Bob Chill Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Looking at the upper levels and surface plots, this run was really close to getting good coastal action up into DC. One more little bump and...well...you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Can someone post 6z euro QPF so we can compare? It might have been posted but I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean 5"+ for everything that borders DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ers-wxman1 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Euro showing a dual jet structure. Interesting if it’s correct. WAA thump and maybe just maybe a bit more from the coastal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked the 12z suite. Much of the snowfall is uncomplicated. Complicated stuff could boost things but at the very least a very good (and cold) event is on tap.

Yes, more transfer to the coastal. They always trend this way. although if you look at radar right now it's probably not enough to pull off a miracle.

Everything looked awful for days. Would you have forecasted 4-8” given that elongated sheared mess that was simulated? Interesting developments, let’s see if it continues.

I hated people saying they would love 1-2 after a crazy number of hours tracking the storm Some of the typical MA climo trends are breaking in our favor. One of the things that's helping is the same stronger confluence that cut totals in PA northward is working to maximize the waa piece here. There could be an W-E oriented band (or bands) set up during that. I'm like 100% sure one of them will be along the northern tier. DCA is in an unusually good spot though. Nice to see DC and NOVA near the qpf max on most guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caviman2201 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 One would think LWX has to put up an area-wide WWA soon... maybe after 18Z guidance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyphnx Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 New EURO actually has about 4-6" of snow depth in RIC. Seems like an increase to me. Maybe the mixing won't be as bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Lucker from New Hampshire where Im close to 45" on the season. Good luck down there. Just looking at upcoming temps after the storm and whatever falls stays on the ground for you to enjoy for quite some time. 10-15F overnight lows in the Balt/DC area will make it feel like deep winter. Good luck and enjoy. (Although Southern New Englanders meltdown as yet another miss) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Love seeing the Ukie and Euro swing the .5 line up over my area. All along I felt like this was going to be one of those region wide 3-6 type deals. I may end up busting low on that number. Maybe a 4-8 event instead.
