  1. Man if the GFS idea is right about the quick coastal transfer then the ceiling is very high
  2. It transfers a lot faster. This is the best case scenario It'd be 14-20" pretty much area wide
  3. Let us pray. Its been trending with a faster coastal transfer.
  4. GFS is definitely not buying the amped camp
  5. Rgem is always over amped and runs warm btw. It's also very inaccurate beyond 48hrs
  6. That's why Mt Holly is going higher. Ratios for half the storm could be quite high given ideal snow growth and temps
  7. Mt. Holly and Co are betting on high ratios to start for higher totals. If ratios do hit 15:1 then maybe.
  8. Is that snow + sleet since technically sleet counts for totals.
  9. I hope we don't get 6-8" of snow with 2" of sleet on top. With temps as cold as they are that'll create a giant skating rink with horrendous plowing & travel conditions. That's far worse impact wise than a pure 12-15" snowstorm
  10. Agree 100% Rare possibility of more upside than downside I think. Also if precip falls hard enough near the transition zone that we could hold onto snow longer boosting amounts by 2-4"
  11. Sure would be nice for the GFS to score for once. GEFS also look great
  12. Yeah but every event is different. I'm going with wall of heavy snow to sleet and 6-10" region wide with locals 12+ Leaning on the colder side too. The scope and intensity of this airmass is much larger than what we're used to. It wouldn't surprise me to see models trend colder
  13. Oh stop it's a solid 6-10" dump even with the warmest runs. This would be the biggest storm in years for many.
  14. The problem is the phasing. Without it you risk suppression, with it you risk a lot of mixing. You don't have an ideal setup out west given the trough placement.
  15. The front end thump is solid. There's a higher ceiling with this than usual too.
  16. Yes but we do have an anchored and very strong Arctic high in place. Hence why highs will be in the teens on Sunday
  17. If we do look at the Nam it drops tons of snow before any mixing. And whatever snow we get will be encased in ice and will get locked in for days.
  18. Several models hinting that coastal low lingers, if not strengthens somewhat and drops a few inches Monday
  19. Inches of sleet on top of snow would absolutely suck. But CMC ain't a good model
  20. I'm going with the wall of snow to sleet idea. We could easily accumulate 6-8+" over a few hours if it comes in fast and heavy. Heavy snowfall rates could also help keep mid levels colder so we hold onto snow longer until things lighten up enough where we fully go to sleet
  21. Don't assume it can't trend better either. Either way we don't control the weather...no sense in getting angry about it if it doesn't work out.
  22. Yeah but 4-6" of snow plus 1-2" of pure sleet on top when temps are like 20F would still be quite bad.
