Those Kuchera ratios N Arlington posted are 16:1 to 18:1 out here.  

We know that ain't happening lol.

If we end up with .25 liquid I'm thinking 3 inches maybe at best.

I'm starting to think 3" is my bar.

I don't see the Canadians being correct.

Not after the 1/6 storm lol.

I’d take the under on kuchera ratios along i-95 and just NW, but could be right for the elevations. 

Feeling 2-4” areawide, 3-6+ well nw (cacotins and mount psu, m/d line)

I'm thinking the same, a bit aggressive with 16/18 to 1 (although I did pull a 17 to 1 on last small system 2.2 on 0.13 liquid). 12/14 to 1 would be more than ideal. 2-4 in DC area and 3-6 with MAYBE a jackpot 7 or 7.5 in a couple of spots.

But I can’t feed on the powerless, when my cups already overfilled?

But you don't mind stealing bread from the mouths of decadence...

Back to the storm, after the 12z suite looks like 3-6" for most with booms up to 8" and busts down to 1" possible forum-wide.  Hopefully AI comes in juicy in about an hour!

Not to mention this is falling in the afternoon with max solar insolation.  .3" QPF, even if we get it, is going to be a very minor event.  Honestly, not getting the enthusiasm for this system.  But, as always, hoping for the best.

why even give him the satisfaction of a response. let him go talk to his fb groupies about how much everything sucks. 

Well, I thought he wasn't reading the model correctly first.  Then he came back with 0.3 inches as "Dry" and I realized he's just being dumb and/or rage baiting.

Euro blipping a warning light for the NW side of the snow. That cutoff in my neck of the woods is brutal.

NW side is high potential either way... 

Something to note, both the GFS and Euro have had that duel band structure and I believe that will be true...but the Euro is keying the heavier snowfall in the NW band, and I also believe that is true.  Historically the highest snowfall with these amplifying progressive boundary waves is near the NW edge of the snowfall *usually somewhere near the -8 850 isotherm) with another max closer to the R/S thermal boundary.  A lot of the time that NW max area ends up further NW than guidance suggested heading in...but if you end up NW of that band it can drop of real quick to almost nothing.  Being on the NW side is playing with fire in these but sometimes you get the jack that way also.

.3 inches is dry. Not sure why everyone is taking shots at me.

At least we don’t have to worry about too amped on the EPS. A lot of weak pos misses to the SE.

An hour 48 model war with GEFS N/W and EPS a bit to the S/E, ops in between which aren't that far from each other in ground truth (evolution wise). QPF is still a big discrepancy.

After the first couple hours when the low passes east of our longitude, I'd bet ratios would improve. That being said, 850's aren't necessarily bad for ratios better than 10:1.

Think we will go from like  30-32 at 3pm ish Sunday to 20-25 by 6/7 pm so that will boost ratios and I’m even going to throw out some squalliness as possible

I'm good with 3-5" baseline if you compromise the good and bad solutions for MBY. I'm good with that, and I'll be happier than a fly on shit if we hit the boom scenarios. 

I think the lower qpf is more a product of the quick-hitting nature of the storm more so than it being just a bunch of snow grains falling from the sky.
