I know I haven’t posted in here much in the past year, but there used to be some good analysis and debates, now it just seems like a wish cast for snow and trying to hug all the models that give the most snow vs not relying so much on the guidance and more toward the actual synoptic features in play. What happened to all the key posters in here? A majority of of us have been completely starved of snow the last couple years. Analysis is fine and all, but when you've been fighting for scraps for 1000 days, you start thinking that a steaming pile of sh*t looks appetizing. Besides, most of us don't really know all that much about the science behind it - we're just fans of fun weather. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The surrounding landscape will certainly give it a very wintry feel. Back in the day, Liberty was known as Charnita, if I recall correctly. But I drank more at that time.

That is a decent spot, I am hoping. I know a good bit about the area. Let me know if you have any questions. It’s a great spot for this one. Couple of good places to grab a bite nearby as well.

The biggest factor for me is the 500mb pattern. It’s vigorous but it’s progressive, not cutoff, and not much phasing at our latitude. That won’t drive the cold air in, high retreats so source is gone. My hunch/guess on that is we don’t score like we want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seems like we’d probably get a few inches on the front? Then lots of sleet, then a couple inches at the end. Sign me up. Stuck in a meeting, but the big win from the euro run is that the changeover in my neck of the woods is ~3pm and after 0.3”+ of qpf. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 On the 12z Euro, as the low pulls away it flips even the US 50 corridor down to about St. Mary's City back to a period of accumulating snow. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still has about a quarter inch of QPF left in the tank as well when that occurs. It’s never great to depend on back end snowfall though, especially with a storm that is riding through a fairly progressive 500 mb pattern. It’s 2020 though, anything can happen in this crazy year!
