87storms Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 7 minutes ago, DSF said: Yeah fair points. Really what I meant is that a number of events that looked like they would amount to almost nothing actually gave people measureable snow/white roads etc. Edit: And it's very location dependent...some people got fringed repeatedly. When you get right down to it, I really just wanted to make a pig pun. true, and i'd be lying if i said i don't like how the radar looks for round 1 even down towards the cities. would be kinda funny if we overperform on this initial batch. i think in general we've overperformed on precip for the last 6-9 months, so i don't see why this one won't do the same barring temps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Expecting to get fringed here. Every model showing a lot more snow along the MD line than along i70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was not even a SECS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Expecting to see the northern tier reporting lots of sleet w the 2nd wave. Most snow accums limited to 2-3" in the best areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite a range for your criteria. I agree 12"+ would be a MECS, but that's not what we had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the threshold for a HECS and BECS? Propose something on the order of 24"+ is HECS territory and 30"+ is a BECS... Add winds over 30 kts to the mix and drop the thresholds 6" each. Winds 50kts and over with anything over 12" is a BECS. Blizzard of 78 in the midwest was definitely a BECS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
