Buddy1987 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 What is the Canadian seeing that some of the others aren’t in regards to tucking it closer to coast and bringing a snow bomb to southern VA? Is it the time of the N/s wave interacting and influencing the southern stream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming there isn't a south trend and its still looking about as it is now...I wouldn't even totally check out after 0z. God knows we have seen weirder things happen...but after tonight we would be heading into needing a January 2000 and March 2001 type bust territory. It's still close...but I really am not liking the trend in the flow over New England. We need that to relax and it seems like its coming in stronger each run.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 UKMET offers us nothing, low goes from the panhandle of Florida at 72 to halfway between the east coast and Bermuda at 96. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackb979 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Reminder that the disturbance will finally move onshore on the west coast around 3-4am EST tonight/tomorrow morning. I'm not getting my hopes up for a major change to the forecast, but it will be interesting to see if there's any shifts either way once we get some observations fed into the models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, the vort that is currently modeled to push the storm off the SE coast is just now in the area of the Arctic Ocean/Alaska. That area is data sparse. Even satellite data is limited due to the cold temperatures that can interfere with satellite data ingestion. This vort will be the focus.... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 At least it seems the south trend from yesterday has stopped and perhaps we are seeing a slight nudge north now...but all we are doing is getting back to where we were the last few days. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUsedToHateCold Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Like to see the very slight north trends on GFS and FV3, at least we're headed in the right direction. Perhaps the King will follow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichmondTarHeel Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I know using a clown map isn't a good indicator of trends, but to me it looks like it keeps inching North with each run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 On the 12z GEFS individual members FWIW, through hour 120, 8 of the 20 get the 2" line right by DCA Compared to the 06z GEFS individual members through hr 126, 3 of the 20 got the 2" line right by DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowchaser Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 QPF from the 06z Fv2 model run 0.01 in Washington, 12z run 0.09 went from a dusting to around 1 inch QPF 06z Fv2 for Charlottesville 0.27, 12z run 0.47 went from around 3 inches to 5 inches QPF 06z run for Richmond 0.57, 12z run 0.59 snowfall stayed the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It's inching north, but at this rate, it would take until December 15th for it to get any good stuff up to us. We don't have that much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wawarriors4 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 FV-3 is around 2-3" in EZF, seems plausible, but I'm not really confident. Cant wait for the EURO to see if it nudges anything anywhere.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peribonca Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Do you guys think the storm is inching North or is it just the precip shield expanding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
