dendrite Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 3 minutes ago, The 4 Seasons said: did we ever clear up the fact that it has to be a total of 3 hours not necessarily consecutive? I remember that was a controversy during the Blizzard of 2005 or 2006 i cant remember. Is it consecutive or total, the wording on some of the definitions was never clear Consecutive…although they have been a bit more lax on the definition in the last decade. Like allowing for 1/4sm rather than M1/4sm and being more liberal on the “frequent gusts”. Although I don’t think a random 1/2sm ob in the middle of it should negate it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HRRR parks it over us for an hour or two albeit a bit weaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The mesonalysis fronto posted earlier showed it well, but there are your two main areas of forcing now. E MA is almost like a firehose right now. Then there’s the deformation further west. I think that will rot a bit and slowly move east. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 One good thing about these high wind events is you don't have to clean off the car. It's underrated how much having to clean off the car adds to cleaning up the driveway, especially in the area of the car and if you have multiple cars next to each other 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
