Snowchaser Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 GFS still gave about 6-7 inches of snow to CHO before mixing. West of Washington and i95 still get snow with this last run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowchaser Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 We should be going out past December storms as well . Models+past storms= solid forecast 2003 and 2009 come to mind with this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob your right the gfs progression is not one the D.C. area typically scores a warning type event. That's probably an advisory snow to mix to rain type thing that evolution. But it's also not as far off as those thermals suggest either. The gfs has been running way way way too warm at the surface and mid levels in these types of situations again and again. Unless I see a thermal representation like that from the other guidance I wouldn't put much stock in it. There have been some runs of the Fv3 with a similar track and yea we mixed and rained but the thermals weren't as bad and there was more front end thump and even after the change it wasn't as bad as that panel. That's probably because the Fv3 has been doing better with the boundary and mid level temps. So I'm agreeing that the gfs as it is wouldn't be a great solution I don't think it's as far from one as those panels suggest. Get the transfer 50-75 miles southeast (a minuscule error for 180 hours) and it's a pretty good warning level event into 95 imo. Probably still would mix some but it's early December! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a big hit for many of us as is. Lets not forget the Euro's temps at 12Z. I am not going to stress over the GFS temps at 8 days out. We all know the cold air will be entrenched better than what the model is showing. I was more worried about seeing a southern slider this run. Just keep the low position as shown for the next 8 days and I think most of us will end up very happy. Maybe not the eastern shore folks. But just about everyone else.

CAPE Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Not much of a warm up on the 18z GEFS. Maybe a few days approaching 50? That is a couple degrees above avg for mid Dec. Not a favorable pattern for winter weather, but far from having the look of an early winter torch. Looks like the pattern should be moving towards more favorable as we approach the holidays. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I will not for one minute wish this storm north of the current euro solution or any other suppressed solution. I think there are many here who know that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
