I don’t think anybody trusts the models. But it’s the only tool we have for forecasting. Without the models we’d just be guessing. And right now all the models do is provide us with a slightly better guess. But let’s be honest.

False alarm? It was a longshot crappy setup.

I am only talking about 991 low in the GOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Light snow breaking out at H240 of the Euro with a low in the SE. Hopefully the EPS bites too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am only talking about 991 low in the GOM I still strongly beleive we're going to get some snowfall within 2 weeks. I'm not posting much because overnight everyone just jumped in head first and assumed things are going to break down with the quickness. The irony is the same models that have been fooling us with d10-15 looks that have barely verified once are now reliable and make complete sense that everything is doomed. I'm not sold one bit that things fall to pieces. If they do i beleive it will be temporary at worst. We'll see who's right here shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone realizes that. Just pointing out that the Nam's aren't the only model that have something frozen showing up tomorrow in the area. Nothing of consequence.

I'll go back to my earlier post and say that while it's still most likely that this will have no impact (either due to no precip or warm temps), ground temps are extremely cold, so light rain falling at 35 degrees tomorrow could cause some icy surfaces. We've see this happen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Snow Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 All 12z ops...gfs, euro, jma, gem, fv3, and icon have a coastal storm next Tuesday night and/or Wednesday. Still a long way off but it’s a signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've see this happen before. Yep, happened here last year. Temp was almost 40 with rain, nothing on the cars, decks, mailboxes. BUT the ground was froze solid a good 1/4 inch!

LP08 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I would say there is some mild interest in a storm in the deep south moving towards day 10 on the EPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Actually am getting somewhat interested in the roughly Tues/Wed time period next week after looking at the EPS. Getting a much deeper drop of the pv in a somewhat favorable location for our region. The setup IMO is starting to scream big east coast storm and it is inside of 7 days.

Nice shift and h5 looks more conducive for a sizable storm Just one run and the GEFS isn't really on board so let's see where it goes. But I admit that it did get my attention. Best part is, we won't have to wait long to know if there is any play in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 18Z GFS looks pretty good for next Tuesday. Follow up wave that might actually work. Verbatim temp issues in DC but still a long ways out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
