NorthArlington101 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Went right to -sn. Radar looks great. I've been tracking this storm for over 1,000 days. I might blow a gasket. Bob, I always forget where you are. You are a good 20 miles from DC right? Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Actually an interesting double lift / enhancement pattern emerging from the current radar and it picked up by some ensembles but I couldn't figure out what it was. IN RED: Lift associated with 500mb divergence and 700mb lift, best "sypnoptic" lift if you will. IN GREEN: Lift associated with 850mb wind convergence and the surface/low level temp gradient.
