The Jan 31 Potential: Stormtracker Failure or 'Tracker Trouncing
The Dude replied to stormtracker's topic in Mid Atlantic
Interesting snippet from LWX's AFD: Nothing has changed in terms of the pattern for a storm along the Eastern Seaboard this wknd. A 50/50 low & -NAO, Idaho Ridge, blocking over the Hudson Bay, and trough moving into the east Pac. Couldn`t ask for a better synoptic setup, but the formation of a storm remains in the details of this highly sensitive pattern. Latest guidance does reveal northern stream energy is a little stronger and further west/slower. Therefore, eventual ULL is slower to push eastward and slightly further west. This has resulted in a slight shift west in recent storm tracks. Will have to continue to monitor if this is a trend or noise. While the ceiling is certainly high for this storm, there is equally if not higher odds it just skirts out to sea. Future runs will have to be seen if this is a trend or noise. How the TPV evolves will be one of the biggest factors on if this storm comes to fruition or not and impacts land. TPVs are notoriously not modeled well given the source location with limited UA data. Therefore, expect fluctuations over the next day or so until the pattern is better sampled as associated energy is onshore across the western US. -

Tough one to measure. Snow depth was a pretty uniform 7-8 inches. It was 6 inches shortly after the sleet started. I think I'm going with 8.5" for a total.

SN- in North Bethesda.

It's been old for 20 years...

It started off as snow here, but has transitioned to mostly graupel. Areas with mulch and dirt are white. Probably safe to call it a .1", but haven't ventured out to measure. Temps dropped from 37 to 34 with the precip.

Snow and graupel here at 46 degress

That is awesome. Good work to you and @wxmeddler! Any details on locations?

That was fun. Now let's see if we can do that for several hours instead of 10 minutes! -
A little bit of sleet in N. Bethesda.
