Here is question for you guys..what causes this dry puffy snow to basically evaporate? I was watching it today on the deck and it wasn't melting, it was just kind of disappearing.

Sumblimation I believe.

Sumblimation I believe.

Sublime? Magnificient! That which is frozen is exalted into the consumate state of being vaporous. Too, too mahvelous! :crazy:

System amped up looks good so far.

I would take that! Weird 48 hours out and nothing from NWS not even an outlook warning.

Cooler Temps will give us a better ratio. 17:1 IMO.

I will too! Just enough to play in!

Around 4 today is when we should start seeing a Outlook/Watch

 

[rocktopper16]

Just a hard forecast because of the cold.

That's yesterday's NAM. The latest run isn't as amped.

That’s the GFS

 

[Vol knight]

My thoughts as of now:

Valley: 1-2 inches
Plateau: 1-3 inches
Mountains: 2-4 inches

Locally higher amounts possible in the higher elevations.

 

[Vol knight]

That’s the GFS

I apologize, I thought I was looking at the nam, lol.

 

[rocktopper16]

Phone froze. Here it is VK I uploaded the wrong one. Looks pretty amped. Slowing down is key for a moisture tap

 

[rocktopper16]

High ratio. 17-22-1

 

[rocktopper16]

17x.2= 3.6
22x.2=4.4

 

[865dude]

What time of the day is this supposed to start?

 

[rocktopper16]

What time of the day is this supposed to start?

Between 12-3 Tuesday lasting into Wed.

High ratio. 17-22-1

I'm playing around with this Pivotal Weather a little bit. It's neat! I'm still very much a novice as far as knowing which models are more reliable in different time frames.

Gah, I'm getting excited!

 

[VolnJC]

Still nothing from NWS
National Weather Service

My opinion

GFS & EURO for long casting
Then GEM for 72 hours
Then NAM for 20-48hours
Then HRRR for now casting

Also look at Wator vapor maps, Temps, Ratio’s and odds and ins.

So, if I'm looking at a map that says 12Z, does that mean it would be 6AM our time? What I read seemed to indicate this was based on the Greenwich time. I may have misread, but I wanted to ask because I knew one of you guys would know.
