Expand the flow is too suppressive overall for a quick relatively weak STJ wave to get it done...we need it to slow down and phase with that trailing NS TPV lobe tail. That's the path. It's worked before, Dec 2009 was that kind of progression. This wouldn't have that kind of upside I don't think but talking about storm type. The upside on a faster disconnected unphased wave is pretty low...probably 3-6" max and I'm willing to kick that in hopes of a big dog. It's not like we didn't get any snow this season...lets go big or go home here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenkinsJinkies Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 So if eastern NC and southern VA score then does that mean that we still have a chance at those 2ft+ snows in future winters? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PNA is more robust at 18z, the vort is stronger, and the heights out ahead are higher. Maybe our definitions of progressive dont jive. Less of a dig maybe but I think it could just be a hair slower. The blocking overtop is even stronger 18z. Again, might be getting ready to go apeshit after this, we just can't know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a front runner with 2-4 for all of us you want it to speed up. So we dont get skipped. If you want a complete bomb you want it to slow down and phase. Much less likely.

One way to look at it is the kicker remains in place and even though the main closed low is a bit further east, there is now more separation between it and the kicker. So possibly this gives it room to dig enough prior to the coast to bring up a strengthening low. It’s why the ridge is better as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
