Let’s go day by day shall we Actually I was all over todays storm, from when models were showing a cutter and rain. I said "It's not going to cut with such a strong -NAO and favorable Pacific pattern". I also noted that the 50/50 low was perfect for this storm.. was one of the first to call it with Ji lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted Monday at 06:11 AM Share Posted Monday at 06:11 AM Euro keeps doing it's thing where it has the southwest vort dig SW for oil. No-phase lookin assIt’s the N branch that trended worse this run. Compare 96 to 18z 102 and look at the northern shortwave. That is the shortwave that drops in on GFS and late on the cmc run. Can be corrected next run hopefully . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted Monday at 06:14 AM Share Posted Monday at 06:14 AM Yeah the NS is pretty clearly different on the more favorable runs versus the bad runs. Not sweating it at all while we have glorious snow falling outside. We'll make sense of next weekend as we bask in our snow out the window tomorrow/Wed and beyond.

jayyy Posted Monday at 07:00 AM Share Posted Monday at 07:00 AM You know the ole weenie adage… let’s get this current storm out of the way first and see how things react downstream afterward. Long way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also noted that the 50/50 low was perfect for this storm.. was one of the first to call it with Ji lol… the pattern looks fine. Doesn’t mean we’ll score necessarily, but the h5 setup is certainly good enough if a few things line up for us. We’ll know a lot more by Wednesday. Let’s enjoy the current storm and move on from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormtracker Posted Monday at 09:12 AM Share Posted Monday at 09:12 AM So, NAM looks better with the Nrn vort vs Euro. NAM looks more like the GFS with the northern vort and southwest vort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormtracker Posted Monday at 09:49 AM Share Posted Monday at 09:49 AM So far, GFS is almost the same. Southwestern Vort is a tad more west Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted Monday at 11:20 AM Share Posted Monday at 11:20 AM As a ton of our setups are - it's super delicate. But that GEFS is encouraging to see, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my two cents...carry on Not really.. I've only been bullish about this storm we are having now out of all the storms in the last 5 years, and this is the only one that's verifying. Before this, 5.5" on Nov 15th 2018 was the record. The thing is we haven't had good setups.. this storm had a good setup. That's why I correctly predicted it from 7 days out. A bias means you are favoring one side over the other in verification, but that hasn't happened with me.. Sometimes it's just an easy call: I think this one in 5-6 days is an easy call. When it doesn't snow much with that storm, it won't mean that there is a warm bias. I would love a constant wintery pattern.. it's not happening yet. If there is another setup like this one today with -NAO and a favorable Pacific pattern, I will probably predict snow well in advance. Forecasting results over the last 5 years have not indicated a warm bias, we've just had mostly unfavorable patterns over that time. Here, 8 days ago: and Quote Models are trying to handle the continuously building -NAO.. they may be a little too dry right now, just doing what the index typically favors from the medium range. I love that 50/50 low. This one has a perfect 50/50 low. Historical maps of our best snowfalls have the 50/50 low area almost as low of an anomaly as the actual storm (meaning it is super important)! I'd definitely watch NE of DC. I still like the Jan 6th storm. It has a ton of moisture in the Midwest, moving into a -NAO block and 50/50 low. Very unlikely it will split off in pieces like the GFS is showing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted Monday at 12:31 PM Share Posted Monday at 12:31 PM ^ We've got time and this isn't a horrible place to be in with a potential bomb - much better than it running a little inland - but I'd like to see it start making some moves by noon tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted Monday at 01:19 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:19 PM Mount Holly removed the wording of snow chances for this Saturday. However, they did discuss the potential. potentially active pattern will resume beginning Friday night and especially on Saturday as another upper-trough and associated surface low pressure system works its way toward the area. As expected at this forecast range, there are major discrepancies between each deterministic model, and from run to run. For now, went with mostly NBM probabilities for precipitation, though tempered them a little, and have chance PoPs for snowfall Saturday into Saturday night. From the overnight models, the GFS seems to have the most impactful solution for our region while the CMC much less so and a complete miss on the EC. Stay tuned for changes as the week progresses.
