bncho Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I think HRRR is a little bit faster and a little bit wetter. (2/10) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Looking to our SW, places that were supposed to be ice or sleet are snow. Soundings reveal the forecasted warm layer failing to materialize. Maybe it gives us some hope? 18 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTy Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Topped out at 30F today at Deep Creek, dropped like a stone and now I'm down to 6F. I have no idea how high the wind gusts are but they have to be 40mph here on top of the mountain. It's been all day. I have a few flakes blowing around but otherwise partly cloudy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 35 minutes ago, mikeg0305 said: Well then what does sleet look like? Good Question. I made an example here of the general concept. In the images below I've "Unskew'd" the Skew-T so that temperature is now vertical line on the X axis. Y axis is height obviously. The only question to ask is which area / shape is bigger? The Red (Above Freezing) or the Blue (Below Freezing). In this profile the blue is bigger, and therefore Sleet would likely be the most dominant precipitation type. So what about this one? Red is bigger, therefore Freezing Rain would be most likely. In the real world of course there is more to consider like dynamic lift in banding, precipitation rate, etc. but it's useful. 15 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDweatherman Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Even if these models are right, it’s such a bad idea to use them in their extended range. The HRRR is wrong often at hour 6 much less post hr 18. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Really odd how the sleet makes it just past Hanover at 3pm, but then starts sinking back down the next 2 hours so we're back to snow at 5pm. But, the slp is still in WV gradually moving north. Take a look at it TSSN+. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeg0305 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 One of those YouTubers is saying the Arctic high is a bit further south on the recent model runs than prior runs. Any of you see that from your perspectives? Does that make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 It looks like it is trying to jump off of OC. Would like to see more plots. I wonder if some us would go back over to snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather Will Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 WB 0Z HRRR is a glacier. Not sure what people expect from this storm, but it looks like a serious storm with prolonged cold in place. Totals added to my list a couple pages back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warm air advecting from the south must have been shut off, but I don't know how or why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, the slp is still in WV gradually moving north. Take a look at it TSSN+. It’s because the warm layer is at its greatest extent there and thin and it’s wobbling based on rates. Around 20z we’re in a dry slot then it sinks south during some heavier precip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wetbulbs88 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 The HRRR is vaguely useful at 6 hours. At this range it means almost nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
