Infact,your DRY SLOT just filled in completely! Just as I said it would!

Well, I live in the Shenandoah Valley, in far NW VA. If you can convince me that that dry slot will fill in, I'll get on board.

In fact,batten down the hatches,east coasters,its about to hit the fan! I like it when its about to hit the fan!

So whats your prediction for philly?

[spartyinmd]

Dry Slot is NOT filled in over the whole DC area.

[Ed Spacer]

Well,then hop on,friend! The dead zones you see are radar anomalies,and not dry spots. How do I know?Because there is a dead spot around the Dover,DE radar,and the longer view shows there reaaly isn't a hole at all. Your dry slots are filling in! In fact,those anomalies are created by electromagnetic molecular signal release because of the osmosis of the converging systems,it has released alot of electricity ion the atmosphere,and that why if a certain signal frequency is generated,it may interfere with such technology.

1-2 feet.

radar anomalie.Look at the Dover one,it has that too,but when you see the long range reflectivity,there really aren't any holes.....

Question:

First look at the short base reflectivity radars for:

Dover, DE - http://www.erh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS ... kdox.shtml

and

Philadelphia, PA - http://www.erh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS ... kdix.shtml

If you look at Dover from the Philadelphia radar, Dover appears filled in. However, if you look at Dover from the Dover radar, there appears to be a "dry" area around Dover. Why is this?

[Ed Spacer]

In fact,we have steady LIGHT SNOW,picking up a bit o intensity at 9 :10 AM,27 degrees here in lovely,Middletown,DE.

Ed, what are your predictions for the Shenandoah Valley?

[Ed Spacer]

Ed, what are your predictions for the Shenandoah Valley?

Actually,you are in a unique area. The Shenandoah mountains will actually have a good scenario of orographic lift ,and I see it now happening by the banding taking place and the intensity shown on the radar. 1-2 feet there as well,if not a better chance due to this geographical enhancement based on the topography of the mountains.

BTW-those radar holes are caused by electromagnetic energy released at such a radio frequency signal as to disrupt the operation of it to a degree,and it is the convergence and the actual wethaer events generating this energy in the atmosphere that is disrupting the radar function itself.

[Ed Spacer]

friends,how is this a cold core system?Because we have a fine powder coming down,not wet flakes.Very fine powder,and it is picking up a bit.I am quite pleased so far.

[Ed Spacer]

Look at this new map and radar composite. As I stated,the clipper has now merged with the main storm,which has about an 800 mile length of precip,as well as the storm is right off hatteras,and will shoot directly NNE,not NE to Capr Cod,but actually past Long island and inland around Maine.This is why I say and mintaina bust for NE and Maine.Sorry,guys,its our turn now.

[Ed Spacer]

In fact,as the EURO model stated two days ago, the trough and clipper which now just merged, will actually compress and foirce the convergence into one storm,and understanding energy and the release of such in maintaining balance in the atmosphere,especially gradient balance of equal iso-barometric pressure,certain events have to take place for the equation of such atmospheric balance to exist,therefore if the divergence is great,then the reactive osmosis that is resulting from such divergence will be as great as this differentiation of the systems in the atmosphere themselves and between themselves directly and by what extremes have to take place to mainatian such equation of balance over such a short distance henceforth the creation of extreme weather events like which are about to unfold now.

[Ed Spacer]

Have no fear.Because of the core valuation of the temperature of the storm, when it starts again, it will cool the surface temp down again,and will stay snow.I guarantee it,very shortly thereafter even if it starts again as rain,will change back.the fact that it stopped means the cold air is winning,and evaporating the moisture before it hits,so the saturation cycle starts again.

[Ed Spacer]

Look at the loop on the MtHolly/Phila radar.Its happening,folks,just as I stated.The energy transferrance from the clipper and the west precip is merging with the coastal low developing well in advance of it.

[canesrus]

From someone who lives in Richmond, the snow/sleet stopped for a while but now it is all snow and really coming down. Good call, Ed.

So when do you expect this heavy snows to get to philly?
