Coastal Storm Potential - Jan 11-12 II


Baroclinic Zone

Recommended Posts

Welcome! I'm in the west bay area - mostly a lurker. I agree on the lower ratios issue.

Work up near the dump, if your in Western Cranston ratios might be better 10:1, the thing working in favor of 10:1 is the timframe of the storm, still looking at 12-18 my bet, I live 2 min from Attleboro border and its usually 2 degrees colder than PVD Cranstons temps are usually in line in East Cranston but Western cranston sees temps lower expecaially closer you get to 295.

Wind gusted pretty good here but I could hear it absolutely howling up high when I walked the dog.

Did you get your snow blower working? Hopefully you need it Wed!

I did. Got home from MD at 4:30 yesterday and went right to work to clear the drive. Got up this morning to find all the wind that was blown from the lawn was deposited on my drive. Oh, well. That's Wednesday's project.

Did/when do the EC ensembles become available? Eager to see how they compare to the op.

2m temps are plenty below freezing. 850s look cold on the EC. The GFS has some decent omega at CON from H7-H5 after 12z Wed and the -12C to -18C zone runs from about H7-H6. I'd think we'd see some pretty decent snow growth and ratios during that time for our region.

You thinking 15:1 or a little better being that cold....

That where i think we end up unless we see another shift North......

Truth. I mean some of the SREF members (I want to say 6) gave the southeastern coast of Maine aoa 1" qpf and all snow. But that's just eye candy at this point. The overall SREF mean has been pretty consistent if I remember correctly and they pump out a solid 0.75-1" which would definitely be good for higher amounts--they just seem to be on their own at this point...save for the new Euro.

Good starting point, Can go up from there, Ratios should be decent, Certainly plenty cold and the low center is well east still.......

I don't think so either, but if the CF sets up over Ray, Logan WILL necessarily mix...but i agree, as of now it seems the jackpot could be Sharon again.

Logan doesn't have to mix if the CF is west of them...it just means they are a few degrees warmer than W of the CF....31-32F vs mid and upper 20s.

I'm in eastern Cranston - on the warmer side. The snowfall gradient from the bay to the western hills can be pretty impressive. The night time arrival is def. a good thing.

I think the mixing will be an issue only in Washington County / newport. but even there not too long. one thing that has me worried about is the weekends snow will make snow that will fall stick a little quicker, driving will be brutal wednesday morning. already told the boss don't expect me haha, its great you are the "weather guy" at work I make the snowdays lol
