Go Kart Mozart Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 26 minutes ago, dendrite said: It’s weird wording to me. H5 was always going to slot with the trough to the west. I assume they mean H7, but it was always an isentropic push anyway…the saturated column is cold so it’s all snow below the relatively warmer nose. Unless they’re worried about Monday not panning out with northerly bumps. That's an interesting point. When I look at the soundings in the regions depicted as sleet on the maps, I see the only violation of 0c is the narrow nose right at 700mb. In reality, I wonder if it is sleet mixed with snow that forms below 700mb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are inflated because of the lower level cold. They will be wayyyyy too high on the northern side where temps are hanging near 0F and 5F. QPF maps are the way to go in all snow events. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowcrazed71 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 23 minutes ago, Ginx snewx said: LFG 6z GFS Kuchera 6Z Euro depth It's really showing a good amount here in Connecticut. Both of those maps could easily get us to almost 20 in. At least the northern half of Connecticut. There's been a lot of confusion when we're talking about kuchera it's no ratios. It is going to be very cold so I'm assuming there will be a higher ratio, 15 to 1... 20 to 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Good way to learn about different snow situations for your location is to take good measurements and do core samples melt to get the LE then do the math for the ratios. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest question Sent from my SM-S166V using Tapatalk Because the algorithm used to calculate the kuchera ratio is often too bullish. Its an extremely fluid calculation. While the ratio only takes temperature into account there are numerous other factors which have significant effect on the final ratio. Doesnt account for Humidity aloft, Dendritic growth, compaction and multiple other factors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
