DISCUSSION 2 OH BOY

Alright we’re back again with another discussion. This will be a quick one as I have to go out, but here’s the deal. The 12z Euro gives DC a light accumulation while Baltimore gets a moderate one. The model may be going a bit too far north with it, and just keep note that I believe the 00z later at 1:30 tonight will be a bit south of the 12z.
On to the 18z GFS, what an interesting run. It seems to show a moderate-significant snowfall for BWI while DC does ok, with 3-6. The precip should go to sleet then ice with a significant accumulation of mixed precip. Sounds very wintry.
What has caught my attention even more are the 18z GFS 108-114 panels, showing another moderate snow event, with up to 6 additional inches for DC and BAL. This is just a quick model analysis.
Even if the runs aren’t 100% snow now, I see the potential that between Monday and Friday, there may be A MAJOR WINTER STORM with heavy snow, sleet, and freezing rain, with another event on its heals. The snow could reach 8`` with heavy accumulations of other winter precip. Its just a possibility, and im not speaking of accumulations. I am upgrading to a STAGE 3 ALERT and up to a SCHOOL CLOSING WATCH for TUES-WED-THURS.
I’ll have more, stay tuned.

Big Daddy

Sorry, its been a while. With school, I have been very busy and have been tracking a possible winter storm on saturday night into sunday. However, things are early so we don't really know yet. Be alert though on your hoiday travels. Stay safe, I'll update.

It's Looking Like a Coastal

Good Morning, Junior Meteorologist Ryan K here. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!! The models are starting to transition back to a coastal storm idea. It seems that teh EURO, GFS, and NAM are all in line with this storm.

I still won't make any accumulation forecasts, but I can predict where the precip shield will be. It seems like if the storm tracks up the coast, then snow will be almost a sure thing for snow in the interior. There is a possibility for snow in the DC Balto. metro area, but that will have to be veritfied.

I promise I will post again later updating this storm and its possibilities. Happy Holidays again. See ya!
