stormtracker Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Scratch that...it's a little drier in the later panels than 6z...but the earlier precip probably evens it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 2 minutes ago, stormtracker said: Well, GFS looks a good bit better than 6z so far...but still don't think it's going to do what we need keep us close heading into the final 72 hours with that upper low closing off right over us and the inverted trough around and we have a shot at something going out way. But there is so much noise in front of this both it terms of how the blocking north of us evolves (and yes there is blocking...look at the flow over top of us, the Hudson High is doing it's job) and all the little SWs flying around. I think there are likely to continue to be some changes up until the very end here...so I just want us close enough that these changes could make a difference for us.

wxmeddler Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Horrible run to run consistency with the GFS so far. But this run looks good at h96 thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LP08 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Need this thing to really amp and wrap up. Surface temps are terrible even with the digital blue. A nice step forward for a change though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Yeah, it's a good hit. The H5 really digs. Need another scoot 150 mi west, that's asking for a lot though. (It will be 300mi east next run) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowenOutThere Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Just now, Interstate said: The GFS is close to a Blizzard Not really, its mainly detached from the coastal. Instead its a great H5 pass I think with a good amount of moisture fetch to squeeze it out. The real blizzard conditions are reserved for the Atlantic ocean.

Terpeast Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Main takeaway so far is we're not out of this yet. I was hoping for higher confidence today, but looks like confidence will remain low until at least 0z Friday. Yes it sounds like I'm kicking the can, and maybe I am. But all these vorts flying around and a minor change can make a huge difference. This isn't a typical SS wave casually approaching from the SW in a linear manner. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the track tho One plus of this IVT scenario is that it’s mostly after dark Sunday evening so no solar radiation concerns and slightly better temps. Otherwise, a lot less pluses lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that this run is probably further off of a real blizzard than some of its runs yesterday. The mechanism that allowed for us to get near 6 inches of snow is different than the mechanism that would promote a blizzard. Yes, the two are linked, but we would need a dramatic change with the H5 low capturing the surface low instead of simply providing upper level diffluence which promotes lift of the moisture fetch from the Atlantic!
