downeastnc Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Not sure I like being under that probability of having more than 4" haha! PS: FFC will issue Winter Storm WATCHES soon... For who, I'm not sure yet. PSS: Tallahassee has already issued theirs for south GA/SE AL/Parts of FL panhandle for possibility of up to 0.2" of freezing rain followed by up to 0.5" of snow/sleet. Fun times. well I don't envy you your job the next 48 hrs or so....good luck lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also snow starting Tues by 4pm ending Wed by noon that seems a bit quicker huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrel2 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 The biggest thing I notice so far on the 18z NAM is that the heights are a little higher out ahead of the system. This is probably just as important as anything else in determining how far north the precip gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sounds that close Just depends on the setup in Dec 2000 we had 8-10" here and 45 miles west they has 1-2" and RDU had zip, during the Crusher they had 18-20" 60 miles west of here but we only got 6".

SN_Lover Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 ATL and CLT just can't win this year. Models have been consistently projecting little snow for Charlotte. I think it's time to narrow the snow area to areas East of ATL-CLT-RDU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably just as important as anything else in determining how far north the precip gets. Agree. It looks like the models are coming more into agreement that the northern stream wave isn't going to dig well to the southwest, but if the flow along the east coast can back to the SW a little more, that would aid in getting the precip shield a bit farther to the northwest. I suppose the faster the arctic shortwaves tracking through the Great Lakes clear to the northeast, the more the east coast winds will try to back to the SW.

packfan98 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 The SREF has really been holding with the bullishness on points west. Wonder if it's seeing the cold as slightly less intense and thus, less suppressing... The 15z has significantly backed off precip in the far west. I believe that a few of the members were phasing the energy allowing for massive amounts of precip. These outliers really skewed the mean too high. If you look at the SREF plume charts you can really see the spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowlover91 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 The SREF has really been holding with the bullishness on points west. Wonder if it's seeing the cold as slightly less intense and thus, less suppressing... The SREF shifted further east on the most recent run, this looks like primarily an I-95 to coastal storm for the Carolinas. I think west of Raleigh will see a sharp cutoff judging by current models.

RaleighWx Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 NAM really beefed up 700mb RH/omega to the west this run, but so far hasnt translated to really much precip over western/central Carolinas. That subcloud layer dryness must be really stout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUESDAY NIGHT...DANGEROUS CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE PEAK OF THE WINTER STORM IMPACTS THE AREA. LOW PRESSURE WILL BE FOUND OFFSHORE OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA/GEORGIA COASTS IN A USUALLY CLIMATOLOGICALLY FAVORED LOCATION FOR WINTER STORMS.

ALOFT...A POWERFUL UPPER JET APPROACHING 150 KT WILL STRETCH FROM THE DEEP SOUTH INTO THE NORTHEAST U.S. WITH THE AREA POSITIONED IN THE FAVORABLE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION. THE RESULTING JET FORCING WITH IMPRESSIVE 700MB VERTICAL VELOCITIES SUGGEST PRECIPITATION WILL BLOSSOM AND BECOME WIDESPREAD TUESDAY NIGHT. VARYING THERMAL PROFILES RESULTING FROM A NUMBER OF DYNAMIC/THERMODYNAMIC PROCESSES POINT TO A HIGHLY COMPLICATED P-TYPE FORECAST...WHICH WILL HAVE SOME INFLUENCE ON SNOW/ICE ACCUMULATIONS. IT APPEARS ATTM THERE WILL BE ENOUGH DYNAMIC COOLING AND HEAVY ENOUGH PRECIPITATION RATES TO SUPPORT FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET TRANSITIONING TO ALL SNOW ACROSS THE INTERIOR BEFORE MIDNIGHT...WITH THE TRANSITION LINE TO ALL SNOW SLOWLY WORKING EAST TO THE COAST BY SUNRISE WEDNESDAY AS LOW PRESSURE BEGINS TO PULL AWAY FROM THE AREA. A SLOWER TRANSITION FROM FREEZING RAIN/SLEET AT THE COAST SUGGESTS THERE WILL BE INCREASED RISK FOR DAMAGING ICE ACCUMULATIONS IN EXCESS OF 1/4 INCH WITH ABOUT 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW...WHILE FARTHER INLAND...A QUICKER TRANSITION TO SNOW AND HEAVIER PRECIPITATION RATES COULD SUPPORT 3-4 INCHES ON TOP OF DANGEROUS ICE ACCUMULATIONS OF 1/2 TO 1 INCH.

GIVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS...SOME POTENTIALLY LASTING FOR DAYS...A WINTER STORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL OF SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEAST GEORGIA FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING. POPS WILL BE INCREASED TO 80 PERCENT AREA WIDE WITH LOWS IN THE THE MID-UPPER 20S...EXCEPT LOWER 20S WELL INLAND. NORTH WINDS OF 10-15 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS WILL SUPPORT WIND CHILLS OF 10-15 DEGREES...BUT WILL ALSO INCREASE THE RISK FOR DAMAGE TO TREES AND POWERLINES.

beanskip Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I agree -- somewhat of a gutsy call to go with WSW a full 48 hours from impact but, as they rightly argue, potential impact is dramatic enough to warrant the decision.

To say this would be very bad for the low country is a massive understatement. 1/2 to 1" of ice raises hell in the mountains where wind and frequent snow and ice events cause an ongoing pruning effect. If this comes to pass the power trucks will be rolling in from all over the east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
