It does get up to 32 in DC, def in the GFS camp temp wise whereas the Euro keeps us in the mid to upper 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 540 line is south of us on both the gfs/cmc...it's about as good of a run as we could expect at this range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDweatherman Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Love the solutions at 12z showing .75-1" QPF in the sweetspot zones. Certainly believe it with a stronger, well oriented vort tapping GoM feeds and solid forcing. Not to mention a great pass that keeps the enhancement going a bit longer on GFS & GGEM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we get shellacked. Just a matter of when we flip. Sooo, does the 12Z GFS run give 2-3" here in NW Augusta County like WB says or 10"+ like SV says?

Amped Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Could be some decent backend snows as well. This does look kind of similar to the 1/2019 setup. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asking for a friend! lol sometimes people post maps before the run is far enough along If WB and SV differ on 10:1 maps and it is apples to apples. Go with WB. SV doesnt have Kuchera so that is WB alone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CMC has a period of moderate to heavy snow for a few hours around 00z Tuesday. That would be really sweet. Cover everything up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesternFringe Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Question for the more knowledgeable posters here: Does the Euro or the GFS do better with thermals at this range? 12Z GFS has a nasty warm nose at 700-850 mb for most of the storm here whereas the 6Z Euro shows the column staying plenty cold throughout.

clskinsfan Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 All of the models seem pretty much in agreement now. QPF is a little different on each. But the general idea is identical. Its a 6-12 for everyone. Perfect classic snowstorm. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormy Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 The GFS is very erratic with the movement of low pressure from western Tennessee/Kentucky to the east coast. This must be clarified with future runs to determine who gets what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 15 minutes ago, Ravens94 said: Moisture transport is getting better and better this morning that's for sure. This is something I was noticing over the last 24 hours and 12z runs so far really demonstrate it. The slightly northward shifted solutions are also much wetter generally. This goes hand-in-hand with a stronger shortwave and/or less confluence allowing more vigorous moisture transport. So with the tracks that put RIC-Baltimore on the edge of ever flipping p-types also have greater totals. As long as it doesn't get much stronger/norther from these types of solutions, this is probably a trade most of us (north of RIC or Fredericksburg) would be willing to make since both that front end thump is more intense and there's a more coherent CCB snow shield on the back side Monday. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillvilleWx Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 1 hour ago, StormyClearweather said: Check out those DPs There will be some decent wet bulbing once the moisture feed enters the air and starts moistening things up from the top-down. It’s one of the reasons a lot of us will start snow and stay pretty much all snow. The dividing line will likely be in VA and MAYBE portions of St Mary’s County in MD. Rest should be snow. Have to see how it trends as we move closer. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 UK is good and colder than the GFS and CMC, more Euro like with the temps. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillvilleWx Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 40 minutes ago, ThePhotoGuy said: Annapolis jackpot You and I know that likely won’t happen, but I like where we are for this event. There’s growing consensus on some really solid 85H FGEN across our hood. Plus we are further east than the fall line so MIGHT get a little help on the transfer fun as noted by some of the globals. I’m not expecting a jackpot by any means, but it’s a good situation for us! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folks should always prep themselves for the real chance you could see a north shift over the next 84 hours, but hard not to love where things stand.
