If I had to guess, the movement on that model would lead me to think more freezing rain. The warm air is deeper on that model than others. So less snow, more FZR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It was but we probably need 1-2 more of those ticks without going backwards. GFS seems to linger the moisture longer as well. ETA: I didn't see hour 78 at that point. I guess the Euro does have some lingering precip as well just seems lighter than the GFS on the back edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I'd say a bit more than a slight tick. Now gets heavier snows (6, 7 inches) into parts of Beaver and Butler Counties. Not quite up to the GFS's totals of around a foot. But certainly increases likelihood of a decent snowfall (5"+) for north and west of the city. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Our south ticks are killing the storm. Now looks like a rather pedestrian snow event (7-10 inches) for most of northern Ohio and western New York. Maybe a few lollipops up to a foot in the favored areas with a bit of lake/orographic enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 At this point, I'm just hoping the models are under-developing surface warmth. Looking at the NAM, for example, we'd be talking about significant icing. The kind of ice that threatens power outages and tree damage, among other things. 12-18" of frozen precipitation and almost none of it is snow. A fairly thick warm layer from 700-850 for most of the duration. Maybe that dryslotting could help cut back precip totals, as well, but pretty much all the models have us approaching 2" of total precip. With snow mostly off the table, I'd rather have plain rain. The lower-res models show more of a sleet bomb. Pretty rare to get measurably accumulating sleet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Those areas aren’t staying in the waves of precip as long due to the slightly more progressive nature. So it was more timing as opposed to system strength. GFS has a chance to be the king here. I feel like others are trending to it more than it’s trending to others. But you still have to be concerned about a tick the wrong way.

But you still have to be concerned about a tick the wrong way. Expand Yeah, you are right. And it's not exactly dry. Still shows 2" of total precipitation nosing into western Allegheny, with a widespread 1.3-1.8" for all of northern Ohio. I'm actually a little bit surprised the snow map is as paltry as it is for those areas (even at 10:1). Must be a bit more mixed precipitation up that way versus the GFS solution.

Expand This is what I thought too, yes the wave is slightly weaker more strung out, but the whole thing is more progressive too, so those areas that were getting hit by both waves had higher totals now there is a larger swath of decent snow. In any event if we have to sacrifice someone else's snow to have an interesting event here I'll throw that baby into the volcano everytime, we have like 8 - 9 months out of the year for plain rain. Give me something wintry over plain rain any day in mid winter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 A boring rainstorm. It’s almost like they set these models up in such a way that they suck us in for a storm we had no business tracking, only to pull the rug out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
