Pittsburgh, PA/Western PA Fall/Winter Discussion 2022-23


Recommended Posts

Yep still a big storm signal but that particular solution would leave us with nothing to show for with the cold front coming through. Northern stream digs so far south that we miss out on even light accumulation and coastal pops too far east.

Unfortunately gefs is south east of the GFS. Still a lot of time but this just feels like an I95 storm.

CMC lost the storm I hear.  So...quite the range at this point.  Guess we'll see what the next Euro throws out.

 

GFS mean did increase snowfall around 1"-1.5".  So, that's good.

The snow mean actually looks decent so there must be some solutions with a track more inland than the op.

Need it to go negative sooner and close off. Still 200 hours out but I still hold firmly that my prediction is this is a coastal.

I don't have a real solid feeling one way or the other on this right now. The ridge axis is further east out west and the confluence from the low trapped under the block is stronger and we don't see a clean phase on the 12z runs today so that makes North and East closer to the coast areas favored. Whether we see enough changes in any of those to get a bigger impact storm here or that the trend continues the other way is anyone's guess.

Yep honestly give me like 3 or 4 and some snow falling on Christmas and I'd call it a win. Don't need a HECS 

Yeah, usually because we are screwed on those anyway.  Plenty of time for the storm to get better for us though, heck there were cutters on the models yesterday, now some are much further east.  Still can find a sweet spot.

They always say the big ones are sniffed out early.  Jinx city.

Seriously, though, the means on both the GFS and Euro are kind of ridiculous at this range.  It's still too far out to say and we could easily get away from bombogenesis, but the signals are there and have been for days now.  It might come down to which system ends up evolving into a bigger one (23rd or later on the 27th).

Fwiw Bernie isn't sold on this being a coastal. He actually thinks it has a better chance of being a borderline cutter which looking at the guidance sounds insane. However he is the expert, that gfs solution is crazy though.

Borderline cutter doesn’t sound too bad as long as it doesn’t cut too hard.

Do you think he's considering it a borderline cutter or just running inland meaning like up I-95?  Apparently, other mets are leaning toward an inland solution.

Don't storms kind of travel along the previous snow line, so maybe that zone is where the next low runs up.

I'm not sure he's doing another Twitter live at 730-8 so I may listen and see his thoughts if I remember. He said the models are doing the windshield wiper effect.

This should be fun to track. Honestly seems like the ceiling for this is really huge. Somebodynis gonna get a huge storm the question is where. Idk how good Bernie is but he's still sticking with his west of 95 call. 

Let’s hope he knows his stuff.  A track west of 95, (at least just west) could be massive for us.  You’re right the ceiling is high for someone.

I agree, could still go down the toilet but most solutions get us some snow. Not being an all or nothing deal takes some of the edge off so tracking is fun.
