The GFS stalls the 850 warm front over SE MA which is as far SE as I've seen it so far...others are a bit NW but have been trending SE. So I wouldn't be shocked if you were pounding aggregates for several hours being on the NW edge of the sloped front. So much will depend on the lift. It could also be cat paws and mixed pellets for several hours with no accumulation and then 1-2 inches of rain. This is the toughest forecast ever for me, I think.....obviously not the track record that seasoned pros like you have, so a smaller sample...but this is hideous.

Yeah if everything went right, it could be a surprise 6 hour snow bomb with like 1-2" per hour aggregates at times. I obviously wouldn't forecast that...very little accumulation at all is still more likely...but it's not an impossible solution any longer like it might have been if this hadn't trended at all from 36 hours ago.

Already prepared for lower precip and definitely winds, however, I will say the mesos aren't depicting as much of a shadow here as I thought on some of their qpf output. The Rgem actually has a nice heavier band around here and the Euro has had it off and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Gutner had 3-6" and looking at the timing of transition from snow to sleet looked to only be a few hours at best. Nit sure what model he was using, but I didn't get the sense this was borderline warning event except for mtns and NW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Did 0z Euro have a more pronounced warm nose in mid levels in comparsion with 12 Euro data. Seems like Ray and Will touched on 925 temps but 750-825 is what i'm interested in from 4z to 11z tonite for Say NW CT NE to LWM anyone have those charts that Ryan posted yesterday, they were very informative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Thank you Steve would you happen to have yesterday's 12z for LWM ( so i can compare) just trying to see if that warm nose is more pronounced last nite Please and Thanks Just took the Ridge Back out for AM Jog, this dog can not be tired out! edit that looks like a sleet sounding to me by 6z, looks like that 750-825 layer is greater than 1c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 There is literally a model for every solution at this point. If you want snow you can find one with snow, if you want freezing rain you can find one with that, etc. Up here anyway it looks like there are no models showing rain to the mountains anymore. 12z raobs aren't even that enlightening. Models are too cold up here, but too warm in the Southeast where the mid level warmth is originating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Looks marginal to me through 12z....heavy fall rates are snow imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray, have your thoughts changed from what you were thinking last night? I'm holding out a sliver of hope that I might get more than a couple inches on the ground before the pelt fest.

STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 12z nam went a bit north Esp with 5h Low trajectory tommorrow. The difference between its 18z run yesterday and 12z today is sizeable with the 5H low trajectory from 6z to 18z tonite/tmrw That is not ideal for limiting mid level warmth. 18z's 5H low track looked like snow storm This looks like sleet to rain FWIW. And with euro trend of 5H low a bit north last nite i would think a tickle north at 12z is favored. I believe 6z gfs did as well Ray don't know if you noticed that but it seems mid level low tracks slightly have tickled NW since 0z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
