Yep we'll have no problem once intensity picks up. I'm originally from coastal RI so unfortunately I have had quite the relationship with dynamic cooling over the years hahahah.

burrel2 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Precip is really blossoming over that warm bubble in Greenville county. I hope the warm bubble being displaced 20 miles to my east doesn't mean my qpf is going to bust on the low-side here too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, fingers crossed! Either way I'm happy. Even with light rates for the next 3 or 4 hours I should manage an inch or two. Not bad at all when 2 days ago I didn't think there was a chance we would get anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should wash out, no pun intended, any time. correlation coefficient on radar is showing the rain area shrinking. 5 minutes ago, burrel2 said: Yea, fingers crossed! Either way I'm happy.

Not bad at all when 2 days ago I didn't think there was a chance we would get anything. yeah...i was going to be happy with a dusting just a day or two ago...which i'm already above that. So everything is bonus from here on out. as for the bolded, that's what i've been thinking here too. models are in really good agreement it should snow here though 9am...maybe 9:30....so should pick up that at least.

Are you looking at temp maps or... The warm bubble is surfaced based. You can really see it best on radar right now. I'm not sure if it's the actual warm air that's creating the lift, or if it's just that the warm bubble is associated with the center axis of the inverted trough and this is why the lift is maximized in this area.
