Admin BuckeyeGal Posted January 6, 2023 Admin Share Posted January 6, 2023 Well, I did say we needed some fantasy snow in the Daily Discussion Thread. This wasn't the fantasy I had in mind.. but it's better than 60 degrees and thunderstorms, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Hiramite Posted January 6, 2023 Moderators Share Posted January 6, 2023 Quite the long duration event (~48hrs) for portions of OH on the GFS as the precip moves back in from the east as the low stalls along the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely something to keep track of. It's been awhile since we had one. In case some of you forget what they look like, see below... Seriously, for those who might not know, a bowling ball low/storm/track is one that moves pretty much west to east. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobuckeye45 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I would caution though.....because it could be closed off.....it wouldn't yield typical bowling ball storm results 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cperry29 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 If we learned anything with the Christmas storm, probably none of these solutions are correct so at least there’s that 😂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strength and latitude play a major influence, along with cold air source up north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobuckeye45 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 last night at 168 the UK had it closing off down along near the gulf coast (which would align with the ECM) 12z 168 won't be out for a couple hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MesoscaleBanding Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 Normally, I'd be very intrigued with this type of mean track on the GEFS - not so sure about this abysmal setup though 😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MesoscaleBanding Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) Such a pathetically marginal setup - reminds me of what it looks like trying to squeeze out one last snowfall in late spring 🤣 Edited January 6, 2023 by MesoscaleBanding 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohiobuckeye45 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 stays closed off and then stays too weak once it gets reacquainted with the jetstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MesoscaleBanding Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 Disgustingly laughable...storm can't tap enough cold air in the heart of winter to produce a decent swath of snow? 💩😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNOWBOB11 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I’m not even going to bother considering the snow potential for this system for my area until next week even though it’s showing as a good track on the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowlover2 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 0z NAM which is usually done by now is stuck around 27 on all sites i've looked at. Have to wonder if there will be issues with the other 0z runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLweatherjunkie Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) I think I'm going to be that guy that cashes in from another storm that had potential for OHV'ers. At this rate a low over lower MI seems like a legit possibility: The snow cover gradient baroclinic zone looks to be locked into a GLC kind of storm track: Edited January 7, 2023 by StLweatherjunkie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
