Terpeast Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I think a reasonable expectation for DC metro and surrounding burbs is half of gfs output. 2-4” areawide with 5-6” at ezf. I’d always leave the door open for a more expansive shield on the north side though. I would never count that out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristowWx Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 It looks amazing. On 2/8/2025 at 4:02 PM, winter_warlock said: Not bad. Still gives me 5 to 6 inches. Expand That looks amazing. Couple ticks north and it’s epic for my area. As is it’s pretty sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is 2 runs in a row that the GFS is showing a more intense wave and it is ticking north...WB 12Z compared to 6Z. And it is not alone. In line with AI. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
