Fozz Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 12z RGEM is a bit more realistic now. Similar to the previous run, but with QPF toned down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be some serious rates! May even beat the 2/19 event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re making the case. 38F and/or March sun angle combined with light rates are why it’s not sticking. Just sayin’... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The first part of this system is suspect. The good stuff is later, but tbd on whether temps will cooperate around town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 No precipitation yet downtown dc. People walking around with spring jackets on. Really doesn’t seem like accumulating snow is possible even up at end of the Red line (Shady Grove) but good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peribonca Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 GFS is torching. Wonder if this is the type of system that would have been modeled as a big snowstorm in the cities 10-15 years ago and then busted hard... At least with the better models nowadays we have more realistic expectations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 LWX lower totals yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChangeYourScreenname Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The biggest question at this point is how much temps can fall under the very heavy rates projected. GFS and NAM warm everyone to near 36-40. Dynamic cooling should be decent. That's TBD yet 37 here in bel air dew point is in the 20s tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChangeYourScreenname Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hrdps Much better at the surface 32-33 heavy snow does the work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDM Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 41/31 - dp was up to 32 a few mins ago. If the dp was lower that would certainly help. Saw a post earlier from a Pro Met about the sounding at IAD with the drier layer aloft. Hope that bodes well for at least some white rain here in NOVA. As is, don't see us getting much of anything IVO of MBY. You folks up on Parr's Ridge and NW of MOCO should be setting good. Looks to be some decent rates later on today...
