NCSNOW Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 What was the ukie qpf at 12z. I know the 850 line never got futher west than Laurinburg to Elizabeth City line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skbl17 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 CMC is a fantastic run for metro Atlanta, with sub-freezing 850s south of I-20 and significant precip. Clown maps indicate large swaths of 7-9" (even though it's likely that we don't see quite that much). Wow... Also liking the tick south on the UKMET. Now to wait for the 0z Euro.

Wow Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 For NC, the canadian brought the precip field further north while maintaining the same low position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Does anyone think there could be a tongue of overrunning precip that shoots out a few hours before the models predict? I know that was discussed a lot last week. yes..the old finger of snow should be poking at someone i would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGoose69 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 CMC is a really good run for the ATL weenies The UKMET track honestly does not look bad for them at all but its too warm at 850, it is colder than the 12Z run though, this run does give them about 1 inch of snow late Wednesday night, the previous run gave them nothing...I don't have much experience using the UKIE on borderline scenarios like this in the south so I cannot say if it could be running a tad warmer than reality, I'd think ATL would snow on that track though.

superjames1992 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 For NC, the canadian brought the precip field further north while maintaining the same low position. I remember on Allan's old site (I think?... or was it HKY WX's?) he plotted the mean 6"+ snowfall low locations for RDU and HKY and they generally were surprisingly far offshore and not too different than what we're looking at now. --- Anyways, the 00z GEFS definitely ticked NW, so that's a good sign for most of us.

griteater Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Anyways, the 00z GEFS definitely ticked NW, so that's a good sign for most of us. Aside from just wanting a massive hit, it's hard not to like the GFS and Euro Ensemble Means for Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh areas (just to name a few). The GFS Ens Mean is just a tad southeast of the Euro Ens Mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKY_WX Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I remember on Allan's old site (I think?... or was it HKY WX's?) he plotted the mean 6"+ snowfall low locations for RDU and HKY and they generally were surprisingly far offshore and not too different than what we're looking at now. --- Anyways, the 00z GEFS definitely ticked NW, so that's a good sign for most of us. I think we've both done a study on the climo tracks for snow and ice. Allan still has his somewhere on the web. I think mine was a thread either here or back on easternwx. The euro track is pretty good for both locations. Hickory snow track is from the northern gulf, crossing over the florida panhandle and up the coast just offshore. Raleigh's is from the northern gulf, crossing over northern fl peninsula and then up the coast about 50-100 miles offshore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rankin5150 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 For NC, the canadian brought the precip field further north while maintaining the same low position. That sounds like good news. The Canadian has performed well in a LOT of Carolina Storms (or at least close enough, etc.). Do you have a colored graphic? Thanks JWow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 And now the Euro is on the S/E side of guidance. What a difference a day makes, and strange to see from the Euro. Definitely a better run for AL/GA/SC. NC is 2-4" for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklecity Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 How long did the low stay closed? Did it open quicker than before? Just curious because sometimes they stay closed longer than modeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a better run for AL/GA/SC. NC is 2-4" for the most part. looks like a better run for NC IMO, outside of the mountains RDU Is 5", 12z had 4" Widespread 10-11" east of 1-95 (kinda like the 18z NAM)...really jackpots eastern NC. Harnett County south still gets 7-8" It's actually not as heavy as the 12z was for NW GA border just west of ATL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harnett County south still gets 7-8" It's actually not as heavy as the 12z was for NW GA border just west of ATL. Jon, RDU's 5" is really only 3" from the 2/25 storm as the Euro inexplicably drops 2" at RDU tomorrow. It also drops 2-4" of snow across much of SE NC, which makes it look heavier than it is there. For 24-hr totals from the 2/25-26 storm alone, I am getting: CLT: 3" GSO: 2" RDU: 3" Rockingham: 5" PGV: 7" (Packbacker's jackpot!) Looks like the max of 6-8" runs from SE of Fayetteville up through and just NE of PGV. I might be making too much over small changes, though.

Jon Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 How is the Euro looking for the Upstate? Central upstate, if that's a thing, is 5-6"...CAE is around 2-4", western upstate is around 5-6" and NE upstate is 4-8" with higher totals near NC border. Biggest change from 12z is involving CAE going from T-1" to 2-4" Edit: sorry this is total snowfall through Thursday unless you get in on any action tomorrow.

griteater Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 How long did the low stay closed? Did it open quicker than before? Just curious because sometimes they stay closed longer than modeled. The wave was very similar. These are mainly just wobbles in the Euro model runs IMO. The uncertainty cone has tightened for sure over the last 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, seriously, if the worst snowfall (aside from the hopefully lost GFS) still shows 2-3", I guess that says something. --- BTW, Chris/Delta, I think your call map looks pretty good at this point.
