But damn, I never much liked these all-to-subtle color transitions, especially on the snow maps! My old(er) eyes have a hard time discerning those tight gradient transitions from the light blues to light purples, then darker purples, then pink!! LOL!!

NorthArlington101 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Rates are never that good in this region. Usually 10:1 at best. It’s never worth gambling on, but I’d assume we do better than 10:1 in the CCB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PivotPoint Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Watching the eagles game so focus is elsewhere. But SOLID gfs run. Hoping this holds! Gfs has been pretty steady along with the euro. Not trending badly at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course each one of those stupid shades could be a six inch contour so we could be looking at a range of 0 to 1000”. Who knows.

Maybe continue giving ensembles weight up to say, nearly 48 hours before the event (so sometime tomorrow for this event). Then almost exclusively deterministic thereafter. At least that's what I've gotten from what most have said over the past couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be true, but unless you are measuring every six hours and melting the snow to get liquid equivalent, you have no idea what ratios you usually get. That said, if you are that informed about local climo, then you don't even need a snow map. I don't look at snow maps for my place at 1600' in Northern NH.

I’d say this 18Z Eps is the last run I’d weight as high as the Op. I’ve been saying 0z tonight is my benchmark and we look in tentatively good shape. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
