87storms Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 not gonna lie, breeze is kicking up. i'm legitimately concerned about power going out. the wind, this early in the storm, is taking me by surprise. will only get more wicked. blizzard warning seems like a very good call at this point. this is a big deal storm.

On 1/23/2016 at 12:46 AM, BTRWx said: Thanks for your insight. Great to read that! Thanks guys! The latest HRRR run 23z show's though there is still significant run to run variability. This run, the strongest band is positioned 20-30km further north and west, so the heaviest amounts end up further away from the metro area. Again everyone is likely getting slammed, but it could the difference between event totals near 20" versus event totals 30"+ url: http://www.atmos.albany.edu/student/ppapin/hrrr.php#diag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNOWFALL RATES OF 1-2 INCHES PER HR /WITH LOCALIZED RATES UPWARDS OF 2-3 INCHES PER HR/ WILL BE POSSIBLE. DISCUSSION...WATER-VAPOR IMAGERY AND THE REGIONAL RADAR MOSAIC SUGGEST A BAND OF HEAVY SNOW IS BLOSSOMING ACROSS THE MCD AREA IN RESPONSE TO INCREASING LARGE-SCALE ASCENT...AS AN IMPULSE OVER THE SRN APPALACHIANS CONTINUES TO ROTATE AROUND THE PERIPHERY OF THE MATURING UPPER TROUGH. STRENGTHENING WAA AT LOW/MID LEVELS...IN COMBINATION WITH ENHANCED FRONTOGENETIC CIRCULATIONS...WILL FAVOR A BAND OF HEAVY SNOWFALL RATES THIS EVENING. ADDITIONALLY...LAST VISIBLE IMAGES PRIOR TO NIGHTFALL INDICATED SMALL CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS WITHIN THIS GROWING SNOW BAND...FAVORING ENHANCED RATES. DUAL-POL ZDR AND KDP DATA FROM KFCX CONFIRM THAT DEEPER/STRONGER CRYSTAL GENERATION ALOFT IS OVERSPREADING THE REGION...IN RESPONSE TO INCREASING ASCENT WITHIN THE -10 TO -20 C LAYER. KRLX ALSO DEPICTS SUCH SIGNATURES TO ITS EAST AND NORTHEAST. EFFICIENT CRYSTAL GENERATION AND THEN AGGREGATION BENEATH THAT LAYER WILL FAVOR VERY HEAVY SNOW AT TIMES...WITH LOCALIZED RATES UPWARDS OF 3 INCHES PER HOUR AND LOW VISIBILITIES THIS EVENING. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0055.html Hell yeah.
