  1. Per the 12z GFS, temps in the low to mid 20s for nearly everyone during the storm. Incredible.
  2. It's amazing what clear skies, light winds, and even minimal snowpack can do.
  3. Taking a quick peek a the 12k NAM for the 12z run, the high coming out of Canada appears stronger? Looks like 1054mb+. Not sure what, if any downstream implications this would have.
  4. Right now I would not be worried about significant, long duration power outages. There is no signal for high winds and this is going to be a light, fluffy snow. Looks like cold powder.
  5. 00z Euro / EPS and AI-EPS just dump all the cold air over the eastern 2/3rds of North America through the start of February. Looks like a legitimate vodka cold we all dream about as kids.
  6. Lol...CWG saying accumulating snow "not quite a lock".
  7. Yea the 06z Euro gets hanky with the sleet and zr line. If I were in NC or Southern VA I'd be upset.
  8. Euro insistent on a late Saturday night to early Sunday start time across the area. Precip comes in like a wall in the dead of night.
  9. Yes this is what I want. We all win. Got a link to that product? Yup that was 2/14/14. I remember that well. We got 24" in Damascus, but only 5" in Takoma Park. It was the most intense snowfall gradient I ever witnessed. We took plows from southern Montgomery County and sent them north to help the upcounty roads.
  10. From a climatology/historical perspective, that's insane.
  11. Standard message: for anyone making a briefing package I strongly recommend including a "Created on: [insert date/time here]" and "Do not use for decision making after [insert date/time here". That way people know how stale the information is.
  12. ^wow that would be an incredible way to bust a snow drought
  13. Euro now trying to throw some Pacific moisture into the storm. This is likely why the snow totals are going up. Big moisture feed overrunning a dome of very cold air. Tons of lift, moisture, and cold air.
  14. The whole page: https://www.weather.gov/lwx/winter
