CoastalWx Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I actually think ern MA and maybe RI and CT have the power issue. In ern areas, it could be a pasty 32-33F snow for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 SR, near BOS is the mid level issue, but N shore would be better. Higher el obviously have the low level cold and no surprise the watch is there. You are also at the mercy of the stupid county zones, so the ideas aren't going to be clearly displayed when bounded by county zone outlines. I don't understand the watch fetish anyways. It doesn't change how much snow you are going to get. Yeah the town of Ware, MA is not in the watch but Hardwick and Brimfield are...it's all because of the county lines.

ORH_wxman Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Broken hearts on the nam lol It looked the same as 12z? It actually wasn't bad for eastern areas. Not that it matters what the NAM shows anyway...maybe by tomorrow morning it will be relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR Airglow Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 lol I don't care at all if I'm in a watch or not, just sort of questioning it from what I was looking at. You all make good points though and thinking about it it's probably the right call to hold off. NAM is basically identical to 12z. More interested in the RGEM though which we'll get out to hour 54 this afternoon so should get a decent idea of what it's thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 New BOX map out, looks excellent overall I think. Whomever did that map certainly understands the elevation around the area.

Nice to finally see them mapping that out instead of ignoring the red-headed step child I see it was Joe D..and i know he gets it..Nice work Giuseppe!! 1) PRECIPITATION TYPE AND HEAVY SNOW... PRECIPITATION LOOKS TO BEGIN SAT MORNING FROM S TO N...STARTING AS SNOW ACROSS MUCH OF AREA EXCEPT FOR RAIN ON CAPE COD AND ISLANDS. STILL LOOKING AT POTENTIAL FOR NARROW BAND OF HEAVY WET SNOW...MOST LIKELY FROM N CENTRAL CT INTO WORCESTER HILLS...NW RI AND INTERIOR NE MA. DESPITE WARMING ALOFT...FORECAST SOUNDINGS IN THIS REGION ARE NEARLY ISOTHERMAL...SO POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW WHERE IT COMES DOWN HEAVY AND ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS. WE ISSUED A WINTER STORM WATCH FOR THESE AREAS WHERE WE HAVE 50 PERCENT CONFIDENCE ON REACHING WARNING CRITERIA...ALBEIT THE LOWER END /6 OR 7 INCHES/. ALSO HAVE TO BE CONCERNED WITH POSSIBILITY OF DOWNED TREE LIMBS AND WIRES WHERE SNOWFALL EXCEEDS 5 INCHES DUE TO WET NATURE OF SNOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Why are we getting the RGEM out to 54?6z and 18z go out to 54hr. I assume it's so you can compare it to the 12z/00z 48hr panels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 RGEM is really mild aloft. Warm at 850 from KORH to KGAY. Seems a bit overdone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 RGEM is warm at 850, pretty much everyone taints. However, it still has almost 5" of snow on the front end at BOS. Don't think there would be much back end though. Will post total snow map when it's out(I only have the meteograms now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Airglow Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 RGEM total snow to hour 48, probably some more after this for the interior areas before everyone is tainting by 54. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
