Voyager Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 29 minutes ago, Blizzard of 93 said: The models are now playing the back & forth game for next weekend. The GFS went from Apps runner to suppressed southern slider. The Euro went from near perfect track major snowstorm yesterday to a suppressed southern slider overnight. All solutions are on the table for a few more days. We have played this game many times over the years. Hopefully this time we end up winning a winter storm this time ! Did you see the snow maps from 318 to 342? Gives the coastal plain from Savannah to Virginia Beach a solid 6-12 inches...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 15 minutes ago, Bubbler86 said: Unfortunately that's probably the game we play trying to hope for a partial phase. It's a one in whatever chance. We just need a decent storm track that goes under us to our east while the low is strengthening. We are still in peak climo for winter temps. The I-95 crowd might struggle unless they get a perfect track. Back here in the interior, we stand a better chance with a slightly less than ideal track. I would be fine with a run 3-6 or 4-8 inch type of snowstorm. The chance of a magical 1-2 feet historic snow storm is always remote. I do like the change this time that suppression is on the table. That gives us a wide range of potential, & supports the idea of a storm possibly going under us. We will see what 12z has to say in the game of weather model roulette.

Much better than seeing Midwest snow & hoping it corrects south or east, which rarely happens. This time, the possible solutions are different. We haven’t seen looks this year with suppression even being a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I can concur with @Cashtown_Coop....1.44" of rainfall overnight. Wow. Actually, I was saying to my wife yesterday that up until then this month had been quite dry. I only had 1.24" of liquid through yesterday. Now, that just literally more than doubled to 2.68". Still below normal precip for Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boo radley Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Not going to lie the Southeast forum annoys me at times, will have a huge severe event unfolding in their backyard but be talking about a possible cool down at 276 hours on GFS.

A decent coastal will work just fine this time of year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasnownut Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 IMO Too far out to really dig deep. With the variability on the models we need some continuity. Best takeaway is that we have stuff to track and if all works out we will need plows n shovels. Personally I’m happy to be in the game. Looking forward to tracking what seems like a legit threat window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really no cold air to work with except the layers above which means has to be heavy snow assuming those panels are exact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a good tracking coastal this time of year, we have a chance here in the interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no torch this week, just slightly above average for late January can get it done here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 The 12z Euro has a deepening coastal storm that develops in the southeast & rides up the coast as it strengthens. To me, the precip shield looks underdone with a storm that deepens from 996 off of the NC coast to 987 near Norfolk then down to 971 off of the NJ coast. I would take my chances with this look for back here in the Susquehanna Valley. We are still 1 week out & the track & strength will of course vary with each model run. I am getting more confident that the models are leaning towards the idea of a coastal storm instead of a cutter or suppressed storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Looks like 1.68" might just do it for this event, unless that band to the west makes it through here. How much did everyone else see? Over in the Philly thread, some have gotten over the 2 inch mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 The 18z GFS shows a deepening low riding up the east coast next weekend. It strengthens from the 990s in the Carolinas to the 970’s by the time it reaches our latitude & then into the 960’s off of the New England coast. Verbatim, this run, the snow stays near I-81, but it would take only a small adjustment to get even our eastern locales into the good snow. I would take my chances with this run.

canderson Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I’d like to say how much I appreciate @Blizzard of 93 and his optimism. I don’t mean this to sound negative but in the past you’d post snow maps which we all know we can’t solely trust blindly. But now you post them which is fun but explain how it can come to fruition despite challenges. i really enjoy them, thank you! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just really enjoy tracking winter storms & this place has a great group ! Hopefully next weekend we are all shoveling, but lots of time to see how things unfold for the better or worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
