NorthArlington101 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Just felt like tossing in the EURO's final stab at it. I'll be curious to see what ends up verifying best. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I got to bed before the 0z NAM wake up around 3. But Yoda is always awake. He really is a Jedi. I am convinced he is the real yoda. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesternFringe Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 28° and snowing here northwest of Staunton. 2 inches so far. Going for another Jeb-ride on my four wheeler. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upper NW near the MD border had snow/sleet on the ground while here we have wet mud. Interesting and only a couple miles difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I am not even convinced DC proper can ice up. It will take extra cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar looks about as bad as modeled--but better than the 0.0" modeled at certain points along the way. Thinking of asking my ex in New York whether we can just be roommates...

Unless there's some surprise coastal bombogenesis methinks Richmond just got a taste of the shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't try and do radar extraps -- not smart enough. I'll let the computers tell me what to think! Anyways... .8" seems like a fair number for my yard.

Anyways... .8" seems like a fair number for my yard Yeah radar extrapolation only works when storms are matured and moisture plumes are fairly predictable. Even then it's an unwieldy tool. Edit: and I'm talking about eyeballed extraps, not the shit tools that they provide on weather.com and whatnot. Speaking of which, it's infinitely annoying that weather.com and Accuweather don't even let you loop anymore--like, as far as I'm concerned, you have to watch the radar morph into their totally useless future extrapolation.

NorthArlington101 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Yellows seem to be approaching. Too bad Blacksburg radar is down... makes it hard to tell what’s coming down the pike. Seems like 2” should be an easy goal. Willed this one back north just enough for MBY. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Best snow of the day right now. Big flakes mixed in with the smaller ones. I'd guess 0.5" an hour rates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
