5statewx Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 12z Euro certainly looking better at hour 48. Gets precip (.01-.10) to Augusta, GA as opposed to Walterboro SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5statewx Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Costal areas of SC get in on the heavy precip, but that's about all. Really bombs out off the coast. 985mb at 00z Monday (was 990mb at same time last night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TARHEELPROGRAMMER Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Euro seems to be all alone. Which usually means it has found a reason to be. I would not bet against it. A lot of models end up bending to it this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 The idea is the Euro came west with precip into SC. Still good signs. ensembles I bet will look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLweather Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hey WeatherNC Whats your thoughts on the the variance of the models @ h5? For the most part h5 varies among the models with various outcomes. One thing though Ive notice is the UL shows alott unconsoldated energy. But looking at WV alot of NS energy is flooding into this system. Its still positive trough axis but wouldnt take much for this to go neutral or neg over TX/LA. What you think about the possibility of this actually having more consolidated energy closing off earlier and staying closed off with the possibly of a pivot point throwing precip further inland?

RTPGiants Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 This is about the time last storm that the NAM started leading the way. Everyone was keen to ignore it and then in the "lessons learned" thread people looked back at it. As we're within 48+ hours, wouldn't it be prudent to start laying weight on it and other hi-res short distance models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was keen to ignore it and then in the "lessons learned" thread people looked back at it. As we're within 48+ hours, wouldn't it be prudent to start laying weight on it and other hi-res short distance models? That was primarily for mixing issues. The NAM and RGEM nailed that. I would weigh the Euro/UKMET more heavily for low placement and track. Right now, only good for coastal sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Euro doesn't look good, but most of the other models keep trending more and more west. Potential is there for this to be a dud or a big storm. It could go either way. But I think it is favorable seeing most of the models continue the west trend on each run.

griteater Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 It's also all by itself in being that far east, still.

POWERSTROKE Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Frying Pan Tower is the place to be! After reading about that yesterday (thanks to whoever posted that), now I want to go! Richard may have a foot on the helipad after this. Then again, he may have a temp issue 34 miles out to sea. Lol. I see nothing but dynamics at play here. Get under the banding get a few inches. Outside of that there just isnt a sustainable cold source for the rest of us to the NW. If the track comes NW, so does the 850's. Good time to water in some pre-emergent though! yep put out a bunch this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldman75 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Haven't seen the euro temps so I don't know if they support snow along the coast with all the heavy qpf, but if it doesn't, I'd rather see it move west and dump on Columbia than just a heavy cold rain on the coast. Gefs seems to think it's cold enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As is the case with every single storm we follow from multiple days out. So, the interval of convergence is negative infinity to positive infinity, huh? You don't say.

Snow haven Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I see Florence to MYB is still looking good yea I am to the north of Florence right over the NC/SC border in Richmond Co. pulling for the NW trend but also worried about temps here with the ground being so warm. temps were forecast to be 37 last night it only got to 43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Mets are showing temps well into the 40s/low 50s on Sunday... curious where the difference in temps are coming from.. The upper level low track, dynamics. Heavy precip with a colder column of air aloft would lead to a rapid cool-down. On November 1st 2014, we went from 40F or even higher in spots, to 31F and heavy snow due to an upper level low. As soon as the upper low moved away ending heavy precipitation from the area, it warmed back up and quickly melted. Edit: I would like to note, that such a dramatic drop of 10F in 45 minutes or less like that example is not at all common, and won't happen around these parts again for a very very long time. The idea is the same though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherNC Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Based on the cold pool aloft you want to be on the left side of the H5 for the best chance of changing over to snow. For us up here in the northern Coastal Plain, our thermal profile is warmer than SE SC. Still some time, giving the ball to the NAM and RGEM at this point, big 3 ops should not be that different but I would think the higher res mesoscale models will handle the intricacies a little better. Left turn over the FL Panhandle is what we would like up here, guys to our south this is pretty good as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left turn over the FL Panhandle is what we would like up here, guys to our south this is pretty good as is. Further inland for Columbia & Charlotte have enough wiggle room to see quite a shift West with the heavier precipitation/low track.. but that would honestly ruin it for the coast. It's going to be a bit hard to get a snowstorm for those two areas (CLT/CAE) with less than heavy precipitation. There are a lot of factors in this, and I agree the short range should handle the upper levels better as we approach the event. Keyword. Should. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
