Something was up with that map Yeah dude. The SV map counts sleet/ice as snow. QPF is higher down that way and it counts sleet/ZR as snow - hence the higher totals depicted. Those SV maps are useless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewell2188 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Two more model suites before I think anyone can even begin to accurately predict amounts given how the winter has gone. Not saying anything that I’m sure everyone on here doesn’t already know but this is far from set in stone. I would think bust potential is fairly high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely fear it’s a bit overdone with its somewhat cold bias in the mid levels (not as good at catching warming at 700 as mesos like the NAM are) but a solid overall look.

psuhoffman Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 @CAPE It has the double max thing some guidance shows...the 6" plus area south of DC is from the lead wave Tuesday morning that DC is on the northern fringes of the heavy stuff with...then it runs a second heavy band of precip up in the afternoon and evening but 95 SE is mixy so the heavy snow with that is NW of 95...creating that kinda dead space of 4-6" in between the 6" plus zones. Luckily this time the "dead zone" looks like a local minimum but not the total screw job some recent storms had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that there's even an outside chance of getting close to warning level snows within a vicinity of the metros is pretty impressive here. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The center of the high looks to be around the Mt Royal district of Montreal, just west of McGill University. Ideally, using a composite of all snowstorms, we would rather that be in the Old Montreal district along the river...maybe a block southeast of Notre-Dame Basilica. 3 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took your specific location from 6.5" to 4.5" on the Kuchera so not exactly a HUGE difference...and you are a local minimum between two meso bands which is not likely to be portrayed exactly accurate on a global at 48 hours out. That said yea it was worse and put you in the split zone which given this season I totally get not wanting to see that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These things always seem to go from something simple and workable to convoluted. The good front end thump is perfect for this set up with the legit cold/dry air in place initially. That idea seems all but gone. The regular GFS still has it though. I will probably have to kick it out of bed in a couple hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 12z Pivotal only had you at 6.5" and its about 4.5 on 19z. So yea a trend down...but not as extreme as it seems comparing a liberal 12z map to a conservative 18z one. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaves room for movement either up or down. Where DT fails is he goes all in with big numbers and when that doesnt happen he loses once again. Nice map here though IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
