weatherwiz Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 This has been very fascinating watching on radar/satellite over the past several hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomNH Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 FWIW, snowing pretty hard at State College PA, while the NAM had virtually nothing for them. Gotta watch the nw side of these systems as always. Hopefully that keeps up, for my sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutmegfriar Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Come on guys, why shouldn't this be a place for a 10-year old? This is probably one of, if not the best place to go to if you want to learn about the weather/science. If I knew weather boards existed when I was 10 I would have been on them every second of my free time. All I'm going to say on this so this doesn;t get any more OT than it is. So, 10 year olds should hear about how much cheap beer you drink? C'mon. Be real. Get this thread back to the storm, which is overperforming for some areas.

Tropopause_Fold Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Aren't they awesome. yeah they are pretty cool. you can tell that a big chunk of the low levels are like 0 to -3C cuz these flakes get enormous every now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I put that in the wrong thread...... Was just typing: I'm in Riverhead, eastern Suffolk County, Long Island now and it has turned to light sleet with some fzra or rn mixed in. At times flakes get the upper hand when you get a heavier burst. 3 inches is down here from earlier. Should be an interesting ride home to about the Mid Hudson Valley ...then I guess I'll pass north of this storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I can get WBZ well on the radio here and they were saying only a few inches in the Worcester Hills...seems low to me, but who knows.

HarveyLeonardFan Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 This event reminds me of the storm that hit us on January 20-21....2001. The day of the Bush Inaugural. It was a quick hitter...on average about 8 inches for the area. It was a fun storm because the snowfall rates were impressive. But nevertheless this day wil live in infamy.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Talking mainly about the current surface depiction, WV, Radar, trajectory, etc. rather than the models - although it doesnt hurt to have the most recent model show a good solution. Check the current 3 hr surface pressure drops off the mid atl, just about perfect IMO - rapid intensification and consolidation of the energy in the system should yield a really good result for much of the area (and intensification supported by the lightning strikes and convective look to the radar in that area). Plus as others have pointed out, the northern wave seems to be hitting a brick wall (although that battle is not yet decided imo and something to keep watching). The northern system hasn't run into a brick wall. It's clearly beginning to exert an influence in NW PA, and overall the last few frames the system in the south looks to be going east as much as it is ENE. It's expected to turn more north in time...but http://www.rap.ucar.edu/weather/satellite/displaySat.php?region=ALB&itype=wv&size=large&endDate=20110126&endTime=-1&duration=6 It's no doubt feeling the shove. i can't say for sure. soundings are certainly marginal. there are probably pockets of warmer air tucked in here and there...as evidence by the thickness values we are seeing modeled. if you lose the heavier precip it can flip and then flip back. there was also some strong echoes coming in SW of you at that time so maybe some kind of weird temporary weakening to the ENE of it for a brief time. who knows. regardless i think overall the big thump later on should be predominantly snow. monster flakes here. HUGE. 1.4", heavy wet snow. Already a mess to shovel. Very very light snow here now. Radar is pooping out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 RUC forecast for 4z from 2 hours ago and current. Note that 2 hours ago it had a pretty good band of snow over Albany, that and the entire thing to the NW slipped SE. It's definitely come some right ideas, but it's been running a bit too far NW each cycle and slowly corrects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 The RUC went crazy during the Boxing Day storm and nailed us near Albany ....only to back off and miss us with the heavy bands.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I cannot believe how bad the RUC has been with this thing so far lol It was good this morning for the first pulse...but it's doing the SE shift like it always does. How much who knows but now it's back to keeping most of storm part 2 out of ENY up by albany. This is the change in a single cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
