  1. Coastal gets going a bit further south so less love up this way. Gives RIC or just north reason to rejoice a bit.
  2. We have seen this both be beneficial as well as painful.. it is not as uncommon as you would think! Even the December Storm had a shift north. It is always a possibility and many times if you are on the north fringe of the best precip, it ends up shifting in the last 24 hours.. especially these North to South gradient systems. But yes.. usually they kill chances and we are all left deflated.
  3. What side of the front you end up on..southerly or northerly
  4. Thinking those calling for the large areas of 6 to 10 inches in the region are going to find these amounts are isolated and/or higher elevations. 2 to 4 seems prudent and the higher amounts will be 4 to 6 inches for the majority of people. We will see if the EURO holds serve, but I suspect it will.
  5. I saw Kuchera ratio was pretty high out your way. Hoping for that as well! We all need a win - even if it is not the biggest event, we want to maximize on all we get.
  6. See you all for 12Z - One honest question - What happened to the Panasonic? Was it so worthless no one looks at it, or was it discontinued? I am being lazy because I am sure I could look that up!
  7. I hope this is all a trend that ups the ante at noon - we will see watches expand (as we all know - call me mr. obvious) - I like seeing thing trend better.
  8. Disregard earlier post! needed to read through it all. Basically, a 2 - 4 inch for all and some folks will get some bands of 4 to 6 - Coastal is a no show for us.. Easy to see consensus. The stripe of heaviest north of Richmond up to about Fredericksburg and that is a solid 4 to 8 favoring 6" for the highest amounts - about my thinking all along. Richmond is a mixing challenge! Gonna see some spots get the 7 to 10, but they seem more isolated to me until you get to the higher elevations. Modest event. So much better than what things have been. Hoping for all positive trends today!
  9. Psu..is that better waa snow up your way or am I wrong?
  10. Seems a steady decline trend overall - Yes GFS. FV3 have been juicier but, in general, we are not seeing positive trends... Maybe 12z Euro will surprise, but I am thinking we see a further erosion and we have small WAA to work with and hope for some banding.. dangit all!
  11. Looking forward to euro 6z run.. well..not certain I am or not but interested
  12. Think this is the start of a trend?? We have to wait and see..gefs will be helpful
  13. This was a mixed message - better coverage - less fringworthy - but less QPF.. now we need the QPF to step up a notch or two - as every southern system has seemed to do (at least when it rains) and we will all do a snow dance!
  14. Boooo... that is not a trend I want to see continue. It looked better for coverage, but less for output. Your post above (before this one) said 0Z as well - I know you meant 12Z
  15. It gets easy to put on weenie glasses when looking at the models. Also, the desired and believed North trend. Nothing seems to point to shutout, but we are not super far from something more substantial. I am ok with a light snow when I was thinking it was a long shot last week, but we always think the chances of snow in the region are limited, so we want to capitalize on every opportunity and have it in our back yard. My thinking is just N of Richmond does best and of course SW VA and Mountains are a given. Hoping for the run up the coast though... at least there is a chance!
  16. This looks south! But better system for Central VA! Atmospheric memory? Well it better trend better going forward?
  17. Bounce back and forth between Pivotal and Tropical Tidbits to see who gets the update first!
  18. My thinking is somewhere there will stripe with a 3 to 5" - mountains will squeeze a bit more - In general though we will want that stripe north of where it has been heading! We also want the system a bit stronger. I do not think we are thinking much more than this. Outside the 3 to 5" stripe will be a 1 to 3" area.. and then the fringes of course (which we all hope is not in our back yards) I think anything more is wishful thinking.. even this may be wishful thinking! Less is of course possible with the squash factors in place and the strung out look! So we fine tune and hope for a north/stronger trend.. but no one should get too excited or upset. Things are better than they have been!
  19. Definite step away from storm.. We want some consistency in placement! I am out - until 0z! No more trends south.. This would be a great run if we were under 72 hours..
