Blizzard of 93 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The 0z EPS was fantastic again & the 6z NAM also says good morning to CTP! Again, if you cut these numbers in half or more, I think most of us would be very happy with this first event of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasnownut Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 Wow. Gotta say trends are looking good for a sizeable start to winter. 6z GFS continues to show the cold holding a little stronger, although still not convinced its enough down here, i'd say the ridge and valley regions look mostly/all frozen. Euro that blizz posted looks high end and if ever I want to call it king....this could be the time. Critical thickness just is too far north/west for me to see this, but its close enough that dynamics can help overcome the marginal column (MBY) Will be a fun day. Cant wait to hear all of the complaining at the office.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 WNEP 16 is being EXTREMELY bullish with their forecast this morning. Double digits for all. Not sure I buy it, but these guys are usually quite conservative, so not sure what they're seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 WSW is out for Central part of the state even down to the Mason Dixon. I expect to see some legit 8-12" totals at this point...even in the western part of the LSV. It is the Eskimo Joe Snow Storm of 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I miss @heavy_wx and his analysis in here. I never understood a word he said but i could always tell when we were getting the goods. Random guess: LNS: 2.5" MDT: 3.1" Canderson/Sauss: 4" Blizzard of 93: 4.5" UNV: 6" MAG: 7" Williamsport: 7.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 CTP had MDT at 2-4”. That’s aggressive from then, keeping up the trend of conservative forecasters pushing all chips in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd throw an 8" on his location as i think poconos and surrounding areas at elevation will spit out some good accum totals as well as they hold onto best position for CAD coupled w/ lift.

I think 8" of so is probably gonna be about the max with this baby...it really looks like about an 8 hour storm give or take followed by some drizzle. There just won't be enough time for amounts to get much above that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I know you guys are kidding and take it all as good fun. If Snedeker is right, though, I just might see that 10 inch total...lol Seriously though, my feeling and thinking is 3-6 at best for my backyard. If we stayed all snow, double digits might be possible, but I think we flip at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 6 minutes ago, Voyager said: 12z NAM has a MASSIVE dryslot for southeastern PA @ hour 36... Dry slotting was mentioned in this morning’s CTP disco as a potential limiter along with the uncertainty in p-types. It’s def something to keep an eye on especially in eastern PA given the surface running tightly up the coastline. Storm evolution actually progged as a more Miller B type evolution.. thus the initial front running shot of moderate-hvy precip and potential slot as the lows transfer. There will then be a deform band that forms as the coastal low takes over and the aforementioned tight track up the coastline would favor the deform further back in the central counties. The damage could already be done up front though in the Sus valley as we will have supported cold air in place and I think we will have a robust front end that should wet bulb into a primarily frozen first part of the storm. If the coastal low track ends up being somewhat off the coast, then that deform might focus more towards the Sus Valley. So ultimately I think our whole region is pretty well locked into our first sizeable winter event of the season incoming (at least advisory worthy). The degree of mixing plus eventual storm evolution and positioning of the deform band as the coastal takes over will determine if and where we see a much more significant impact. The potential is definitely there for a corridor in our region to get ripped with a big snowstorm. Some similarities to Nov 14-15, 1995... State College had 15” from that storm. I think the difference at least looking at the reanalysis maps is that one looked to be more of a pure coastal storm and perhaps was a bit colder.

canderson Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Honestly, I put all my money on deform bands hitting within 10 miles of MDT. It seems the past 6 or 7 years we are deform band kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you stated, dryslot is and has been part of the equation. Wraparound/deformation will likely pad totals from front end thumpage. but to Voyagers point, dryslots are storm killers....especially in southern tier.

From past experiences IMOBY, by the time the deform swings through, the storm is too far north and if we catch some of it, it's not much of a help.
