WxUSAF Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 It’s becoming clear that we probably can’t “win” with both this small event and the weekend storm as this storm sets the boundary position. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachin Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 This event should be good for us up north. Likely to warm south of 70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want #1 further south, so that you have more wiggle room when #2 gets here or you stand to taint/changeover to sleet/freezing rain, or plain rain when you lose the cold in the lower/mid levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris78 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Consensus seems to be 1 to 3 inches for the northern and western tiers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s good. Could be a decent little event. HP is not in an ideal position but it’s also not terrible. Majority of precip comes at night. Amazing how if this event was coming last week at this point, this thread would be like 30 pages... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 from LWX and their morning AFD Low pressure will approach from the west on Thursday and pass to the northwest Thursday night. Light precipitation will accompany this system, focused on the afternoon and evening hours. Cold air from the transient high will remain in place, so it appears at least some of the precipitation will be wintry in nature. As the low nears, warmer air will advect in aloft, so snow will become less likely, with sleet, freezing rain, and rain all possible depending on thermal profiles. Surface temperatures are most likely to remain above freezing south/east of I-95. Regardless of what type of precipitation falls, amounts would most likely fall into the winter weather advisory category given the light nature of the event.

I think we want it stronger to help compress the flow some. It's weaker than 6z for sure but I'm not smart enough to know exactly how one effects the other.
