Also, HRRR seems aggressive with temps. -6 (a record low) by tomorrow night, and dipping to -7 Christmas Eve (not a record). With so little snow, I doubt that.
Dropped us to under an inch, lol. I don't think it gets to even 1 degree, which is their forecast without more snow on the ground, and if it does, I couldn't imagine how cold it would have been with a couple inches.
I don't buy that Wheeling would have that much more than us, when the changes would essentially be the same just earlier for Wheeling. Maybe just model noise.
If the secondary trends stronger, wouldn't it cause the upper atmosphere to cool quicker for us and allow temps to drop even before the front moves in?
Well, the risk of heavy snow is not far away, and it doesn't discount the possibility of a brief period of heavy snow as the cold air collapses in. I don't think anyone is expecting a foot of heavy snow. It's just saying the risk is there. We'll still likely see some snow, let's just enjoy that possibility.
I guess there's too much going on, they'd have to write a novel. Obviously once these temperatures drop below freezing it's going to snow.
What's weird is TWC has 26 for the Thursday low and NWS has 10. So, that's more of an issue with regard to the flash freeze potential.
Yeah, I saw this. It's a weird description. Never saw anything like that. Since they didn't saw 'new rain totals' I'm assuming their meaning rain changes to snow.
