A couple lake enhanced snow bands is not out of the question today and tonight. So my 8.7” call still has a chance to verify. Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj3 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Looks like the trend for Sunday is less phasing and more late blooming coastal. Either way it looks frigid for Sunday night-Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahoff Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Euro looks to have screwed us on the 12z for Sunday, and pulls the really cold air away. Just regular cold now. Boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boring. Was just going to post something about this. GFS still wants to bring the cold and keep it around for a while, but the Eruo is showing 26° warmer tuesday morning than what is showed yesterday at this time.

It closes off too late (compared to yesterday) and doesn’t have an expansive shield. But the players are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty decent low placement, hopefully produces for us, because the cold is definitely there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Develop the pattern first and then see what happens. MJO going into phase 8 is huge and usually means a snowy and cold eastern US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantees a decent pattern delivers and if it does that any one area will get a big storm. I still think the window for a Sunday timeframe storm is still open, models still have A storm, just most slide it South. Wouldn't shock me to see it pop back up in the next couple days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are correct. Definitely still early, and really the storm can only come north. I’d love to see an overrunning event with this really cold air coming up. It would be amazing.

So my 8.7” call still has a chance to verify. Lol Final official total was 8.5”. Felt like less in most places due to long duration and compacting - but NWS does a good job counting every inch properly. Credit on their forecast too. This was a pain, but 6-8” over 48 hours was a good call. (if we catch a band later, not sure we can count it ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm not saying any one outcome is more likely but I think we have all seen the models lose a storm in the mid range only to bring it back a few days later. Even if it fails looks like several chances to roll the dice coming up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I see a lot of bigger totals locally but I didn't measure anywhere near that much. Either unlucky or I screwed up. Looking ahead ... The weekend storm might get squashed under the confluence. It would actually make more sense for a bigger storm to hit while the pattern relaxes prior to reloading. That would favor something closer to Valentine's Day. I count at least six events on the GFS over the next two weeks. Plenty of chances for any one of them to do something interesting. In pattern terms, this is almost as good as it gets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
