    GFS snows west of the fall line this run
  2. rjvanals
    It wouldn’t be shocking—but if you look at the soundings, we’re barely isothermal, which leaves us no room for error.

    The lack of replies shows how well the GFS is regarded

    Canadian gives us some wet snow changing over to rain but it's trending in the wrong direction
  5. rjvanals
    Euro is cold enough for snow at the 850 level but 925 level is a few degrees to warm
  6. rjvanals
    It’s an ugly run but we wouldn’t trust the GFS if it showed a snowstorm at hr 144 so why trust it now?

    Looking at the 3k NAM it'ss interesting to see areas near ice covered water struggling to get above freezing tomorrow

    New Euro weeklies don’t look great

    Love the consistency of the GFS

    The GFS has been on a heater this year forecasting phantom snowstorms
  11. rjvanals
    True but at least it’s felt like winter rather than watching daffodils grow in January. The January storm is one that won’t be forgotten for a while.

    Regardless of what happens w the rest of the winter it’s been memorable w the extended cold and snowpack

    It’s crazy how DC will have an above freezing high temp for today
  14. rjvanals
    Looks like a bit of light snow/flurries at Whitetail

    I’m fine with the Canadian and UKMET keeping things south of us—once a system gets north, it rarely comes back south

    The GFS has been amazing on this storm

    If forecasting the weather seven days out were as simple as looking at the Euro and calling it gospel, I wouldn’t find it nearly as compelling. The real fascination lies in the uncertainty of what might unfold.

    Yeah we mostly get scraped and no flush hits w low end warning being our upside

    18z Euro gives me 2010 Boxing Day anxiety I’d rather it just miss out to sea
  20. rjvanals
    18z GFS was predicting nearly an inch of snow for DCA tonight
  21. rjvanals
    NAM 3k still likes a dusting through the metro this evening
  22. rjvanals
    For DC looks like 75% misses 20% smaller hits in the 1-3 range and one bigger hit
  23. rjvanals
    Still a bit to early to completely bail on this especially if the goal is a low end warning event around the metro area
  24. rjvanals
    Ask yourself how confident would you be in Raleigh or Norfolk that you’d be getting a blizzard this weekend?
  25. rjvanals
    I generally take GFS runs that show 30 inches of snow in Raleigh and 2 feet in Norfolk in 96 hrs as Gospel w no chance it might be wrong
