Quite a tainted one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Thanks. Quite a tainted one. Best storm since Boxing Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBG Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Best storm since Boxing Day. January 29, 2011 fits that description. Some of the January 2014 ones weren't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 January 29, 2011 fits that description. Some of the January 2014 ones weren't bad. I actually didn't see a single 12" storm between Boxing Day and Feb 13, 2014. My records say I picked up 1.0" from the Feb 15 clipper thing... fail.

eekuasepinniW Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I think this was the dick storm that caused me to have to sleep at PHL on my way home from Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
