  1. That is very very good news… not from a “potentially snowier” weenie perspective, but in terms of perhaps less impacts/power outages/accidents.
  2. Mix line on 18z nam most similar to 12z yesterday at the same hour (06z Sun). That run doesn’t flip DC until 14z
  3. Nowcast comparison for 19z: Decent agreement, good initialization for HRRR
  4. Comparing gfs forecast for 18z today with current radar Seems faster? Sleet line a bit south
  5. There’s that GL low. AI is “learning” about those
  6. I think its a little bit of both. Models touched on the right idea over 10 days ago when they wanted to cut the storm west of us. Gfs had that, just too extreme with 80” snowfall in PA. That’s characteristic of ninas. But then they went way south with all that cold. We still have the cold, but models returned to their original idea.
  7. It would have been a rainstorm if our temps were even in the climo range
  8. Split the difference since you’re further north/NE. 5-9” perhaps
  9. Sticking with the middle of the road forecast I made earlier, not panicking over the bad CAM runs. 4-8” mix/ice DC metro, 6-10” sleet fest with some zr NW
  10. Yeah I thought a lot more zr, but no, just drier with precip max across PA. So far it’s an outlier
  11. Nowcast precip shield more expansive than 3k nam forecast for 14-15z, with the ice line a tick further south than modeled. But just a little bit
  12. We’ve busted low recently because the temps had been too warm at the surface - is the main reason. But that’s not the case now.
  13. 8/-8 looks like euro/gfs are in agreement… and at odds with nam/rrfs
  14. Idk, maybe something to do with gridding on its own data
  15. Its complex, but the simple answer is that the storm is phasing much farther west than ideal for an all snow event with no temp issues. It’s still cold though.
  16. Not me. I didn’t really believe the suppressed scenario and kept saying it would come north. And it did… more than I thought.
