jacindc Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I need to drive back from north Florida, and was originally planning to go to somewhere in North Carolina on Tuesday and then come into DC on Wednesday morning. Now wondering if I should shift that a day, doing Monday/Tuesday instead. (Not a big fan of being on I-95 between Richmond and DC in any sort of questionable weather.)

I would keep checking back here for updates! Seems like this one has some elements that give it "surprise" potential...but not sure if that'll be clear for the next few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurojosh Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 That's not not promising... Edit: I'm not saying it's promising either. Just not unpromising. 2nd edit: Not a deep enough LP to do damage, but looks like a decent backside snowfall - am guessing around .1, maybe a little more.

A 1009mb low in the middle of the Polar Vortex. Pretty interesting. There must be a strong SE flow somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Icon illustrates how unusual this arctic front is. It crawls across our area as everything tilts around the tpv. Similar to the euro with a wave of low pressure. I think the gfs is probably wrong and will likely be another boring fropa. Leads are getting short enough to trust the euro the most and now seeing the icon come around builds confidence. Wobbles and shifts are likely but the idea of a wave running along the front is becoming more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
