Ralph Wiggum Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Following this winters' tendencies, Mid Atl getting hammered currently with many reports of 1-2"/hr. We ure under a wall called the Mason Dixon line fighting this strong HP and low dews. Hopefully some of that banding can get here before it either flips later or before it breaks apart like the hrrr and others show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Mid Atl region getting another positive bust for them. Many reports exceeding model output already. Heaviest banding seems to have dropped South at the last minute again. After this season I dont want to see another post about how all winter storms tick N and W at the last minute. This season was like a bad episode of mythbusters for us. Will be happy to see some accums anyway here today that always a win. Plus schools are closed and kids are home. Happy snow day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just going off guidance and the mid level surge which looks to mean business. These setups generally flip sooner than forecast but again who knows for sure? I am going off the short range hires skew-t data and subtracting an hour since the trend has been to speed things up over the last 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
