Jebman Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 1 hour ago, midatlanticweather said: Zone forecast for Purcellville just went to 3 to 5 inches of snow. Seems WAY bullish by NWS. I am thinking 1 to 3 at best! That seems to line up with the LWX Winter maps. Not sure why the Local went so high. Saturday: Rain and snow, becoming all snow after 10am. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 36. Breezy, with a northwest wind 16 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 49 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 3 to 5 inches possible. Be sure to take a long jebwalk and pile that snow way up! Post pics or it never happened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csnavywx Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Presence of a deepening MAUL (moist absolutely unstable layer) on these forecast soundings makes me think the wind gust potential will overperform here. Cold advection powerful enough to produce that usually has no issues in transporting momentum to the surface. Also, the frontal slope gradient is so sharp, it's very possible that ptype flips earlier and stays sleet longer than forecast. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way it shows the sleet is pretty funny, lol. The 10:1 map looks great for you in particular, surprised so little translates to snow depth.

Mid 20s for most by early afternoon Saturday. That seems to be the most notable trend across all models from what I see. Dare I speculate this could sneak its way to an area-wide 2-4" event? In any event, with the wind and temperature drop it's shaping up to feel brutal out starting late morning in the merto areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Looks like almost all sleet here? At least on the WB maps. I’d need someone smarter to look under the hood but that is what it shows the p-type as, yet it also has accumulating snow. I’m assuming it’s doing a bad job of showing the transition - could use those 1hr EURO maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
