BaltimoreWxGuy Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Yeah, we all thought we were heading in the other direction, then they do that lol, who cares. dont know wth they are thinking. Well I never thought an ISW or WSW was in the cards...but i wasnt sure about a downgrade..but it is more in line with my personal thoughts though.

BethesdaWX Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Temp continues to drop, down to 29.2. What sounds like sleet here is actually "icy" snow, if that makes any sense. Definitely not sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 ridiculous, your thoughts? Cmon man, its not ridiculous..you dont have to agree with it but many people had this thought the whole time....Just because some dont decide to hop on the 18Z train doesn't mean its ridiculous...the warming in the upper levels has already begun, especially to our south and when heavier precip occurs this will only speed up the process....We'll see what happens but its not a ridiculous call.

AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I don't see anything that supports areas NW of 95 turning to rain. This could be a pretty major ice storm for the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Although talk about hedging their bets. According to my LWX forecast, we could have all ice or rain till noon, or a combination of both, or nothing, or snow, or drizzle...I'm dizzy from just reading that. Tonight: Freezing rain and sleet before midnight, then freezing rain between midnight and 3am, then rain or freezing rain after 3am. Low around 30. East wind around 9 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total nighttime ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Total nighttime sleet accumulation of less than a half inch possible. Tuesday: Rain or freezing rain before noon, then a chance of rain between noon and 3pm. High near 39. North wind between 8 and 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Little or no ice accumulation expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
