January 24th-26th potential winter storm part 2


Hoosier

Recommended Posts

did you not look at the trends at 0z, Canuck?

Yes, there's been some movement, but nothing that suggests to me that the evolution of the storm is going to be drastically more favorable for us. Although, my pessimism is driven by mby. Higher latitude = more difficult to get this done. Obviously you OH folks have the best chance of all of us.

OKAY OKAY Fair enough, well come back and join in if things change, I know youre going to still watch the models. lol

we have a nao finally going towards neutral positive and the block from hell is gone. It's a different met period we are in right now. You can't compare everything with the past. Central OH had been whiffed all season long....2 days ago we got the brunt of that 'storm'....granted brunt is described as 4-5", but brunt none the less. Things do change.

Ehh, the models are trying to temporarily form the trough swinging over the eastern Lakes now into a block, which may be part of why the models refused to have our storm taking on a negative tilt west of the Apps.

However, the 0z models so far are trending more towards actually showing a closed off/negative tilted storm west enough to potentially have an impact on us.

Ok, I've made it known I'm in the nay camp. Won't rain on your parade any further. Keep fighting the good fight. :)

i was just mess'n with you. :) i hope you know that. Every snowstorm is a rarity....so why dwell on the many things that can always go wrong and not discuss the possibilities when they present themselves, and yes, this has possibilities. When was the last true, gulf-born storm this season?? Chances are always greater than not that a snowstorm won't occur, that's a given. In fact not one model has yet put precip over us except for the nam, and that was barely. I want to discuss the opportunities. That's all ;)

Yeah, I knew you were kidding. It's a fine line between being rational and objective, and dwelling on the negative stuff. I'm hugging that line now. I'll try my best not to get all Alek on you.

massive rainstorm lol

the cutoff is the trend tonite. I know some say that's a good thing but to me it seems like it would cause the low to head more east and not north

This was something I was wondering about out loud yesterday. Is it possible that this cuts off enough to where it's going to drastically limit the areal extent of snow on the western side? That is looking more and more possible if you believe the latest runs.

you mean the precip doesn't get wrapped around the north? that does make sense

GFS ensemble mean at 96 draws the 0.25" isohyet from Portsmouth, OH to Elmira, NY. That's a good couple of hundred miles NW of the OP GFS's 0.25" isohyet. Indicative that there's a fair bit of spread to the NW among the individual members.

was just gonna post that. Especially nice considering this might be the first time tracking this that the ensembles were WEST of the op on any model
