WB 6Z EPS at Day 6

Latest WB GEFS extended

WB 18Z GEFS v EPS for our early March blizzard at Day 6.

I think it is the first time he has been bullish for the MA this winter.

On his afternoon video, JB says it looks like a blizzard for the MA early next week followed with record cold….

WB 18Z GFS

Oz had a few flush hits, fewer at 12z. Fewer flush hits at 12Z.

WB 12Z EPS thru 10 days continues the snow hole trend…

WB 12Z EURO

GEFS is chilly but dry after Th- Fri ice event thru Day 10.

From a very practical standpoint have an appointment Friday am and need to drive east on 70 from Brunswick to Ellicott City so need to figure out if the GFS is correct or need to reschedule..

Thru 7 am Fri GFS still showing ice storm ( and not over)

12Z ICON has Sunday storm (NE snow is from Friday)

Model of Choice on overnight runs is the WB 0Z Euro Control at Day 8.

WB 6Z GFS ice storm for Th. Night/ Friday am followed by glacier Saturday.

Latest from Sterling NWS….keep tracking Th. and Friday. Heading into the latter portions of the work week, a great deal of uncertainty looms regarding the temperature and precipitation forecast. The mentioned cold front remains over the Carolinas while the Mid-Atlantic becomes wedged in as high pressure builds to the north and northwest. As a result, Thursday`s temperatures drop back into the upper 30s to low 40s. Ensemble temperature plots depict quite a bit of spread, particularly on the higher end of the spectrum. As the strong upper trough exits the Four Corners and migrates toward the Ohio Valley, modest ascent ahead of this feature will drive additional rounds of precipitation. Depending on the timing and thermal profiles, some of this may be wintry in nature. Given the stout surface high to the north, this potential for wintry precipitation appears reasonable as shown by the guidance. As southerly warm advection will override the boundary, freezing rain would be a concern in this pattern. However, a number of details need to be resolved first. The entire system eventually exits some time on Friday with possible mountain snow showers on the back side.

WB 12Z EPS heart of the cold centered March 2.

WB 240

WB 12Z EPS 168, slim pickings for storm 1

Well….then there is the control….

WB 12Z EPS….several big hits that would make everyone happy!

WB 12Z EURO freezing rain thru Friday am.

1 pm Th…weak wave moves in and out then wait on next wave which is warmer.

I don’t know if end result will be better yet, but cold air advancing SE faster on WB 12Z EURO compared to 0Z on Wed. Am

Sorry this is banter but we are waiting for EURO. Got out with my free oil change, free new wipers, and free brake fluid…..exceeded expectations. Now we need to find 50-100 miles as depicted by WB GEFS thru 10 days and exceed expectations in the snow department.
