Jebman Posted January 15, 2024 Share Posted January 15, 2024 Hell of a lot of snow coming up from the west southwest. It's high time they upped totals. NWS should issue outright Winter Storm Warnings. Fvck the models, use your EYES, nws for krise sake! Mid Atlantic is about to get pummeled by serious snow rates! I'm a goin out on a limb here. I know this son of a biotch is rotten and its cracking right now and I am one heavy son of a bytch for drinking too many IPAs, but I say NWS issue WSWs for 5-7 inches. The branch is breaking but I know how to fall, I fell lots of times on the damn ice trying to dance like Michael Jackson because I was so happy during an EPIC ice jebwalk! Just Do It, NWS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted January 15, 2024 Share Posted January 15, 2024 Little more aggressive on the backside too… still has a fair bit of us in FRZA rather than snow though NAM would be a decent icing event - glaciate our 2-4” with a tenth an inch of ice Honestly pretty big shift for so close to game time 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetbulbs88 Posted January 15, 2024 Share Posted January 15, 2024 What's your go-to radar site? Nothing does the trick for me. Closest thing to acceptable is this cod map, but not enough perspective for my liking. NWS is just god-awful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillvilleWx Posted January 15, 2024 Share Posted January 15, 2024 This is a reminder to pay zero attention to the HRRR for this storm unless it really gains a clue. It is off immensely at this point to where a certified meteorologist is not following it at all. It has been wrong the entire event so far. It had ZERO snow north of the Potomac for much of last night and didn’t have any until late runs as it was already happening. It has no snow in the area right now and we know for a fact it is dead wrong. Don’t bother. NBM is also too low on snow right now and it is because of the HRRR factor into the forecast. NAM Nest is doing a formidable job at the moment. Obs show a nice start and the best ascent is still to our south. Good stuff not till later. Enjoy and just watch it fall. Models be damned. 21 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you think of the latest NAM Nest, if you don’t mind me asking? Looked to be a decent (and sorta dramatic, at range) shift towards getting us impacts from the coastal. Do you buy that it would be FRZA for the metro if we get any coastal sloppy seconds? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No blades of grass visible = 2 inches of snow. Not exactly scientifically sound measuring, but works for my yard. My grass is still poking out so I’m at bruesters overbuying half gallons of ice cream to help drive their sales today. We are doing milkshakes once the school caves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking that the NAM has had this cold. Many here continue to blast that model, when this is far from the first time that it's carried the day. Yes, it's streaky, but it's still often a better short-range model than the globals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been fairly steady so far with the handling of everything, so it might have some merit. Areas along and SE of 95 would have a shot at mixing if the coastal formed close to the coast. Just a nature of the flow between 925-800mb advecting warm air. Ocean temps are above normal right now as should be the case, so it would promote better warm component being ushered in within the BL. Those NW of 95 should be fine. It’ll be close imo for the district and surrounds, that’s if the guidance has the handle of the coastal enhancement correctly. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they'll think twice about burying the NAM. I haven't looked at the models today. Between working (if you can call it that) and watching the snowfall outside with a hot chocolate... it's nice to take winter all in at my new house. It's been a minute. Bigger flakes, legit light snow, despite what the radar says. Moisture feed from Alabama/TN looks juicy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Millville. Just take a look at what is coming up from the WSW on any radar you care to use. WSW is warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
