Looks like Maine might get hit with a significant clipper system. Winter Storm Warnings posted for the Maine Mountains / Northern Maine. Boo Yea!
HAVE ISSUED A WINTER STM WRNG FOR A PORTION OF THE WRN MTNS OF
MAINE STARTING LATER TODAY. A STG CLIPPER DROPPING SEWD FROM
CANADA WILL RAPIDLY DEEPEN ALOFT AND CREATE A RATHER IMPRESSIVE
MID/UPPER LOW TO DEVELOP OVR CENTRAL MAINE BEGINNING THIS AFTN.
TAKING A TRACK 2.5 DEGS N OF THE VORT CENTERS AXIS AND ALSO
OVERLAYING TRACK OF H7/H85 MID LOW PUTS SWATH OF STG UVV INTO THE
WRNG AREA OUTLINED FOR LATER TDY. HAVE TAKEN INTO ACCT THE FACT
THAT MSTR WILL BE LIMITED AT ONSET BUT WITH TIME SHOULD TAP SOME
MSTR FROM THE NE. A LARGE AREA OF SNOW THAT WILL DEVELOP N OF THE
AXIS OF THE TRACK WILL SLOWLY DRIFT SW AS LOW MOVES/EVOLVES SEWD.
STAYED CLOSE TO MAV MAX TEMPS. POPS OFF OF GFS WERE USED BUT ADJ
AXIS OF HIEST POPS A LITTLE FURTHER SWD.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
UPPER LOW CONTINUES FURTHER DEVELOPMENT AS IT VERY SLOWLY DRIFTS
SEWD TWD THE XTRM SRN MAINE CST BY MRNG. PLENTY OF UVV CONTINUES
THRU THE NIGHT N OF THE AXIS SO HAVE ALSO ISSUED WSWATCHES FOR
ADJACENT ZONES TO THE WRNG AREA IN THE MTNS AND ERN CWA. QPF
GENERATION APPEARS LOW FROM MODELS AND OROGRAPHICS SHOULD HELP AS
WELL AS HIGHER SNW RATIOS. DAY SHIFT MAY HAVE TO MAKE DECISIONS ON
THE WATCHES AS WELL AS IF ANY ADVISORIES FURTHER S MAY ALSO BE
NEEDED. FORECASTER NOTE...THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN KNOWN TO BE HVY
SNOW PRODUCERS IN THE PAST AND OVER A LARGE AREA. A SHARP CUTOFF
WILL OCCUR THOUGH WHERE NOTHING OCCURS JUST ALG/S OF THE AXIS
WHILE N OF AXIS VRY HVY SNWS OCCUR. BLENDED MAV/MET TMPS.
