Let's hope that the RGEM scores like it did in Feb 15. Thanks man A deep snow cover is in place as your 60th dawns Friday-cold too-the ultimate long live winter kind of day just for you!

Just getting caught up....crazy day. Actually, I was thinking the opposite. Not necessarily that the NAM wasn't amped enough, but that it (and the other models) were underplaying the strength of the shortwave and an amped solution makes sense.

I'm not worried about that yet.....development so often slows at the last moment. I can see this kicking east a bit late in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 What is the deal with Kuchera? Is that a weenie algorithm, or is it viable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viable in the sense that it tries to account for warm layers aloft, but still can suffer by not dampening the ratios enough in sleet soundings.

Steve has the exact details, but it factors in temps aloft though as Oceanwx pointed out, it can be off in its math. It is better than the std though.

OceanStWx Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 The example I keep using is for a warm layer of +1C. The Kuchera method if your max temp aloft is warmer than -2C would say your ratio is 12 + 2*(271.16-MaxTemp) Now a +1C warm layer is most likely sleet. But Kuchera would say 12 + 2*(-3) = 6:1. That's pretty damn high for a sleet ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Ukie out to 36 on plymouth state (not sfc, but other levels)....it looks pretty zonked. I'd expect a big hit when the rest of the maps come out on meteocentre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better than a straight 10:1 for sure, and attempts to factor in temps aloft. But it's never as simple as colder temps aloft mean better ratios, etc. But definitely closer than the alternative clown maps out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 00z suite looks good, even though the NAM shat itself. Gonna start for the next 15 min to see what Ukie does. Confidence on 6" is around 95%. 10" at 65%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb and Kuchera are what I have been using for years and blended have had pretry good results, both are showing on average a 14 or 15 to 1 overall ratio.

Cobb is probably the best of the bunch, seeing as it factors in temps, lift, and RH to an extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, yes....SGZ needs to be fully saturated, and between roughly -16-20C.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
