Yeah this doesn't seem like the most vigorous storm just by the central pressure, but I mean come on:<br /><br />http://www.instantweathermaps.com/GFS-php/showmap-conussfc.php?run=2014013112&time=48&var=PRMSL&hour=120<br /><br />Certainly doesn't have the look of a weak storm to me. It's a sopping wet Gulf storm as well so it doesn't even need to be that strong to produce a lot of precipitation. Total snowfall from that run verbatim is on the order of 8-12 inches, which is higher than previous runs. I think what we want to see for an ideal setup is a stronger low further west, with stronger confluence leading to an earlier transfer. This looks like the kind of storm where the places that cash in the most are the ones who simultaneously stay below freezing and take the most direct hit from the low level jet. Residual moisture from the jet should linger during the coastal transfer as well. Sadly our ideal setup MAY pose a Catch-22 of sorts, where in order to get a stronger and more westerly storm we need the confluence to be weaker, which would result in less snow. Not entirely sure on that so don't quote me on it, especially since I've seen stronger solutions with both weaker and stronger confluence. A stronger Atlantic ridge would help on that front (pun intended) as well.

It may change back to a brief period of snow Saturday night before ending. Maybe another inch. NBD<br /><br />Wednesday-Thursday - I do not see this as a big deal, It is only a 1007mb low when it passes to our South. Not a huge snow maker. Maybe small to mid-sized. 5-7" with maybe some lake effect after that.<br /><br />Next weekends storm. Looks stronger right now but the models have been doing this all year. They show a BIG storm only to weaken it considerably as we get closer. The same is happening with next Wednesdays storm.<br /><br />Just my opinion.<br /><br />Snowdognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-33120913616523033952014-01-30T23:41:37.194-05:002014-01-30T23:41:37.194-05:00And here's why you don't spread rumors abo...And here's why you don't spread rumors about ginormous blizzards 10 days in advance: the GFS now tracks that storm eastward through northern Ohio and delivers 40 degree rain to the big snow zone from last night's Euro control run.

I'm just saying that if we had more mid level cold air we'd be talking much higher snow amounts and more wiggle room regarding model shifts as well. I think the depth of the cold air at our latitude pretty much nullifies our chances of an ice storm, I was mostly referring to the Ohio Valley when I brought that up. The cold air is shallower there, hence the elevated icing threat. The Hudson Valley may also see nasty icing issues, as stronger warm advection in that region may force more warm air into the mid levels while any developing secondary low locks the surface cold in place.Carol Cheryl Cristalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-33124758900734922752014-01-30T23:24:03.757-05:002014-01-30T23:24:03.757-05:00So not that big of a deal CCC?

As it stands, we have warm advection and lower ratios to contend with. The abundance of surface cold combined with a relative lack of mid level cold should result in a broad zone of mixed precip, and unfortunately this storm appears primed to dump a whole heap of freezing rain on someone as a result.<br /><br />I believe northern stream interaction is why the late week system is being pegged as the larger of the two.Carol Cheryl Cristalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-50304216214339347362014-01-30T23:08:15.375-05:002014-01-30T23:08:15.375-05:00What about next week Weatherguy what does latest G...What about next week Weatherguy what does latest GFS say?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-18182874489345182742014-01-30T23:02:37.666-05:002014-01-30T23:02:37.666-05:00FYI, the latest GFS has trended colder for this we...FYI, the latest GFS has trended colder for this weekend's event, maybe a little less rain and little more snow after all!Weatherguynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5793508672957135735.post-24051132094763194392014-01-30T22:33:06.376-05:002014-01-30T22:33:06.376-05:00I think I found out where the "Blizzardgeddon...I think I found out where the "Blizzardgeddon" hype came from.
