Another snowstorm..

[eric12401 77]

According to the National Weather Service's forecast... we're in for a dumping Tuesday Night into Thursday. Here's a couple of sections I took out of the Extended Forecast:

"THE LONG TERM FEATURES A POTENTIAL SIGNIFICANT EAST COAST SNOWSTORM

THAT LOOKS TO IMPACT THE NORTHEAST LATE TUESDAY INTO THURSDAY."

"THE FORECAST OFFICE HAS HAD THIS

STORM IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK THE PAST FEW DAYS...AND WE

WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THE THREAT OF A BLOCKBUSTER WINTER STORM

IN THAT PRODUCT."

"THIS STORM MAY HAVE SOME MIX PRECIPITATION SOUTH AND EAST OF THE CAPITAL REGION...IF IT HUGS THE COAST. WE KEPT THE PRECIPITATION AS SNOW...AND IF IT MATERIALIZES WE MAY NEED YARD STICKS TO MEASURE THE SNOWFALL."

We looked up the predictions for this potential storm at work last night. Look up the definition of a "Miller Type A Cyclone" (or Cyclogenesis).
