Steve25 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Side note. 18z GFS and Euro top out with their high temps in the mid-teens in Baltimore Wednesday-Saturday. Lows flirting with 0 every night. Weather app has Baltimore getting into the 20s each day this week. Intrigued to see where the temps actually end up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue if this comes up but at 4-5 days out im not too upset at that look 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyHat Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Personally I wouldn't be mad if it misses us. Just notified by Delmarva Power about more outages due to heavy ice on trees and strong winds as trees have come down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a good spot to be 4.5 days out Off the coast of VA Beach also normally doesn't get 25" of snow. I've seen 25" of snow in the lowlands. Just sayin... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, got my nice 5 inch storm back in early December. 3 inches of whatever yesterday was lol And my memory runs together but didnt Central Va get another little like 4 inch snow in early December? Swear there was two Yep - we did really well in early December, then reverted back to our climo with the latest storm. It is what it is, and that sleet pack isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Having the euro and ai firmly in your corner is a great place to be. Leads aren't that long and much of the important stuff transpires by hr96. Seeing both euros honing in on that is a big confidence booster. I just want some clean snow so even the icon with its much shallower dig put a smile on my face. Maybe I'm in a good spot but I'm not feeling safe in any way. I tossed the gfs completely after seeing the run over run trend in the euros. My wag is the 0z gfs will make a decisive move towards the euros 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 1 hour ago, BristowWx said: Not feeling this one. I hate coastals. It’s all or nothing. Overrunning lows from the SW are the way to go. People keep saying this. But SWFE/WAA events have issues too. Sure there are less moving parts but that doesn’t mean easier. You need the perfect thermal boundary placement. We still need the cold to be south of us. If the low Amplifies to our west we will still flip. If it’s under amped or the boundary presses south we get suppressed. We’ve barely had any coastals the last 9 years. We’ve had dozens of SWFEs and yesterday was the first warning level snow I’ve had from any of them and it was anything but easy and ended up half sleet and only worked because of an anomalous cold wave! Meanwhile my hit rate on coastal is way way way higher. We’ve barely had any frankly but the handful we have had make up my only decent snowstorms since 2016, which was a coastal btw. I just don’t see all this evidence that SEFEs are easier way to score big snowstorms here. Frankly imo the biggest reason we’ve not had much snow (other than it’s been warm, although these 2 things are related because I’d the thermal boundary is way to our NW we aren’t getting coastals) is that we’ve had almost no coastal storms the last 9 years. 7 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like this one has to go well to hit Richmond. Very well to hit DC. It just feels like if anything it shifts East on us Maybe, I'm wrong and someone will correct. But I just don't think the tendency of this setup is NW shifts like the last one 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is what it is, and that sleet pack isn't going anywhere anytime soon. I'm actually right at climo which is surprising but also a testament to how bad my climo is LOL. I can't find a detailed climo map but I think climo is around 12" and sitting at 11.1 in January feels good. I was around 12" last year too. If we truly are entering a longer term blocking cycle my move south might not be as bad in the snow dept as I assumed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'm 100% good with the euroAI and I have wiggle room so I'm personally fine with the entire shield shifting 75 miles NW. It's a backyard sport though. If I could lock up the AI run i would. But he's got the JMA... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
