@psuhoffman, I agree as you know. But yeah, I’d hope the fresh 1040mb high pressure in a perfect spot could do SOMETHING useful.
On a happier note, GEFS has a much more robust 50-50 feature and looks workable so far.
Tantalizingly close. I’d expect some nice hits in the ensembles. If things developed just as the euro showed, it would come down the precise track, strength, and timing of the PV and 50/50 type low in Canada. Gonna be awhile before that is sorted. Lot to like about this window.
Euro has flurries and sprinkles for this weekend, but I’m definitely intrigued so far for our D9-10 window. Storm developing in the Rockies at hr174 with a good HP overtop and a piece is the trop PV sliding through eastern Canada.
Agreed. The D8-15 ensembles have been pretty good this year at broad strokes (which is what they’re for). I’d mostly just say that another torch period in late January doesn’t mean winters over because no pattern has locked in very long for 2+ months. Not sure why that would suddenly change. But, seeing that look in late January does increase the urgency to get some snow beforehand.
GEFS does look pretty nice for the 13-14th window. Seems like more of a slider/redeveloper on the means, but that could still give us some snow as long as it’s not squashed to myrtle beach like the GGEM.
GFS seems completely on an island with the evolution early next week, and we’ve seen how that’s gone for the gfs so far this season. But GGEM also has a potent northern stream shortwave bring in a legit respectable airmass ahead of anything late next week. But that squashes everything. Definitely a lot going on…hopefully we can get something.
Euro, GGEM, and GEFS all have a pretty similar look D8-9 with a developing storm in the Plains, brief PNA spike, and “some” high pressure nosing into the Lakes and northeast. This is the time period that has been advertised for several days already.
Euro going the extra mile to piss us off. Better cold push, so shred that wave to nothing and wait for the cold to retreat before bringing in the precipitation.
