He said it’s a bad pattern the next 2 weeks not just for the mid Atlantic but northeast and New England too. Forget the fact the northeast is getting a snow/ice storm NOW. I don’t know where the couple of threats day 7-9 and 11-12 are going to hit. Some runs go south. They could shift north. But there is a limit to how far north. I would say this storm now is kind of the northern bound to where those go if the trough amplified too far west again. I find it extremely unlikely that no one in the east all the way to New England gets no snow the next 2 weeks...even ignoring the snow falling now. Lol He cant seem to be objective at times- gets too emotional when the pattern has potential but he thinks his yard is gonna get skunked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayyy Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Dark sky showing 3-6” of snow Sunday night into Monday (upcoming weekend) I never pay attention to the amounts that far out 17th-22nd looks to be an interesting period with the potential for back to back winter storms in the Mid Atlantic / northeast.

Play it safe. Psu and myself strongly believe we are heading towards good potential. You know the game though. Potential is def no guarantee. Hold off until something real is happening in the med range. If a real threat is holding on guidance later this week then it's time to get excited.

Ralph Wiggum Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Watching the new DT video...interesting. Pretty much bashes non meteorologists saying those not in the field that are calling for stormy and cold pattern is East dont know science and will fail miserably. Wow he really put his neck out there with that one. Eta: talks about the EPS extended and says how the pattern gets progressively worse. Points out a muted SE Ridge while fast forwarding over HL that look really good. Hammering home Seattle snows and no end in sight with Seattle snows and midwest blizzards. "Locked in pattern"...."east coast rain "...."Twitter freaks"...."no no no". One of the camps is going to be severely incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both can work and both can fail. I prefer faster either way. We're not at that level of detail yet unfortunately. If it looks like confluence is pressing more than we think right now then we want one piece that can bully things. If we're riding the line then 2 might be better. Very hard to say which one is better because we don't clearly know how heights are going to set up in the wake of the next storm that tracks west.

Now if March 11th we are still chasing then stick a fork in it. what part of Richmond are you in? looks like a fairly tight gradient for RA/SN line...which is probably almost always the case down there.

Lower. In Chesterfield. It's always that fine line. We got about 13" on 12/9. I would like one more day to sit at home drinking bourbon without having to worry about going out.

frd Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Sometimes Judah posts a GFS map and says, wow a lot of snow coming, but most times to me it is focused more North of us. Today he posted this and it looks like one of the more impressive in terms of both cold temps, and snowfall potential forecasts this winter.

I'm mostly just happy that we seem to be moving towards a regime change that allows some wiggleroom. With the big rubber band going on between the trough in the west and SE ridge we need everything to break perfect. Break that cycle and we can have longer windows and more ways to get something to work. How long does the "good period" last? Hard to say but could be the rest of the month or maybe longer. We generally need longer windows to get a good event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve25 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 DT has what my friend and I like to call Post Traumatic Weather Disorder(PTWD). He allows his emotions regarding bad recent forecasts/storms to blur his view of the future. I think he's very intelligent and can analyze a pattern with the best of them but his personality is very unsettling and impacts the quality of his work. He's also the one guy that will do a big write up about how horrible a pattern is and then 2 days later will post a model showing a big snowfall result lol. He's a mess. Can't follow his craziness.
