yoda Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Wind, cold, and mountain snow returns - from this morning LWX AFD The strong upper trough digs over the area Tuesday, with the surface pressure gradient tightening in response to the deepening low to our north. Model soundings indicate nearly unidirectional westerly flow from the surface to around 600mb, with a powerful jet aloft at 250mb approaching 120-130kt. This is a favorable setup for strong winds aloft to mix down to the surface, especially in the climo wind favored area along/west of the Blue Ridge and along/north of I-66. Winds could gust around 35-45 mph for most of the area, with 45-55 mph gusts in the mountains Tuesday afternoon. Wind Advisories are possible, with some of the higher-end ensemble guidance pointing to High Wind criteria being met. Some showers depart the area to the east through the day Tuesday, though precipitation continues in the Alleghenies. While the area dries out by Tuesday evening, cold air advection in the mountains results in a transition to snow showers Tuesday night. Upper dynamics look favorable on the backside of the departing upper trough, with northwest winds advecting moisture off the Great Lakes. The potential is there for several inches of accumulating snow along/west of the Allegheny Front, though confidence is low at this time given the warm antecedent conditions. Something to continue monitoring in the coming days. Compressional warming brings highs up to the 60s Tuesday afternoon. CAA Tuesday night drops temps to the mid 30s to 40s (with upper 20s to low 30s in the mountains). Gusty conditions are likely to persist Tuesday night, causing it to feel much colder than normal for mid April (wind chills in the upper 20s to 30s).

dailylurker Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Where did this storm tonight come from lol. I haven't been paying that much attention. I thought their was going to be an isolated thunderstorm tonight. It looks like a full on stormy night. Most areas will probably see way more rain tonight then from the Nor'easter Blast that wasn't a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
