RedSky Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 New and improved GFS with bugs like Russian spacecraft nice low placement over Hatteras exiting NE that's snow for most of us regardless what it shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick question, is the nudge south seen on some guidance coming from supression via the upper atmosphere or is something else driving that? If so, does that limit the systems ability to strengthen at our latitude? Or am I barking up the wrong tree entirely, again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Things look flatter and colder. Good. I don't need a 10"+ storm. Just a 4-6" ALL SNOW event will suffice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 Colder runs all around in SE PA. Saw a slight increase in sleet at 6z right along the fall line so any snow maps should be viewed with caution. Also saw a notable increase in forward speed keeping the system progressive and moving it thru faster. I will gladly take that tradeoff tho as this is the better look I was talking about for those immediately to the W side of I95. Prevents the system from amping and warming. Less qpf but more frozen. I95 setting up as our demarcation between r/s with some sleet sandwiched in the middle. Looks like NW burbs are in the crosshairs for a significant event.

ChasingFlakes Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I dont know what thread to put this in, the March 1st or March 3rd event, because really it's that March 2nd event I'm talking about. The 6z 3k NAM is looking pretty good for folks in the NW burbs as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 March snow is truly only good if it comes with death band rates and is followed by near record cold for a few days to counter balance the nuclear sun this meets the criteria if it holds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like Colorado's typical spring snow has been transplanted to the east coast. Must be all sorts of convective feedback or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood, but those rates in these instances usually equate to cooling to column to all snow or just rain. Even the models don’t print out much chance of sleet to be honest if you look at the thermals. It’s warm at 850 and barely below freezing at the surface. That doesn’t sound like sleet to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
