high risk Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 1 hour ago, losetoa6 said: The WRF is showing the best Frontogenesis per TT which makes sense since it's the wettest followed by Rgem . Nam not much fgen. can you please be more specific when identifying the 'WRF'? Since you're referring to TT, I assume you're talking about one of the three hires windows, labeled as WRF-ARW, WRF-ARW2, and WRF-NMM (which should be labeled NMMB, but that's another issue).

Ridiculously cold grounds plus cold air temps could create a nice snow globe. You really can't hate that despite all of the doom in the LR we still snow i usally dont get excited for events like this but seeing snow with temps in the teens is very upper midwest. I am excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't really seen this much agreement this far out in time at all this year except for early Dec. A zillion things still have to happen first so tempered enthusiasm is the max I'll bite. Would be nice to have wiggle room for a bad track. Need cold behind the front next week to settle in and not slide out into the atl. Something to watch as we prepare for 50s and 60s (I'm honestly looking very forward to some warm days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is funny...but its also annoying that some people can't seem to handle two running thoughts at the same time. Saying something negative about the pattern in general for the second half of February doesn't necessarily mean anything bad for a specific threat. At the same time...the people that don't want to look past it are annoying because no matter how good that day 10 threat looks it can and probably will miss...just the odds say that, and so we want as long a favorable window as possible with as many threats as possible to increase our chances to get snow.

snowmagnet Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I’m trying to get a handle on what’s possibly coming down the pike after our February thaw. I’ve seen maps for Feb 8th, 11th, and 14th. Is there any support from the Euro or is it just the GFS abs fv3 showing some coastal activity down the road?

Nearly half of the member suite show meaningful snow between the 9th-12th. This far out in time there will always be large spread with all guidance so don't expect consensus to develop for probably 5 days or so. The period looks good on paper and ensemble guidance show's there some potential. That's all you can say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EPS is hinting at a possible storm in that time period also. GEFS keeps upping the percentage of hits...12z GEFS is up to 10/20 members that give the DC area a borderline Warning or better level event. The mean didn't increase because a couple of massive hits that were skewing came off but the percentage with good snow increased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Just throwing it out there because the gfs and Fv3 have shown some sort of anafront potential around the 8th. Euro is close. A little too late with the cold but being 9 days away and an op run means nothing can be taken seriously. Just throwing out ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I think this was reported here in one of the threads, but not sure which one. Always thought the GEFS did well with the HL and new trends, but I am still surprised by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
