NinjaWarrior2 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I think they should issue WWA's for the first part, late tonight into tomorrow, if its going to be even a slushy snow, or anything that has the potential for accumulation, it should be put down.

SeanVA Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 If this storm moves east 10 miles I would be happy. Also, you guys are acting like thundersnow is guarantee. It is a rediculous setup regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Lets say the heavy snow last 8 hours. .1875 inches per hour. At a 10:1 ratio that is less than 2 inches an hour. I think that is possible. Yeah I know it's possible to get 2 inch/hr rates for 6 hours I'm just saying it's fairly rare for us and usually involves some luck to be in the right place. It does seem like the chances of it happening are increasing for the DC-Baltimore area. I'm not gonna be disappointed if we end up with 4-6 inches though.

Ji Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 we suck at small storms....i think its easier for us to get 8-14 then it is a simple 3-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I thought I'd try out american wx forums but I'm shocked at the self-promotion and arrogance of some of the members on here. Feel free to delete this post or even ban me. I'm out. This is one forum of many and I think the majority of people here need to get over themselves. To those that value good conversation and appreciate weather for what it is, thank you. To those that ignore any other opinion beyond their own or their inner circle of friends, I'm sorry. Yeah...you missed the point. Clearly. take a break dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 THEN AROUND WED MIDDAY/WED AFTN... THE I95 CORRIDOR AROUND THE DC/BWI WILL BEGIN TO GET INVOLVED ON THE ACTION. THE UPPER LOW CENTER WILL SLIDE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AREA PRODUCING ENOUGH COOLING ALOFT TO TRANSLATE DOWN TO THE BOUNDARY LAYER FOR RAIN CHANGING OVER TO ALL SNOW. THE INSTABILITY AND UVVS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEVELOPING DEFORMATION ZONE/COMMA-HEAD WILL BE OFF THE CHARTS... POSSIBLY ALLOWING A CONVECTIVE ASPECT TO BECOME INVOLVED. THIS SHOULD TRANSLATE IN INTENSE SNOWFALL RATES ACROSS THE DC/BWI AREA FROM LATE TMRW AFTN TO VERY EARLY THURS MORNING BEFORE THE ENTIRE PHASING SYSTEM MOVES RAPIDLY UP THE COAST. THUS FOR THURS... A QUICK SIDE-SWIPE OF MDT TO HVY SNOWFALL IS EXPECTED UP I95 THROUGH PHL... NYC AND BOS. HPC WENT WITH 4 TO 12 INCH HVY SNOW PROBS EACH DAY AND A GENERAL PREFERENCE TOWARD A ECMWF/CANADIAN/UKMET BLEND OVER THE NAM/GFS ON MASS FIELDS... QPF AND THERMAL PROFILES. it's funny that 2 days ago with basically the same 500 maps lwx said there would be no dynamics. i wonder sometimes....

blazeKing Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I can't recall too many storms where EZF gets more than DCA , it doesn't happen very often at all. The high QPF numbers should stay north as the NAM/RGEM are now showing. But I'll gladly...GLADLY double my total snowfall so far with a 3 incher and cheer on the 6"+ to the north :snowman: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
