Is there any benefits or extra stuff you like on weathermodels vs weatherbell? I’ve never purchased wxbell, but the big downside to weathermodels is it’s slower and I can’t zoom closely on ensembles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d sign right now and lock this for all of New England. There’s a limit to far this can go, but much like the south a few hours ago and the Mid-Atlantic right now, I don’t want to be sitting here tomorrow at this time wondering how in the hell a historic Arctic outbreak leads to a coastal blasting the mix line 200 miles to my north. Not saying that’ll happen, but be careful of wanting others to sniff your backside… 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been getting .5 every three day or so and it would be great to actually have to clear some snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying we’re getting screwed or anything…I think we’ll be just fine…but I think tonight shows that we’re not locked into anything yet when the trend is this aggressive. I do think it’ll settle eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortex95 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 1 hour ago, CoastalWx said: Still a great event It is? 00z ECMWF gives 14" 10:1 to DC, while much of SNE only 5-10"? Not good enough for many! The dreaded 700 dry slot makes it presence know and fragments the event. Not what CoastalWx wants to see! And the UKMET supports the ECMWF. The ECMWF has a solid 1040 mb high over BTV at 102 hr, and it still "loses," so to speak. You now have a very strong 500 system, actually cut off over the Upper MS Valley, and swings from positive to negative tilt quickly, but while moving E over srn Ontario and Quebec. This is not good overall for a focused and intense coastal low. So usually the coastal low takes over once forms, but not in this case. It's becomes one of those wishy-washy things when it can't decide which sfc low (primary or secondary) takes over, so you get something less than stellar. Not a smooth event for sure, and inconsistent S+ areas. This is one of oddest evolutions of a East Coast storm I have ever seen, and we went from a suppressed non-event to this? What else is going to change since we are still just over 3 days from the event starting in New England? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahk_webstah Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 When I woke up to pee and saw all the pages I knew. WPC is a little skeptical though Mirage? So how confident are we in this trend, and will it continue or revert back to earlier runs, is the big question. Given the nearly unanimous trend in this direction, and at least a couple model runs in a row showing such a trend, it does seem like this shift has some merit. However, overall run to run consistency has shown pretty large swings with the exact handling of both the southern and northern stream energy. Suspect that the exact details of these features is far from settled upon...especially the northern stream energy which is currently strung out across much of western Canada into the arctic. Thus tend to think that the unanimous model trend could be a slight mirage and suggests more confidence in a solution than there actually is at this point. Either way, it should be stressed that in just about every outcome we get a widespread and major winter storm with many areas getting significant impacts regardless of these exact details. These details are, however, important for exactly where the maximum snow and ice totals occur. The current WPC QPF and temperatures were derived before much of this 00z guidance was available, and thus is a bit south of the new consensus. As described above, no guarantee we dont see a shift back south in later models...but assuming some persistence in the 06z/12z models then the WPC update today would likely shift north to at least some extent.

moneypitmike Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I can't believe Mattapoisett will be getting double digits and I'll have nothing here in Maine. We're doing okay overall up here, but it will be painful sitting this one out. Congrats you southerners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I’d like to crank that coastal just a bit more to have a higher ceiling. Otherwise not sure I see the PDII analog at the moment. Think ceiling is like 12-18. Which obviously the region would take. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smith Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Willing to bet this bombs out near Long Island and buries the region in feet of snow. Model trend is baby steps towards that end result. If this drops to 980 instead of 998, look out. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
