It won’t be imho. It’ll slide east. I don’t think EPS has a single member like reggie. I could def see a compromise though
-
Even a 70/30 or 80/20 compromise in favor of the 06z GFS with the 06z euro would be really good for most. I’d love to lock in the GFS here but I’m still leery of these further SE solutions on the Euro suite.
-
Lol…NAM totally out to lunch on this one I think. But it’s interesting that the old EE combo are the furthest SE. my guess is we see a compromise of some sorts….which would prob maximize the snow coverage in SNE which is a plus.
-
It’s because the euro is the superior model. Kind of a large gap for being 60 hours out right now though. I’d expect we’ll see a swift convergence today on guidance. My guess is euro comes west some more and the Canadian duo comes east a bit. We’ll see though…weirder things have happened.
-
06z euro still pretty far southeast though it looked a little NW of 00z. Surprised at the gap between it and the 06z gfs.
-
Some spots could put up some impressive lows during the middle of next week if we can decouple with snow cover. -20 to -25 850 temps while decoupled with snow cover will make some good numbers. Nothing super crazy but I’d expect a lot of below zero readings in the usual rad pits if that happened.
-
Probably a good time to remind everyone:
-
I like the RGEM in the short range....I'm not sure I'd use it as a marker at 72-84 hours....it's a piece of fringe guidance at that range imho.....GGEM can be ok, but again, the GFS is better than it at this point during winter season for our region. Maybe years ago they'd run neck and neck. I def still look at the Canadian...it still scores enough coups and it was the model sniffing this threat out days ago when all others were completely flat like @Typhoon Tip already mentioned.,
-
Yeah agreed. That’s what I meant when I said it was “directionally correct” but may be a little too west verbatim now. But if we still get the final solution to be anything lien the GFS or heck, even more of a weaker advisory event like the euro, it’s still a win for the GGEM in the D5/6 range. It does score coups now and then. @40/70 Benchmark will never forget December 2022 coup it scored when our east coast blizzard turned into the apocalypse for Buffalo while we enjoyed another grinch rainstorm.
-
My guess is they would not be viewed as much if they weren’t coming out early in the cycle. If they were late like the JMA or NAVGEM, they’d be relegated to similar status. Canadian might be a little more useful but not by a lot.
-
I kind of like seeing some JV models this amped because of the euro suite being pretty far southeast. Makes me think a compromise is coming at some point.
-
I’d want to see more support. It def seems to have had the right idea directionally but it might be too amped verbatim. It further west than almost all the GEFS and EPS members…but not all, we we track to see if it wants to tick further west.
-
At least the NAM has a storm at all now. My guess is guidance like the Canadian is too far west and NAM-esque solutions too far east.
-
IF we can keep that ridge nice and poleward into the Bering and north of it, then I think we'll continue to have chances even if we have to deal with a cutter mixed in at some point. It will keep loading the source region with arctic air so the airmasses won't become perpetually stale.
-
Just mentioned above in my post to Scott that the Euro ensembles have been reducing the SE ridge....but a bit of model battle because the GEFS have it more stout for the beginning of February.
-
Looked good for the start of February too. I've noticed on the ensembles too they are beating down the SE ridge. It's still there, but we're north of the gradient, which is what we want to see.
-
His climo for the past 3 years is like 4 to 1 transparent slush
-
Oh for sure. It's what saved the white Xmas that year (at least where I was) when we had the 12/24 grinch cutter. The snow from 12/13, 12/16, and 12/20 all had a combined 2-3" of QPF in it.
-
Yeah and even in colder profiles, I've had 10 to 1 or worse....I think it was the 12/13/07 traffic catastrophe storm where I had 8-9" of pure baking powder at 22-24F and it was prob slightly under 10 to 1...had nearly an inch of QPF. I think even the ORH ASOS only had near 10 to 1 and we know how the ASOS undercatches snowfall QPF a lot.
-
Euro doesn't quite amplify Jan 24th enough....but obviously that's still 200 hours out....it does give a hefty snowstorm for 1/29 but that is clown range. There does seem to be some opportunity in that final week-plus of the month though.
-
Ukie is not quite as juiced as GFS/GGEM....prob more like high end advisory snows for a lot of SNE.
-
Yeah I hope its' that wave that gets us....it's just choked with gulf moisture. Even verbatim, gets SE MA/Cape/RI with an advisory scraper. But back that NW a couple hundred miles and it's a blizzard.
-
Canadian and GFS are interested in the Jan 22-25 event....they focus on different shortwaves. Canaidan tries to amplify the first one for Jan 22nd....GFS is trying for Jan 24-25th.
-
Even Canadian is close for you....so anything SE of that is good. But it def has the QPF too
-
We'll see how Euro looks but that is a large increase in QPF for the event
