Kenny, can you send me a PM if you notice FZR? MCPS is debating a call around 4:30 or so and the earlier the ice starts the more I consider a conference call with our EOC folks.

33andrain Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I feel really good setting here at 22 with all of that precip approaching from the south. I think 22 is about 5 degrees colder then it was forecast to be overnight. :popcorn:Bring it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalfy Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Heck, it dropped to 32 all the way down to RIC. Central MD mostly mid 20's. I'm very surprised it's this cold at the surface. TBH I dont know why people are so surprised lol. We knew CAD had a history of being underplayed and even with this bias... most models still had us progged below frzn for at least half the event.

yoda Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 00z NAM soundings IAD 0.25" precip through 12z. 2m temp is 29.3 at 12z. Warms to 38 by 18z... but precip is drizzle (0.01 QPF) after 12z JYO 0.20" precip through 12z. 2m temp is 28.5 at 12z. Warms to 37.7 by 18z... precip over after 12z BWI 0.52 precip through 12z. 2m temp is 32.4 at 12z. Warms to 35.5 by 18z with 0.12 precip after 12z in the form of rain. Not exactly sure when the changeover is... but just after 10z would make sense. EZF 0.28 precip through 12z. 2m temp is 30.8 at 12z. Warms to 40.9 at 18z with 0.02 precip after 12z (likely drizzle) DCA 0.43 precip through 12z. 2m temp is 31.6 at 12z. Warms to 37.2 at 18z with 0.07 precip after 12z (likely light rain).

psuhoffman Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I don't get how a low that close to the coast dosent bring heavy precip to its west? It never develops a strong enough circulation to have a CCB develop to its west, so the precip is all WAA related. Part of the problem is the low in the lakes preventing such a circulation from developing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
