T. August Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 12z GFS is probably the best outcome we could hope for. Hour 72 light precip in the area, 850s -2C, sfc mid 30s. WxBell snow maps show 1-2" of snow for the area (really not that unreasonable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the sfc is 34-36F, so technically it could accumulate. I know what you're saying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 72hrs, DCA's temps at 950mb is 3.6 and at 66hrs around 2.2 or around 36 degrees but the entire sounding is abvoe freezing in the lowest 5000ft at 66hrs. Neither argues for snow.

He was talking up snow but of course no details at this time. Does anyone really watch local TV mets anymore? I find it unbearable(same with sports).

It's weather. We're on a weather board. This thread won't cause anybody to miss a snowstorm. And it's not yet rain for everybody yet. If you don't like it, don't read/open it.

They're all on the same general page. All seem to be going for a noreaster but one that is too warm fro snow because of the low moving into the great lakes and high moving off the coast prior the storm really deepening off the coast.

But at least the good pattern won't have marginal d7+ threats that won't materialize. It will be all snow on the models until they go poof.

Amped Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Euro UKMET are further west and slower than the GFS. Will make for a decent upslope snow event for the western apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Don't know why people were giving randy grief over the thread. If you are that worried about the topic of a thread maybe you need another hobby. I think its good to see so many storms with a good overall track. Fits climo for a niño. If or when we get a colder pattern I think we cash in this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some just have zero interest in tracking a storm unless its a potential snow producer for their back yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallen7908 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Euro forecast is basically unchanged. It now shows 18 consecutive 3-hr periods with measurable precipitation at BWI. Rain could begin early Tuesday morning with temperatures in the low 40s for the bulk of the heavier rain. Intermittent drizzle/light rain through much of Tuesday. Could mix with or change to snow on Wednesday with temperatures falling to mid/upper 30s. Should end by early Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US 201 cuts right through the center of the heavy snow map. Not much as far as population though. Maybe Jackman or Moscow/Bingham area you could find a place to stay. Course you could always just go to Sugarloaf, I'm sure they will get pounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I like this trend. We need more rain trends for rain weenies like myself. Nothing wrong with a good rain. Don't get me wrong. I wish it was a snow trend tho. #sooooooon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Even if we don't get anything memorable from this event, it's amazing to see a system being modeled on the 18Z GFS to stall for over 30 hours, even if it's our rival New Englanders.
