  1. Past hour
  2. I’m just gonna stick with what GSP NWS is predicting. They are very good at what they do.
  3. Obviously much higher QPF event back in 2007, but does anyone recall the breakdown of pure sleet (vs. snow / freezing rain) accumulation in the Valentine's Day storm across the LSV?
  4. Lee Goldberg said yesterday... Your gonna see 2-3" per hour rates in areas
  5. Could be in places on the bubble, re sleet vs FZRA. Love the Bon Jovi reference. Rock on!
  6. You’re like 15 miles south of me. How much is still left there? I’ve been away since Monday.
  7. Monday afternoon when it’s all said and done, who will be disappointed? I don’t think anyone will overperform NWS projected amounts but underperforming is likely
  8. You wanna get rid of this thing in a timely fashion if you want next weekend
  9. SWFE, NWFE, Miller A, Miller B, clipper, redeveloper…who cares. It’s going to snow and it’s going to snow a lot
  10. Wow shows 5.7 Inches of sleet in southwest Virginia!! That's just insane lol
  11. 3k NAM is about 10 hours of snow before it flips here. probably 10-12". let's flatten this a couple hairs and improve Mondays outlook
  12. A changeover before noon would not be ideal, but if I’ve got 6” on the ground by then, then so be it. I’ve been hugging the euro for my backyard.
  13. 0z NAM + the temps from it at 700 mb. You can see why it's doing what it's doing with what it thinks is gonna happen.
  14. This one may go down in some type of record 24 hour sleet accumulation up this way.. I just saw simulation of 5.7” that would be unbelievable
  15. 10+ years ago I would say this will come north last minute, but in recent years, these Ohio Valley Miller b's tend to keep the good snows SE of detroit.
  16. Typically the degree of the warm air (MaxT aloft) will be proportional to the depth. In other words, the highest the MaxT aloft, the deeper the warm or >0C air. In many studies I've seen though, no matter how deep or shallow the warm air is, when you hit 3C or 37F, you're completely melting the hydrometeor. Once that happens, there's no going back to sleet or anything "pellety" unless the air somewhere within the subfreezing layer can get down to -13C/8F or lower. Unless that happens, the rain drop does not refreeze. When we see sleet, it's typically associated with an elevated warm layer temp between 0.5C and just below 3.0C. When it's closer to 0.5C, it's probably more of a sleety & rimed snow mix. When the MaxT aloft is closer to 2.5C, it's more like a sleet ball, with little if any evidence of a mangled snowflake.
  17. Doesn't count. Sleet is not snow and that's a troll way to get to a warning...I just want 6+" of snow. Been 10 years. It should not be this hard
  18. It comes down to liability. People are afraid to make a call and be wrong. Again, from a Risk Management point of view, I am actually sounding an alarm and have been to those I know and advise. The truth is we dont KNOW what will happen. However, there is a high probability of a significant ice storm. There is a medium to high possibility of a crippling ice storm. There is a moderate possibility of a catastrophic ice storm. From a Risk Management perspective, this is where you plan for severe disruption and pray you are wrong. But, if there was any WINTER storm where I would pull out the stops, its this one.
  19. It sucks bad 1.5" we dry slot it away 2.5" DC they do it right
