Ian Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 This cold outbreak is looking less cold. Euro has -25C 850s... that's pretty cold. But it is a quick hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Can someone tell me what is causing this radar return in upper moco? I know it's not precip. It's there all the time. Radio tower? Water tower? I've been in the area and don't recall a really tall structure out there but it's the only thing that would make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2O Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 LR is a total messy mess. LOL. Bring it hear and tell us what you really think. i fixed it.

aldie 22 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Euro has -25C 850s... that's pretty cold. But it is a quick hitter. In all honesty I think these patterns and storms that show up on these locked in ensembles...they eventually do happen but hardly ever as advertised...the cold is almost always muted and storm tracks sure do vary in the end. I recognize them as an incredible tool for forecasting...but I'm not sure we are using them the way they are intended or at the very least...those of us listening and reading the translations aren't comprehending that info properly. Information overload is how I see it.Hope nobody gets offended by my opinions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Information overload is how I see it. Hope nobody gets offended by my opinions... I think it is generally true that cold is over modeled at range and tends to be less dramatic in closing. This one has "warmed" slightly in closing.. but from like -29C to -24C... and -24C is nearer the top end of what we see around here these days. So... like the blizzard wasn't the time to rag on DC for having issues dealing with snow this might not be the right one to rag on models for overdoing cold. But we'll see.. could bust I suppose.

wxdude64 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 LOL wtf is going on around here. Do I need to raise the index again? Heck, why not?

midatlanticweather Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Reasoning for potential winter being done if we miss next week! > We warm > Cold MAY return by end of Month > AO/NAO - look to stay positive > We have then 2 weeks really total we COULD get lucky with a storm.. and this has not worked for us up to this point! I think this could be our last real shot honestly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 why do people look forward to cold? what's there to enjoy? I like brutal cold when its the product of a good pattern with favorable chances for a legit snow event. Otherwise its useless. These quick in and out cold shots with rain to follow are the worst.

87storms Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 i feel like tracking another snowstorm. i'm suffering blizzard and yesterday's brief snow globe withdrawal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAsnowlvr82 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Somebody needs to come up with a name for blizzard withdrawal because I have it bad and I think most on here do as well. It's almost worse than if it had never happened. Like the end of a great relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Sun angle is real! Those dates are Nov 5 to Feb 5. 45 days give or take around the solstice. If my memory serves, you gain about a degree of height every ten days up until Feb 5 (obviously not a straight up linear relationship) and then (now) you gain a degree about every 3 days.
