MDstorm Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Steady light snow this Christmas morning in western Howard County. A coating on top of the trace of snow left over from last week. Nice little surprise. Now let's see what the next 48 hours bring. Merry Christmas, everyone! :snowman: MDstorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Picked up 2.5 inches here in Jonesville,VA last night from the northern disturbance. Very pretty picturesque scene with everything outlined! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 When can we expect a JEBWALK!!! Already been on TWO jebwalks this morning. The thin snowpack looks great; wet roads are breaking my heart. One of the greatest features of a good snowstorm is the image of me walking fast on an epic jebwalk in a frigid, 8 inch per hour blizzard at 4.6 miles per hour whilst motorists are at a standstill for hours. It's the evergreen image of the Jebman walking faster than traffic in a snowstorm, all while strong NE winds pile up drifts on the roadways and I effortlessly stroll through the drifts, earnestly praying for more snow and a faster phase.

Jebman Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Just noticed something later this week - That is, towards new years - Please don't look now but I'd suggest - get out in this snow tomorrow and enjoy it to the full, because bad news lurks on the horizon. Thursday and Friday Dec 30-31 a LOT milder, maybe even milder than climo avgs lurks - and I don't even want to think about what we might face if overnight lows in that timeframe get well above frzg, which they likely shall, between snowpack and additional moisture........... I tremble at what one may find - or not find - up near Greenland on all of the models - in that timeframe. Yeah. I live in the SOUTHERN Mid Atl. This aint New England.

All of the eastern seaboard is in the same boat event (even SNE); but, it looks to reload the block after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr No Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Overrunning is up to ROA, FVX and nearing RIC. I think the snows between CHO and EZF are still part of the first disturbance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathervswife Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Snow has gone from spitty all morning to more of a steady light snow with heavier echos moving up from the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr No Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I think we're mostly in nowcast mode. I don't know how much more insight guidance can give us at this point in... well, maybe the RUC. It all depends on where she bombs... if the bomb occurs as its approaching our latitude, look out. If further north, it's probably no worse than modeled this morning. I also think we can get some bonus snows on the overrunning. Hopefully the convection is undermodeled and that helps to wind the upper energy up sooner near the GOM.

Mesoanalysis is going to be pretty useful too. Take a look at some current maps. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr No Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 It's an unusual winter day out.... not typical to the day before a storm. It seems like almost a summer day before a front passage, but in winter... puffy cumulus (I guess stratocu in this case) under a layer of high clouds.

frostbite_falls Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Anyone got any insight on ratios with this beastie? FWIW I'm NE of Balt near the M/D line--guessing better here than closer to/below the fall line (but don't really have a clue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW I'm NE of Balt near the M/D line--guessing better here than closer to/below the fall line (but don't really have a clue). If we can get into the good omegas, I think we have a shot at great ratios as the temps around 600-650mb will be near -15C. I'd say maybe 10-12:1 as it stands, but if we get the omegas maybe 15-17:1?

Dr No Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 To me the 18Z RUC looks outstanding. Notice the 500mb and 700mb LP closing off to our SW. This would aid in pulling the LP closer to the coast. But, it's the RUC out 18hrs and can be a bit flaky, so we'll see how future runs look.
