NorthArlington101 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Quick aside: regardless of its odds of actually happening, should we start a thread for Monday its more clear what is being talked about where? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Wizard Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 5 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: Yup. We're getting into the Euro's wheelhouse. If it trends towards the GFS through Sunday, then man we might have some hope. FWIW, doesn't look like the GFS is warm through Christmas so this snow might stick around for a bit. Agreed, key difference I see is Euro is much weaker with the PNA ridge, which hinders the SW from amplifying as much, causing it to cut west. Hopefully that feature trends toward the GFS. FWIW, 0z EPS looked a bit better than the operational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeesburgWx Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 What is the upper limit on this storm if it does snow? 4-8"? 8-12"? Appears to be a quick mover but the trends here are nice for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 GFS evolution is just textbook for a Mid-Atlantic snowstorm. Gorgeous. Look at how it's trended with the cold push out WEST over the Plains. Follow the 522 or 528 height lines in this gif. That push keeps the primary low from amplifying to our west. It can't get north, so it stays weak until it transfers energy to the coast. THIS IS WHAT WE WANT. This is nearly as important as having cold air in place east of the mountains. 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very doubtful to get a foot of snow out of this. 6-8” maybe but will need cold temps the whole time otherwise it will be more wet and heavy which will have lower totals 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Jason and I will have a post on it coming up. Right now we're playing the probabilities for various accumulations lower than suggested by the eps POPS or GFS as there were lots of different evolutions shown on the ensemble stamps. Plus, we're 4 days out and we live around DC. 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need it to slow down and a bit earlier transfer would help. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want the HP on top of the LP like a hat. Maybe a bit ahead of the LP. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
