It could be suspect but i'm hearing talks about a "wrinkle" in the equation and a northern piece that started showing up on the models very recently? A wrinkle? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm responsible for using that term...lol When I said wrinkle, I was referring to the possible capture and phase solution that the EURO and 18z GFS seemed to try to do (but on those particular runs, it happened too late) That was something that wasn't there before.

NorthArlington101 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 FV3 out on TTT, FWIW. I'm assuming the thing over Iowa is the new piece of the puzzle that's kicking the storm out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you click on GFS, you get the parallel GFS, which is the FV3GFS. If you don't believe me, check out the 12z 'GFS' on mageval and compare it to the TT FV3GFS plots. Appreciate the response. I didn’t realize I needed to open the parallel version. Learn something new everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you are thinking Boxing Day 2010. January 25 2000 was kinda like the situation we have now, was supposed to stay south, but decided to head north. Forecast went from partly cloudy to winter storm warnings and 12 inches of snow in about 6 hours. Ultimate weenie Hail Mary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The storm went negative tilt in SC and was forecast to go out to sea. The 500mb low phased and caught it and had it ride up the coast. Forecasts went from sunny to winter storm warnings slowly northward from SC to MD. 10 to 20 inches fell.. All a surprise because models kept missing the phase and capture 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the models seem to be focusing on central VA/NW NC, the energy won't arrive on the west coast until late thursday/early friday. Once that happens with observations can get fed into the model and there will (hopefully) be much more agreement/consistency 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGolfBro Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 There are so many players in this game right now any one of them could be modeled just slightly wrong and it would have a huge effect on the whole game. Definitely worth extrapolating the NAM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if the 0z suite tonight doesn't trend back north with the storm, I'm starting to think it's option 2 or nothing for us. I think option 1 would be pretty hard to come by at that point.
