Meso models can go off on tangents due to their intense resolution. Now that the storm actually has a good circulation, we'll see mesos hone in on the mids. They’ll have it nailed down by this time tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 If you put your really big weenie hat on you can draw some very slight similarities to the 2014 all snow west track. Might have been 2015. Worst track and high placement ever for an all snow event. There's a chance 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowmagnet Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Is there any chance of this being like the mid-January 2000 surprise that didn’t change to rain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much none, but I think a longer period of ZR is possible for areas NW of the Piedmont. Rates may prevent high accretion, but temps staying at or below freezing could definitely occur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air is damn cold for our area so pretty dense dome to push out of here. More often than not, surface hangs longer than expected in these setups.

paxpatriot Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I know I’m being trolled when the NAM says that everyone north, south, east, and west of me gets more snow. It’s warmed to a balmy 12/3 here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 6 hours ago, MN Transplant said: I’ll leave the snowfall map to others, but the 06z NAM nest is similar to prior. Lose the column at 5pm after 0.15” precip in DC, lose the surface at 7pm after an additional 0.15” frozen. Oh, NAM. 12z is snow through ~6pm with about 0.3" precip in DC and frozen through ~8pm with another 0.2". So, not only a later changeover, but more precip early. And in Minnesota - Climax is very close to Fertile and up the road from Moorhead. So, yeah. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As part of the infrastructure bill we need a seawall built from NC to Ocean City up to the 850 level. That should do it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I stop mainly because of the name! Interesting history, actually. That town basically invented the drive thru back in 1870! “The community of Tightsqueeze got its name due to the construction of two buildings close to a road that connected Chatham and Danville during the 19th century. In 1870, W. H. Colbert built his general store close enough to the road that women could go straight from their carriages to the store without getting muddy or dusty. Soon, another merchant, Isaiah Giles, built a blacksmith-wheelwright shop directly across the road from the general store. It, too, was on the road's edge. Due to the closeness of the two buildings, buggies and wagons had to slow down as they passed between the two buildings. Thus, individuals were told to slow down for the "tight squeeze" where the two stores were located.” (from Wikipedia) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
