Storm Forecast
Valid: Fri 07 Dec 2012 06:00 to Sat 08 Dec 2012 06:00 UTC
Issued: Thu 06 Dec 2012 17:12
Forecaster: TUSCHY
SYNOPSIS and DISCUSSION

A deep branch of the polar vortex is situated over Europe with numerous vortices rotating cyclonically around the main vortex of interest (centered over Poland).

An exiting upper trough keeps DMC alive over the Aegean Sea and W-Turkey mainly until noon with a rapid decrease thereafter. Enhanced LL CAPE and weak background shear pose an isolated waterspout risk mainly along the coast of W-Turkey. No level 1 will be issued due to the limited time-frame and the overall marginal set-up for spout development.

A strengthening vortex enters the W-Mediterranean during the night with a gradual increase of offshore CAPE. The heavy rain risk along the W-CNTRL coast of Italy and the E-coast of the Adriatic Sea may see an increase, but the progressive nature and the late onset of precipitation should keep the rainfall amounts below a level 1 threshold.

Elsewhere, sporadic CI is possible with sub-severe convection.

Here near Rotterdam, there's barely any wind and about an inch of snow. It is getting rather cold overnight though, for the time of year...

Don't push it over here, it's cold enough already, but warm enough to rain not snow.

waiting for that low pressure system to bring some snow doom to my area.

it's still going here, minus 18 predicted for tonight, and probably more snow tonight, it sure isn't as bad as it looked yesterday.

Thank's for your updates!

well there hasn't been any snow for the past 12 hours, so i wonder why our "great"dutch government warned with weathercode ORANGE.

temperature did drop to minus 18 but was alott hotter during the day, like 3 Celsius,so normal winterweather for my prat of the country.
