Spins right down into the developing storm. And we aren't far off with the system behind it. Gorgeous vorticity. That’ll do indeed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The 18z Euro sure looked a lot like the 18z GFS. Didn’t quite head up the coast but trending that way. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellicoWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Interesting..WPC completely removed the CMC and Ukie from their blend for this system. "A general model blend of the deterministic GFS/ECMWF/CMC/UKMET was used for the first two days of the period (Wednesday and Thursday), with more weight placed on the GFS and ECMWF. For Friday onwards, the CMC and UKMET were removed from the blend and the ECENS and GEFS ensemble means were added in increasing amounts." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I'd take the ICON, obviously rather have the GFS. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellicoWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Kinda feel like @John1122lately...hard to watch what used to be money on some of these models (Dallas getting hammered ex), just to go splat kinda right when it crosses the MS river. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 That would be a winter storm from yesteryear on the GFS. Inland runner that just snows and snows for hours on the eastern half of the area, after front end blasting the west side. Some mixing issues again that run, south of 40, but less than 18z because it wasn't quite as amped before it cut up the coastal plain. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the sounding on the southern end of the valley...had an issue with getting the moisture into the DGZ...no real sign of any major warm nose. Looked more like a lift issue causing frz drizzle sounding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 There would be layers of ice in the snow in some areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree...just kinda cranky at my old age lol...There's a steep road that goes straight uphill in town here that we use to sled down as a kid. Now over a decade since we had enough snow on the road to close it down for the kids. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Canadian is confounding. Produces a lot of WAA and it's icy, but that WAA brings comparatively little moisture north for so much WAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take away the DGZ issue and covert to snow...would line up with what would be expected climo (TX area that's nailed, LP pivoting near FL Panhandle, and backside energy/coma head)..6"-10" valley wide. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has me as sleet/snow on the sounding with no melt layer anywhere. Like 700mb to the surface, not just below 32, but below 28 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The Canadian ends up here, a lot of sleet under the snow from 1 tier of counties south of the KY border and points south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TellicoWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 @John1122 northern end of plateau..DGZ issue, never fully saturates, so Sharpy reads that as sleet/frz rain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 UKIE is similar but even weaker than the ICON. Dumps on western areas then unravels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
