vespasian70 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 We're in a spot now where a GFS/NAM compromise would be a good thing. We'd still see some mixing, but we'd get the higher snowfall totals. Kinda what I'm thinking too. Plenty of time for this to trend more in our favour too.

RitualOfTheTrout Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 U guys remember Jerry Martz? He used to be on channel 6 & fox 28. He posted on his facebook that it will be an all rain event here? Not sure what he is looking at. He was a TV Met here in Pittsburgh, I think on WTAE for awhile. He also taught part time at Penn State NK, I had him for class, Intro to Meteorology as an elective. He was a pretty nice guy, fun to BS with, but seemed like he always leaned conservative. Not surprising though, more often that not things don't come together for big snows as we all know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 You guys can have this Tuesday night deal up in central Ohio. I may get over half a foot tonight! Under a warning and steady moderate snow right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As is, it's a huge icestorm. yea brutal...at time of heaviest precip it's 27.5 surface temps and +1.5 850. Hopefully soundings would be sleet, I hate sleet but the last thing I need this week is to lose power. Actually hopefully the nam is just wrong.

buckeye Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 the nam cut qpf by about 30% from 18z. I'm not too worried about that since these systems can trend juicier as they get closer....more concerned with getting that low southeast of us.

My daughter is a sophomore down there and I texted her to get ready for it earlier. weird, my daughter is also an OU sophomore. I just texted her and she had no idea they might get 4-7 Inches!

OHweather Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 looking at radar you guys are gonna get slammed. My daughter is a sophomore down there and I texted her to get ready for it earlier. We're already at 2.5" and have several hours of moderate to heavy snow to go. This is awesome! weird, my daughter is also an OU sophomore. I just texted her and she had no idea they might get 4-7 Inches! I was there in the early eighties and good snows were rare. They're doing pretty good this year. Sent from my Nexus 7 Small world. I'm a junior at OU We are doing relatively good this year. Our biggest storm thus far has been 5.7" and that was on 1/25...we could very well pass that tonight.

wxdudemike Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Dare I say it, the GFS may almost be cold enough for all snow? 1000-500 thickness gets to 542, but need to see sounding. NAM sounding shows lots of ZR not sleet for CMH. Warm layer is way too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM sounding shows lots of ZR not sleet for CMH. Warm layer is way too big. Correct on the nam. Temp hoovers around 30° with freezing rain. Starts out as a brief period of snow but quickly turns over to ZR and remains that way until some back side flurries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Canadian looks a bit stronger and a shade east of 12z....hard to tell for sure on the maps, but it looks like it crushes central and western OH into IN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Check out the 0z Ukie. Looks pretty close to being really good for you guys. looks a lot like the ggem, amazing consistency on the low placement around sw PA, northern WV...for the last 4 or 5 days. Of course that does not mean there isn't PLENTY of time for this to pull a shuffle either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 00z euro from wxbell Columbus and surrounding never gets above 0 850. Axis of heaviest is now a bit south of CMH on a line from between Dayton and Cincy thru Fayette county and east. 12-14" in that axis with 10-12" in Columbus area. take it for what it's worth. All I care about is the euro hasn't waivered on track and has continually ticked colder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Euro isn't bad. Still too warm at 850. Soo with that said.. I wanna see the 6z and 12z runs then I'm gonna make a map.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilly84 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 If you're at cmh the euro is good. But east/north east of Columbus around newark, zanesville, coshocton, half falls as zr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I still think 24 hours before I'm ready to drop a forecast...00z tomorrow. If I was making a call now, I'd go with significant ice accums followed by a few inches of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
