AlaskaETC Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 HALFASS FORECAST DISCUSSION NOTIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDATLANTIC ALL NIGHT MONDAY EST ALL MORNING TUE 2015 IIRCILOLATTHEIDEAOFSNOW4U .SYNOPSIS... A STORM THAT WAS MODELED AS A SIGNIFICANT EVENT FOR THE MID ATLANTIC IS INCREASINGLY TURNING OUT TO BE NO SUCH GODDAMN THING. RADAR INTERPOLATIONS SUGGEST THAT THE WIDESPREAD 2-18" ACCUMULATIONS PROGGED FOR LATITUDES BETWEEN 40 S AND THE RIC SNOWHOLE SHOULD BE DISCOUNTED AND THOSE WHO SUGGESTED SUCH IMPACTS SHOULD BE DRAWN AND QUARTERED THEN SHOT AT DAWN. WILL MONITOR THIS SITUATION OVERNIGHT FOR POSSIBLE MITIGATION, WHICH WILL BE REFLECTED IN THE ZONES. IN THE DALIES.... ER, HOURLIES ... ER, MINUETES ... A BIG FRIGGIN' HOLE IN RADAR RETURNS CENTERED OVER WC/SC/NC/NW/C/EC/SEC/SWC VA AND IN THE POTOMAC HIGHLANDS (WHEREVER THEY ARE, SOME SAY NORTH OF GREAT FALLS, SOME SAY AROUND THAT POWER PLANT IN MOUNT STORM) ... BUT NOT, AS WE STRESS, LIMITED TO THAT AREA ... MEANS THAT, IN THE MEANS, WE MEAN ... THAT ANTICIPATED FRONTOGENESIS IS NOT QUITE AS ROBUST ... HELL, WE MIGHT AS WELL SAY ... IS NOT HAPPENING TO ANYTHING LIKE THE EXTENT ANTICIPATED OR AS MODELED BY THE HRRR/RGEM/ZZTOP/KBILLYSUPERSOUNDSOFTHE70S SHORT RANGE MODELS. !IN FACT, SUCH FRONTOGENESIS MAY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SYNOPTIC PRESENTATION AS SUGGESTED BY THE SUITE OF 18Z MODELS: EURO (IT WAS SIX HOURS LATE BECAUSE OF PATHOGENSIS IN THE DATA INGESTED FROM CRIMEA RAOBS THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED BY LOCALIZED UNREST), RGEM (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE UPGRADED RGIII, AN EXPERIMENTAL RUN OF WHICH DROPPED WIDESPREAD 20-30" ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS THE LWX REGION BUT WAS DISCOUNTED DUE TO A LACK OF DATA PROCESSING ROBUSTNESS), AND THE HRRR, WHICH HAS BEEN DISCOUNTED BECAUSE IT LACKS TWO "O'S" IN THE ACRONYM AND THUS ALWAYS TENDS TOWARD MORE AGGRESSIVE WINTERTIME SOLUTIONS. THEREFORE, HAVE DECIDED TO DISCONTINUE WSWs FOR PRACTICALLY ALL OF THE AREA (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PARR'S RIDGE, WHERE LATEST GROUND-TRUTH REPORTS VERIFY 4-6"/HR ACCUMULATIONS) AND HAVE COORDINATED WITH BOX, GYX, AND ALY TO HOIST BLIZZARD WARNINGS FOR THE NEXT FORTNIGHT, IN KEEPING WITH SEASONAL TRENDS.

caviman2201 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Okay... pulling out all the stops. I had a DuClaw's Sweet Baby Jesus in the back of the fridge. Cracked it open because... we need all the help we can get to even come close to verifying the 6-8 forecast here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hosj III Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 This graupel is stupid. The one thing I thought was a lock (favorable snow growth/ratios) flops. I love living in the Mid-Atlantic.... even with temps in the lower teens we manage below 10:1 ratios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its a 'hip' thing... During the 2/5-6 blizz, my buddies and I went out and got several (yea...) 30-packs of Natty Lite just so we had something light to pound all night long. Now that I'm no longer 20-something and single, buying several 30-packs of cheap stuff to get trashed on for hours doesn't go over as easily... haha. Its nice to celebrate with something a little nicer nowadays.... Finishing the eve with a Samuel Smith Imperial Stout. If you've never had Samuel Smith (not Adams), give it a try. Its awesome.

nw baltimore wx Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Hot damn, I love watching snow fall. I took a nice hour walk and the bottom of my pants are wet and my face feels hot. It's like being a kid again without the sore shoulder from throwing too many snowballs. I was going to go to bed, but one more beer and more window watching with the cat in my lap. .

AdamHLG Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The best part of Meso's post was "the Potomac highlands where ever the hell they are" rofl. I always wonder that. Where the hell is that? Last time I checked the Potomac was a river and was at sea level. And it's not Potomac MD unless that's a separate zone from Rockville. I dunno.
