It's the start of a really warm period, it will be interesting to see if that forward happening blends back to the storm. Cállate Chuck 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a 6 hour period with extremely heavy precip from DC to the PA line and it keeps flipping back and forth and has areas of snow south of areas of sleet. Indicative of a small warm layer that might be overcome by rates. But that 6 hour period is the difference between a minor v major event wrt snow accumulations. It would be high impact either way with ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not. Aren’t we due something to break our way? There is a lot flawed with this setup but one thing we do have is legit cold ahead of it. A lot of the fails recently can be attributed to the lack of that ingredient. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the ICON progression is more believable Canadian has stuck with a progression that would fit your thinking. Check out hour 102. It's night and day different.

LP08 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 I suppose the one thing that's consistent so far on guidance is the surface is frigid. Don't need rates to overcome 33-35 at the surface. I would take a 6hr dynamic system of all types of precip at 28-30 degrees. 1-5" of snow/sleet would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early morning. Wake up drink some coffee and watch the radar light up with some fronto banding. Nothing better. Let’s gooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flips back and forth for a few hours in the precip type plots.

It would be high impact either way with ice. PW has the soundings for CMC... but they don't seem to line up with what the precip type/rate map shows. For example... DCA is 33 and rain on the sounding at 90 that I pull up... but on the precip type/rate it says its supposed to be heavy sleet with the green (rain) close to 100 miles SE of DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
