WVsnowlover Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 15 minutes ago, Weather Will said: Try to look at the glass as half full; we have below freezing temps for over a week with snow and ice on the ground. Kids got out of school for several days and the government let people work from home for three days. Hopefully we can still cash in on a pure snow event, but this winter gets a B so far from me. That novelty wears off fairly quickly. It's all about the chase and the high that good model runs bring for most here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1/2018 bomb cyclone was a similar setup (except for NC). NYC and Boston got about 10" from that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUsedToHateCold Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Anyone who's out now hasn't been at this for awhile. We got a day before the blinds start to close. Need to see those trends work in our favor on the 18z and 00z runs. If we're having this conversation at the same time tomorrow it's probably time to plan a trip to central NC or get out a pack of that smooth cold cirrus. I heard it doesn't have nicotine and isn't addictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Being so far NW i'm kind of enjoying the angst and hair pulling to the south. All I know if we end up getting something out here it will be pretty awesome, if we don't we were never in the game anyway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmagnet Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 What did Boxing Day do? It went south in the last 24 hours. It was supposed to be our storm. Last week it looked like Richmond was bullseye for 2 feet, and it went west, hitting PA, Boston, and NY in the last 24-48 hours. What about PD2? I don't know the details as I was pregnant and sick at the time, but I know we were not supposed to get nearly that much snow. It was either Feb 2013 or 2014 when the Polar Vortex caused some very confused models and we got a lot of cold and surprising high snow totals out of it. This is clearly not a 2016 storm, but coastal storms can be very tricky depending on where that Low decides to stall. I could be 100% wrong, which would make my Raleigh and Southern VA friends very happy, but I think the models will be struggling with this until game time. Just my amateur "cup is half-full" two cents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjvanals Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Ask yourself how confident would you be in Raleigh or Norfolk that you’d be getting a blizzard this weekend? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 34 minutes ago, TowsonWeather said: I understand why, but it doesn’t make it any easier to stomach that we have a 970s bomb exploding off of Hatteras and a historically cold airmass entrenched over us and we are gonna miss out. Just been a tragic decade for snow in Central Maryland. Sigh. And I would venture to say that it's because of the historic cold pressing that it is south. There are a few of our major snowstorms that were proceeded by historic cold, but 90%+ were not as overwhelming as this air mass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 56 minutes ago, Maestrobjwa said: How does that happen? It's just getting shunted east to fast, or is the block too strong? Apparently a NW cut-off like that is very unusual. Something to watch as we get closer... There is always a cutoff on the north side. There is a precip shield on the NW side we just aren't in it. That low is pretty far south at that point . As the low moves NE and deepens the precip on the NW side becomes more impressive but its all offshore.

Clearly our misfortune since 0z is due to the promised posting of the WeatherNext never coming to fruition.

Maestrobjwa Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Well the good news is it's not like we're being toyed with here...there's not one model crushing us and another not, nor has there been any false hope. I mean if it's gonna fail I'd much rather it be like now instead of last minute despite the suckage of a windstorm instead of snow, lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
