The wave 2 we were talking about on the 12z run is practically nonexistent on the 18z. Regardless, the axis of heavy precip moved NW some, but 850s and 700s only gave in a little. It's actually wetter for the initial thump for IAD and points NW I believe, it's just that it lost the ~.2-.3" qpf that came from wave 2. 18z has been wonky the past 2 days, not that I'm too certain about anything in regards to off hour runs. Expand It's probably 800-850 that is worrisome...higher up and lower down in the column is safe for DCA. Even 850 temps peak at 0. Now we know there is probably a +1 warm nose somewhere....but it doesnt look like a sleetfest for the cities ala nam... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 There's been a last minute trend for drier and deamplification within HR36 this winter. I'm hoping the 18z Euro isn't sniffing out a trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
