Oh wow look outside and a nice, steady snow falling

All the details and such can be ironed out as we get closer but there is a ton to be excited and happy about at this time range. There is going to be no shortage of moisture with this and if we can get the final evolution to be very close to what the general consensus is, it's going to be a big hit over a very large area - obviously there will be mesoscale factors at play which result in some getting "screwed" and some "overperforming" but lets keep this signal for a powerhouse of WAA feeding into the airmass that will be in place, and with the thermal profile and temperature gradient (upward) velocities would be great over the entire area

Went to the AMS in Austin in 2018 and we got stuck in Austin for an extra two days because our flight got cancelled for wintry precip. The whole town of Austin was virtually shut down...not a single car on the road. They legit got like 2 second of sleet haha. Missed the first two days of the spring semester.

I see it now...I looked further ahead to Sunday with I guess if you want to call it the second wave

Wow I'm shocked to see Winter Storm Watch as far south as Houston (looks like for ice)...I don't see anything indicating they will get icing that far south. I know that far south it takes like 3 drops of frozen liquid but very odd

Right Probably something you'd see in like central Alaska lol

This is wild ha

Ahh this makes sense. I hate how products are limited on weathermodels but my initial thinking was whether the 12z Euro was like occluding things a bit quicker the way it was kind of tapering down the QPF towards the end.

Any mixing issues would probably be more towards the end of the storm...I don't think mixing would be an issue during the bulk

I'll take QPF underdone for $1000, please

1-1.5" of QPF in that airmass, especially if you're maximizing lift is going to produce some significant snowfall accumulations. That would certainly be high end...unless we're using something like 2-3 feet to define high end lol

Euro starting to load in on weathermodels

I've noticed the euro has been a bit late the past several days (at least on weathermodels). Even the 12z GFS bufkit was late on pennstate today

Verbatim on the GFS I think you would see a major band well up to the Mass Pike. Imagine if we were to pop at 700 low...damn

dendrite should just create an algorithm that blocks the posting of snow maps
