I will never again fall prey to HRRR/RAP micromanagement!


Yeah it was a tricky storm to forecast. The Euro/RGEM/NAM also slipped down yesterday evening as emphasis on the easternmost low increased, giving some credence to the HRRR/RAP downtrends.

The big driver of 6+ amounts despite the dominance of the easternmost low was that nearly stationary 700 mb frontogenic band overnight, and while there was evidence for it (CoastalWx's posts yesterday), no guidance had it stationary for so many hours with significant minima north and south.

Had this system consolidated a surface low closer to the vorticity emerging from Virginia, with better conveyor mechanics, totals would have been more uniform and higher across the board.

Wait, you are complaining that you are alone? I haven't been alone in years.

May I recommend...

Drugs?

It was nice for a while, but it gets old after 3 months. And can probably do without drugs as a recovering alcoholic lol

What does Wilmington have?

Funny you say that Ray. Being a long time lurker and enjoying reading you through they years, I though that same thing yesterday. My area always seems to do pretty well, if I could be a bit further to the west and north toward 495 that might be a bit better, but I usually don't have many complaints in this location.

I've been really fortunate in Holliston since moving here. Managed several jackpots/near jackpots. But knowing the area very well I am aware that the worm can turn easily the other way. My cousins grew up here, so I was here a lot as a kid.

Pretty decent bands in metro-west the last hour....not like the PYM stuff, but still solidly moderate to maybe marginally heavy at times
