MillvilleWx Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 My general thought hasn't really wavered at all with the setup, but I will wait for the Euro this afternoon before putting out a first call and final call early tomorrow morning. In all honesty, I really like LWX snowfall graphic, but I would add a few adjustments in terms of orographic favored areas. There is definitely boom/bust potential with this one, but I think we're beginning to see a greater boom potential compared to a bust. This shortwave was able to generate a fair amount of precip out this way and greater than most guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is any pingers they would be east of the fall line/95 is my guess but I don't think its an issue either until maybe Caroline County. 19 minutes ago, Bob Chill said: EZF is almost certainly not going to mix. I wouldn't worry about that. It's possible but even if the mix line approaches you'll make up for it with bigger QPF. Thank you both for the info, hopefully we all cash in with a very nice storm area wide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Everyone should look at SW OH and the sig bump in qpf on the ukie. As this storm progresses, ops keep bumping up the qpf in the waa piece. It's continuing. Of course we have to deal with the lee side of the apps and such but there has been a universal trend in the midwest/oh valley to increase QPF as leads shorten. We're next at 18z and 0z tonight... hopefully... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That appears to be an acceptable QPF distribution with the maxima in the appropriate and expected location based on the latest meso output.

Eskimo Joe Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Looks like LWX just nudges POPs for Saturday night to 100% all the way to the Mason Dixon line. I believe it was only 80% or 90% last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
