OH/TN Valley, Se, MA Snow for Thursday! First Call Maps!

#1 Postby Guest » Tue Jan 06, 2004 3:06 pm

Well this looks to be a nice little event unfolding for these areas and especially IN/OH and Northern KY on Thursday which as of right now looks like a few "could" pick up to 6inches (Or maybe more) of the white stuff by Thursday night! I will have a little more info on this later with a map as well. Just wanted to mention it quickly.

Does the map say it??? There is your answer. And i will remind everyone that this is a first call map meaning it can change. Kinda doubtfull at this point but as with anything when its to do with the weather things do sometimes change on little notice!!!!!

So far it looks pretty good. Looks like it may be a higher liquid snow ratio than 10:1. The only problem we will probably we need to answer is how dry will the air be?

AHAHAH

1-4 is a little vague but it's still pretty bolder than the NWS. They won't say a word about accumulation until about 24 hours out (atleast for my area).

Good post KOW. The NWS is putting a chance for light snow in the forecast for us here in Charlotte Thursday night and maybe Friday morning. I think you are right though, the question is how much dry air does the precip have to overcome?? I noticed the mets at Duke Power in Charlotte indicate some snow, maybe even light accumulations for the CLT area as well, so you are definitely on to something here. Will be interesting to see how this comes together.

Thanks for the post and maps, good stuff as always.

1-4 in Va Beach is considered SIGNIFICANT......keep that in mind, as what is minor in the north is major in the south!

Thanks for this First Call Map KOW! :)

I am expecting anywhere from a dusting to an inch at this point in time.

The air will be pretty dry, so the question concerning how dry will the air be is valid.

I am very happy with this cold air though :) :)

It's 20 degrees, with a dewpoint of -3. Winds are 3 to 12 mph with gusts to 24.

Altogether beautiful weather here in N VA :) :) If I don't get this storm, I'll be happy..................but if I should get it, I'll be happier still!!!! :) :)

THINK SNOW!!! THINK SNOW!!! THINK SNOW!!!

With the temps being at or below freezing for most of Friday, even an inch, maybe a 1/2 inch will shut alot of stuff down because of the roads.

THIS JUST IN folks..........


Severe Weather Alert from the National Weather Service
...ALBEMARLE VA-ALLEGANY MD-ANNE ARUNDEL MD- ARLINGTON/FALLS CHURCH/ALEXANDRIA VA-AUGUSTA VA-BERKELEY WV- CALVERT MD-CARROLL MD-CHARLES MD-CLARKE VA-CULPEPER VA- DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA DC-FAIRFAX VA-FAUQUIER VA-FREDERICK VA- FREDERICK MD-GRANT WV-GREENE VA-HAMPSHIRE WV-HARDY WV-HARFORD MD- HIGHLAND VA-HOWARD MD-JEFFERSON WV-KING GEORGE VA-LOUDOUN VA- MADISON VA-MINERAL WV-MONTGOMERY MD-MORGAN WV-NELSON VA- NORTHERN BALTIMORE MD-ORANGE VA-PAGE VA-PENDLETON WV- PRINCE GEORGES MD-PRINCE WILLIAM/MANASSAS/MANASSAS PARK VA- RAPPAHANNOCK VA-ROCKINGHAM VA-SHENANDOAH VA-SOUTHERN BALTIMORE MD- SPOTSYLVANIA VA-ST. MARYS MD-STAFFORD VA-WARREN VA-WASHINGTON MD-

... LIGHT SNOW POSSIBLE THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...

A WEAK STORM MOVING OUT OF THE MIDWEST WILL PASS TO OUR SOUTH THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. WITH COLD ARCTIC AIR OVER THE REGION... ANY PRECIPITATION FROM THIS STORM WILL FALL IN THE FORM OF LIGHT SNOW.

THE BEST CHANCE FOR LIGHT SNOW WILL BE BETWEEN MIDNIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT AND MIDDAY FRIDAY. CENTRAL VIRGINA HAS THE BEST CHANCE FOR LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS SINCE IT WILL BE CLOSER TO THE PATH OF THE STORM. THE CHANCE OF SNOW LESSENS AS YOU MOVE NORTH TOWARD THE MASON DIXON LINE. ANY ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE AT MOST AN INCH OR TWO OVER CENTRAL VIRGINIA AND AN INCH OR LESS ELSEWHERE.

...



I got it off weather.com


It's fairly crisp out there folks, and dewpoints are near zero, temps now falling through the upper 20s into the mid 20s...............I'm happy........If we get some light flurries, it'll be all good.........if just clouds, it'll be all good :)
