MillvilleWx Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 NAM still looks okay but it certainly having issues with the surface low along the coast. Been very jumpy from run to run. Probably best to hedge away from using them in order to figure out that aspect of the forecast. As far as WAA snows look, still looks good for the entire area with nothing really changing at this point. Tight northern cutoff in the works, but somewhere near the cutoff there will likely be a convergence zone that develops and leads to some of the better snow ratios and prime dendritic growth. Happened with the Dec storm and areas like 40-50 miles south of DC/NoVa got hit good. We shall see. Heading to bed since I gotta be up and leaving in 7.5 hours. Have a great night! .

Not saying it's bad just not understanding how it's anything but worse Its not as good as 18z. Not debatable. That said, I am not worried. 18z always seems unrealistically jacked for some reason.

This is a large system with a transfer. I really dont trust the nams at all with that scenario. Its not just now and then... the nams jump around do strange things every single storm. 6z will be something new and then 12z and so on. Euro, fv3, ukie, and gfs are pretty steady run over run. I'll stick with those and ignore the nams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised if it backs down from 18z. Kinda expecting it. If it backs down from 12z we have reason to complain but if it's still 2-5" the forecast hasnt really changed in days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
