TwcMan Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Looks like it's snowing down near Virginia beach. Very cold air mass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I was wondering if anyone around there was seeing anything based on the radar. From just north of that squall it looked like a summer storm, i had blue skies, and just to the south was as dark as ive ever seen. Pretty cool.

Rjay Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 yeah, let's get excited over the day 8 euro! nothing can go wrong! Who's excited? People are just stating what it shows. Its really not a terrible set up. On this particular run--- The PNA ridge looks pretty good..the PV won't let it cut and the northern stream is forced underneath us and we have a decent/good solution.

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 The Chesapeake Bay effect snow down in Virginia Beach is awesome with the due north fetch coming straight down the bay. They actually had a solid event a few years ago. Getting dark here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsentropicLift Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Getting a fierce squall here. Wind is blowing far too hard to accumulate but it looks like a snow globe out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Snowing harder then at any point yesterday!! Definitely 1/4 or less and heavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 By far best rates since last winter. Accumulating fast I would estimate current rate around 2" an hour. Can hardly see down the block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 By far best rates since last winter. Accumulating fast I would estimate current rate around 2" an hour. Can hardly see down the block Only got down to about 3/4 mile here in Western Nassau. But the clouds had a great convective look to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjay Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Only got down to about 3/4 mile here in Western Nassau. But the clouds had a great convective look to them. Was def less than .5 miles here but was not under 1/4 mile. Its now over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Suns back out and still moderate. Best squall in years. Solid coating in 10 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Was def less than .5 miles here but was not under 1/4 mile. Its now over. If your in Merrick right now you just missed it. I must have been under the best part of the squall. When I cant see the trees on the next block I consider that legit SN+. Only lasted for a few minutes at that rate.

I never made it to sn+ but it was close. Visibility shot down under .5 miles for like 5 mins.Edit: edited 12 times using a samsung galaxy s5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visibility shot down under .5 miles for like 5 mins. Edit: edited 12 times using a samsung galaxy s5 I should have taken a video. There were a couple minutes that were close to whiteout with gusts in the 40 range. Winds have died significantly now. Based on the radar we were both under 20-25dbz for a time but i must have lucked into getting into the tight little area of enhanced precip. Of course the one time i jackpot is during a 10 minute squall!! It did freshen up yesterdays snow nice, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjay Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 ahh another voice of reason - the bolded I can agree with. Without the 50/50 - you need a perfect track, esp immediate NYC metro.. People see a model suite that brings them snow and pounce - too funny Why is everyone always looking for KU set ups? It can and will snow without one....it's just harder. The models today show another option on the table. I am not leaning one way or another yet. It's weird when people bring up other posters pouncing on a single solution when all they are doing is stating what the model showed verbatim.

I think we just got accustomed to the go big or go home mindset with record -AO levels and snowstorms of recent years. But many can still enjoy smaller to moderate storms that generally occur when the AO is in a more positive phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously this!I'm also leaving some room for more than a moderate event if things fall right. PNA Spike...transient blocking...good cold air source...but I'm probably just being a weenie.

BxEngine Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Delete away mods. But please also be mindful of blatant misinformation that is being disseminated in your decimated forum that very few post in anymore. Then attack the information. Whining and personal attacks do nothing but further degrade the convo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
