  1. Quick question for the both of you. When browsing the SPC mesoanalysis page tomorrow what should I be looking for to see if the event is on track? Just wondering what values of CAPE or other parameters I should be using as a guideline for forecasting out to my peeps if things are looking better/worse than anticipated.
  2. Wonder if UVA will cancel classes or send out an email. I know back when you went they rarely canceled but now for even 2 inch snowstorms they move stuff online.
  3. What are the best places on Grounds to watch the shelf cloud come in? Thinking if I don't chase out to Orange or areas east to hopefully see some rotation or get supercell shots I might as well try to get some otherworldly shots of Grounds.
  4. I think a good way to communicate to the public that these risks show is saying the SPC (severe weather prediction center) have put us in a risk level of 4/5. This risk is reserved for 2-5 times a decade usage in our area. It sounds a lot more threatening than "we're in a moderate risk from the SPC"
  5. Thinking I might chase tomorrow. Any met want to tell me a good grounding location? I was thinking orange VA
  6. Need it to slow down enough to get the midnight snowfall. ATP we're just running back Thursday
  7. To my relatively novice eyes the 0z NAM run looks primed. Lapse rates, decent enough cape, and ofc insane shear.
  8. You still have snow on the tops of Shenandoah this afternoon
  9. Remember. Storm chasers don’t want you to know this, but once you enter the hail core it’s what people in the know refer to as “the cool zone” where fun things happen.
  10. If you go onto COD nexrad and look at the satellite you can see the snow disappear as soon as the cloud deck exits eastward.
  11. I'd say that this thread more than lived up to its name. What a fun little storm. Arguably stuff like this is the best snows.
  12. Snowing in Cvill! Rain snow mix but its reaching the ground!
  13. Air temperatures have started to level off a bit and I think the mountains are blocking most of it from progressing into the valley. Hoping to get a brief turn to snow but we'll see what happens.
  14. Hey at least you and me are in this cold rain show together. Though I can hopefully jet out to the Afton overlook for the sunset after my lab.
  15. Man, if I didn't have my atmosphere and weather lab from 2-6 today I'd be out in Shenandoah today. Though, apparently we are launching a weather balloon in lab today which might get a pretty interesting sounding graph.
  16. Shenandoahs must be snowing according to radar and in Cvill it’s rain but some suspiciously large drops with temps in the low 40s.
  17. This is going to be the modern equivalent of Veterans Day trust.
