The exact outcome ultimately depends to a large extent on the exact timing and strength of the vortex rotating down under the block. Expand Yes. Exactly. The Friday deal is still evolving. It can change to the point where Sunday is a direct hit but a sheared mess with lower totals than the northern fringe stuff the euro just spit out. Or it could hook the coast with the same track as the euro and crush us with deform stuff. Once we get to Thursday, the track envelope will be narrowed down prerty good and we will have a much clearer picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC has way more wiggle room then me here. That doesn't mean I think it goes south just I can see how that could happen. Both the first two march 2014 events were lame up here. We can get fringed. I'm talking about the Sunday storm only. Expand NOW it feels like a chase. We are a good to go on seeing a storm when PSU starts worrying about being fringed. Of course heaviest snowfalls will be to the north and west of the cities with the snow mecca of the Mid-Atlantic (PSUland) jackpotting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderdog Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 There are some really cold temps for March with the Sunday storm. If the temps turn out to be not quite as cold, does that mean that the storm will be positioned a little more north than it is depicted on the EURO? Does suppression in this case mean colder temps?
