Well, snow isn't going to help out the swampy conditions any. Snow melts...lol What we need is an extended dry pattern for a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that 5-10" snow weekly until spring. Then bright blue skies to dry things up a tad. Not to much to ask, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Clause Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 2 hours ago, pawatch said: Then we got to start worrying about sun angle. West and Midwest below average temps and record snowfalls. We should be ok with the rainfall we have coming. Wmspt suppose to crest @ 14.5. The problem could be ice jams. River wise we are okay but small streams are pretty elevated.

Pine Creek has some pretty heavy ice on it right now. Not sure about some of the other cricks, ice wise. I agree with you the small streams have a lot of effect on the bigger cricks and river.

FV3 actually took a huge step back from its apocalypse snowfall I saw when I looked at it yesterday but the Euro and GFS both made encouraging changes in keeping the second wave much less phased and allowing a decent 4-8" snow here. Euro's snow maps are a bit strange so not going off those vs. assuming their would be a slug of WAA snow at the start. A better step than the models showing a Midwest blizzard yesterday. This area is golden for a plowable snow if we simply get a slug of moisture thrown over us and do not face winds from the south too quickly.

Flatheadsickness Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 More worthless computers every generation and even more worthless collage educated to run them. We could forecast better in the mid and late 90's. Its like every other media based thing the race to be first and right making wiled guess's with a computer has destroyed the integrity and accuracy of everything.

Blizzard of 93 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 The 18z GFS &18z GEFS say that we should get our snow shovels ready beginning next Tuesday. The 18z GEFS is the full 16 day run. That looks like multiple snow threats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll make my deal with the mud devil in the spring. For me freeze it up tight and we’ll worry about that later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 Some thoughts on the overnight runs.. Models are seemingly starting to zero in on a cutting storm Tuesday that will have a high pressure placed to the north sufficient for at least initial wintry precipitation. Interesting thing about this setup is the parent low is being progged to cut up so far west that it may in fact help our cold air damming situation. The parent low moves into the western lakes region, stacks/matures and then we start seeing some secondary development on the coast. With the 0z suite, GFS has a stronger surface high to the north but the European has much colder temps aloft at 850 and esp 925mb, implying an extended snow-mix scenario for a large portion of C-PA. Both models put down a fair amount of frozen up front. This potential storm setup reminds me a bit of Dec 2009. Not that Dec 2009 (the 20th Mid-Atlantic bomb) but Dec 9, 2009. Similar setup, low to Wisconsin/western lakes region and weak secondary off the Mid-Atlantic. That one put down 6+ up front in places like UNV.

Anyone out there? 45 and foggy makes for a slow forum I guess! I personally was not a big fan of the model trends yesterday afternoon and evening. Almost all guidance is converging on the second wave amping up in the Midwest which to me takes a large snow/MECS out of the equation as we are back down to CAD only. I think anything from a 4-6" event before the temps rise well above freezing to dry-slot and little precip at all is still on the table. Very similar to a few of our events we had in the last few months. FV3 and GFS are 2-4" before a deluge and temps rising between 35 and 45 LSV. There are still hold outs showing a MECS type now situation such as the UKMET shown below. This same situation is going to play out several times over the next 2 weeks and some models have lots of snow (GFS) while others have lots of rain (EURO and FV3). Welcome to the gradient wars.
