Lol. Frederick County, VA/Winchester about the only people in the subforum without an advisory. Although I am pretty confident we will see snow.

I look at the ICON as a side project. Europe undeniably has the most accurate global wx model in the world. Germans like making fancy techy sciency things and got jealous so they built their own. There are 2 versions. The lower res global version is what we see. The high res icon goes out 4 days and covers Europe. It's regarded as pretty accurate and even more accurate than the ECWMF in the short range. But from a global model perspective, it's 4th behind euro/gfs/cmc. It's certainly good enough to be useful but I'd be hesitant to put it #1 with an east coast snow storm in the short range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 20 minutes ago, Vice-Regent said: Such a smol storm. I feel blessed that it ever happened a real thread the needle type situation. If we go by according to the ICON this will generate incredible frustration. I don't think this is storm mode material but considering the drought of good winter events it should be. Still not a region-wide event? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
