burgertime Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Oh 18z how you make us laugh. It has a NC snow storm at 264...sfc temps are terrible but hell it looks good to me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Odd on SV it has the 850 line way down south into southern AL...but on Instantweathermaps it has it way up north. Hmmm.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Via SV maps on 18z at 264 a low is crawling up the NC coast with moisture just exploding. By 272 sfc temps get to freezing. RDU would be the big winner on this one run. Leave it to the 18z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very odd, the MAG site has the snowstorm and I see what you mean about Instant Weather maps. I believe SV and the MAG site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxictwister00 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Odd on SV it has the 850 line way down south into southern AL...but on Instantweathermaps it has it way up north. Hmmm.. On the Raleigh site, it's all the way down to the Central Gulf Coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I only know it's happened once in 124 years where RDU didn't see at least a trace of snow, based upon Allen's site, which is now down. Good Lord. Allen has pushed his computer off of the fall line. (no real cliffs in Raleigh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 The storm also has a very odd 500mb depiction, I'm not gonna even try and decipher it. Time for a met to chime in. All I can say is it looks like a nice big ridge out west punching well into western and northern Canada is responsible for the odd end of the run.

burrel2 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Odd on SV it has the 850 line way down south into southern AL...but on Instantweathermaps it has it way up north. Hmmm.. Instantweather has been like that for quite some time. The surface temp and 850 temp maps that include rainfall are messed up. If you click on the 850mp temp/pres/wind map it will show the accurate readings at 850mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Who needs a met....its the 18z GFS ....its crap The 18Z and 6Z GFS runs are no worse or better than their 12z and 0z counterparts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Problem is that we all know the detail of the storm is too far off to trust (to even say there will be storm). Also looks like the cold that comes down after the storm is a product of the storm pulling cold down. so if there is no storm, the pattern to me looks warm.

CAD_Wedge_NC Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Savor it now...bullseye! Maybe this will be enough to bring some folks back from the cliff. After all the flipping and flopping the models have put us through, wouldn't it be funny if this fantasy storm were to actually verify. Ah what am I saying......it will be gone with the next run. At least this run of the GFS does have a somewhat colder look than what we have been seeing lately but I am not going to get any hopes up until the EURO is showing some cold.

dsaur Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Very odd, the MAG site has the snowstorm and I see what you mean about Instant Weather maps. I believe SV and the MAG site. Yep, two out of three! So, now if the 0z has it....well, something is up, or it's broke I figure I've got one, maybe two chances before the end of Feb. Most likely zrain/sleet, because temps might be marginal If the real cold does set up after mid Feb there'll be chances or two for most of march from timing, and cad and gulf activity, then the end of March/early April a chance at a cold cut off. We've had two in 4 years down here, so why not? While last two years were great for all of you, they sort of stunk for me sledding, with the pitiful amounts that fell after dry slotting, melting quickly, and, actually the 8 or so inches I got from the two late season ULL's melted right away too....mostly as it was falling. So, I'm ready to say, I'd prefer zrain to melty snow this year, because I'd at least get to sled on it, lol.. because by definition the surfaces would be freezing, unlike during the ULL's. Don't let Larry know I said that I think he is content, and won't be checking the board too much to catch me, lol. One moderate/weak gulf storm and some iffy cold and a chance at timing, is all I want at this point. And I think that is most likely to be my best shot from what the models show of hit and run/ shallow cold. If some real cold comes, I get my shot at a sleet/snow storm, say from around Valentines on. Sure, I may be crazy, probably am.... but I never give up...ever And as long as the rain keeps showing up there are possibilities each time.

burgertime Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Savor it now...bullseye! Interesting, right around MBY. I didn't get a chance to look at the snow map but I figured just verbatim RDU would have fared much better but perhaps it was just too close to that low.

T I don't see us getting a freezing rain or sleet event in February. In fact, I don't recall a single freezing rain or sleet event in Atlanta in the last 15 years in the month of February.
