Judah’s GEFS snow maps are the absolute worst lol
-
Don’t hate just because I got more snow than you last year
-
November snow is so common for jackpotville they don’t even think it’s worth posting here!
-
Euro brought back a little light snow next Monday and nobody posted it?
-
Yeah, that’s a damn sweet H500 look. I think first flakes for many of us in the next 7-10 days is getting more and more likely.
-
I’ve seen worse, but looks like stale cold air which won’t work in November (barely works in January). What’s nice about the Monday/Tuesday threat is a very fresh and cold airmass.
-
Euro weaker and slower for the early next week event. Verbatim clips the eastern shore and Cape Cod. Still has the event either way. Damn cold period coming up.
-
Yeah it’s had it for 2 runs. Gfs for a few now also.
-
Gfs with a nice little snow event next Monday. Hoffman even gets fringed. Nothing like cold powder in mid November.

He actually responded on Twitter to my question about the linear trend and linked a paper he wrote in 2012 on that idea. Haven’t read it yet.
-
Wave 1/2 just refers to wave number 1/2. So a wavenumber one means that there is one wave crest and one valley as you go around a latitude circle. Wavenumber 1 typically has more amplitude in the troposphere and stratosphere. Wavenumber 1 forcing typically displaces the strat vortex off the pole, while wavenumber 2 deforms and can split the vortex. A combination of both is typically needed for a total vortex disruption.

We had one last year around New Years, which seems like an ideal time to maximize peak climo, and it didn’t propagate downward and substantially change the tropospheric AO. I wouldn’t want a SSW in November or most of December, but anytime after that is good probably.
-
The only thing I see in Cohen’s plot is what looks like a pretty clear upward linear trend over the last 40 years. Whether that’s a climate response or something else, I don’t know. I don’t think there’s been a comparable trend in mean winter AO state.
-
Just checked out the free euro maps on pivotal. Wow, what a game changer.
-
We don’t need a SSW anytime soon. Just keep the strat vortex weak and keep beating on it and that’s fine.
-
RIC hitting today changes things. If DCA hits Saturday, @yoda and @mappy would tie. If DCA hits Friday, @MN Transplant wins outright.
-
That was a very nice score to wake up and see
-
STOP turning the damn ball over
-
5:30pm. : 48F and dark
-
Happy hour suppresses the Friday storm even more, but has something sort of similar to the Euro D9. Doesnt drop much snow verbatim, but similar idea.
-
Ugh, Vinateri cundiffed it.
-
I just hope when a pattern relax happens that it’s a reload and doesn’t flip back to big SE ridge. But hopefully this is the dominant background forcing (IO forcing the MJO in favorable phases, ENSO, QBO, etc) showing it’s hand.

Lots of Barney either way.

I imagine he’s trolling but hard to tell with him sometimes. Sort of like his views on climate.
