You are blowing off the last week of Feb too now, looks like a stormy fun filled week. You and Kev are perfectly content with a squall, a 2-4" overruner and accompanying cold shot.

CoastalWx Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I just saw pics from Carver. They have a sh*tload. That must be a sick gradient between your area and just to the nw by 15 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 The pattern after the torch is looking better as we get closer. I think we can sneak out some decent threats in that. Especially the potential for overrunning after the front moves through. The torch or thaw period however severe it is really is not that unexpected. Well at least I hope it isn't/wasn't. I started a thread about it on February 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed how even the slightest hint at better blocking over Greenland, models shift much colder. It shows you how volatile the pattern is. Just a subtle hint in height rises either by AK or Greenland, and the outcome in sensible wx is huge. To quote Ray, a penguin can fart in Greenland and send the polar boundary south.

Maybe one day nearin the 40's-near 50 and that's it? Would be awesome I dont think this warm up will to long or to bad. Some may just touch 45-49 ish range at the peak of the warm up. And then we could re load cold winter weather. I wont get to worried just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, just let him b**ch...but hopefully we don't get into a stupid war this thread. I do think its funny how he has totally changed his tune again. Once he got the HECS and had a good snow pack, he was all for smaller events to add to the seasonal total...but now he's back to poo-pooing anything unless its a big storm threat.

Not gonna bother rationalizing my preference because I don't feel the need to. I'd just like to fast foreward to March....no trolling; just expressing my sentiment.

Period..I hate winter with brown grass..It's why I agonize over warmth, and Grinch storms. I don't care how old, crusty, discolored it gets.

Well you live in a wooded area, so I think you'll be ok. Colder night temps will help you, unlike the hills I think. You'll take a big hit, but I think you'll be ok.

So I am just praying we get thru this inferno with some semblance of it left I hate brown grass and mud/dirt/rotting leaves showing in the winter too. Snow that is getting dirty and crusty is ugly too, but its way less uglier than the former option. This mild break next week will be annoying but it won't be a back breaker I don't think. It might not be all that damaging if its limited to a couple days in upper 40s to near 50 with relatively low dews. Its the 55F with 50F dewpoints with rain and fog in the warm sector of big lakes cutters that really do the most damage....or a moister airmass that keeps overnight lows in the 40s like we saw in Jan 2008. But that was a much much warmer airmass. We had like 36 hours of 850s at +12C and over 48h of 850s near +10C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
