    This is the type of pattern where being in a potent El Nino might actually help...we don't have that saturated geopotential medium with a trampoline to our south....so we can dig for oil on the east side of that central CONUS trough.
  2. ORH_wxman
    Ran from your basement....south shore shlong again on the CCB of that little clipper-redeveloper.
  3. ORH_wxman
    I'd def want it a bit compressed right now...southern stream juicer coming out of TX/OK. I also don't want any more rain, lol.
  4. ORH_wxman
    I think you'd do better with it a bit more amped...all those CCB goods to your SW in PA would get you. OBviously don't need the low crawling into NY/LI, but a bit more N before getting shunted east would prob be more violence for W CT.

    It's fighting the confluence at the end and it gets crunched a bit, but still a very nice event for most of SNE. It's in a pretty good spot at 4.5-5 days out since a bump north is fine from this position.
  6. ORH_wxman
    I think this run might be pretty good. If it misses, it's gonna be SE, but I think it might have enough looking at 96-102h.

    Yeah its a race against the sfc front pressing down tomorrow...we may not win that race here. Maybe we can "score" a few hours of decent weather in the PM if we thread the needle. Friday is awful....typically don't bet against BDF/wedge climo.

    Ukie is a nice hit for SE MA/RI...Cape really gets it. Advisory back in the interior east of the river.
  9. ORH_wxman
    Trees still mostly caked....though a little bit of fall off branches compared to earlier. Everything pasted for most of the morning. Temp has been really slow to climb....32.5F right now.
  10. ORH_wxman
    There are still huge fundamental differences in the northern stream....GFS kind of presses it down in the middle of the storm which mucks it up. GGEM has it ahead of the southern shortwave so it had a little room to operate.

    This is actually an interesting map to view vs the 10 to 1 I posted because you'll notice the 10 to 1 has higher amounts to the west but lower than Kuchera to the east....this shows how that CCB in eastern areas is when temps are crashing and much colder.
  12. ORH_wxman
    SE areas might have a bit more upside than some of the lower elevations further west because the CCB will get cranking and eventually turn very cold as it draws in that more arctic airmass....so even if you "Waste" the first half of the storm, you could go to pound-town for 6-10 hours during the CCB with big rates and much colder temps. It is still a needle-thread idea, but there is some upside there.

    We ICON.... Ok, the real models should be coming out soon.
  14. ORH_wxman
    MJO being super active has def hurt this winter.
  15. ORH_wxman
    Very picturesque snow
  16. ORH_wxman
    Could be some coke lines OES later in the event as temps plummet. GFS has temps in the lower to mid 20s with OES at the end.
  17. ORH_wxman
    Previous runs of EPS and GEFS had the wave dying in phase 6, now they both bring it into phase 8....been a theme all winter in the models trying to push it into the COD.
  18. ORH_wxman
    Probably...you can see how there's a trailing "Tail" on the snow distribution on some of those bigger ones....it's also 10 to 1 maps so they will be overdone, esp in lower elevations. Hills over interior def have the best chance of good snows....I'm sure you'll be hoping MQE can triple your total.
  19. ORH_wxman
    Still quite a few robust members on 06z EPS (that strip way up near Canadian border is from this week, so you can ignore that for this storm)....so I don't think this one is relegated to nuisance yet....it may still trend that way, but that's a good number of warning events.
  20. ORH_wxman
    Just taken to the woodshed by a beast of a man this winter. Hopefully we get a nice 128-495 special on Sunday….that will relax your mood a bit.
  21. ORH_wxman
    This actually looks colder than that one believe it or not. The one thing in that one though was the dynamics were very strong, esp in the first half of the storm. I want to see some better dynamics in this threat. A few model runs have had it but a lot more runs have been a bit disorganized.
  22. ORH_wxman
    They have a decent pack up there. Looks like there’s snow on them if you look closely. That pic has a color filter on it that makes everything look darker so the snow doesn’t stick out as much. Either that or the light was really weird near sunset or something.
  23. ORH_wxman
    12/5/20? Sounds like your description. ORH had a 10” paste bomb in that. We had like 3-4” here and further east had like 1-2”.
  24. ORH_wxman
    It doesn’t have to start as rain…and when I say start as rain, I don’t mean for the first 20-40 minutes while the boundary layer evaporationally cools. Yeah technically that counts as “starting as rain”, but it doesn’t really materially affect the storm totals. I mean for like several hours while we wait for heights/midlevel temps to crash. There are several version of this storm where we are already cold enough aloft to snow in the beginning.
  25. ORH_wxman
    Prob how disorganized it is. I don’t necessarily like that either because you won’t get good accumulation with that look. There’s plenty of time to make this more consolidated but I think we’ll want to see this trend better in the next 2-3 cycles to be more confident in anything over high end advisory.
