CoastalWx Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Lots of spread in the euro ensembles Yeah, at least they are slower and further nw than the op. Looks like it goes over the BM as a weak low, and then develops and moves northeast. The weaker low depiction might be due to the spread? First low is a miss.

OKpowdah Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 "...ANOTHER COMPLICATING FACTOR FOR CONTINUITY ASSESSMENT IS THAT ONLY THE 00Z GLOBAL GUIDANCE HAD ACCESS TO ADDITIONAL DATA FROM WSR TARGETING RECON FLIGHTS OVER THE NERN PACIFIC..." Trust me- it matters I agree that it matters, but I don't think the current model struggling can be pegged all on it. If it was all up to the data input, we should see a more gradual convergence toward a consensus as more and more of the feature is sampled throughout the last few days, and saved through the initialization scheme. All the model runs have been very erratic however. Again, I agree that it matters, but I think it's much more situational than you make it out to be sometimes.

More members then not probably have good weenie solutions but there's plenty of spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I agree that it matters, but I don't think the current model struggling can be pegged all on it.

All the model runs have been very erratic however. Again, I agree that it matters, but I think it's much more situational than you make it out to be sometimes. Consensus of the Met community disagrees.... so take it how you want/will. Even NCEP says the 12z runs were effected by the fact that unlike the 00z, they did not benefit from the inputs... "but I think it's much more situational than you make it out to be sometimes." - this statement means nothing. These models do not operate from the starting point of a vacuum. It absolutely matters, and that is the ONLY situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Ginxy Gale 4\2 Seems like a real conundrum for models. Will be interesting to see what transpires, Miller A CC cutter seems about right. I expect windswept rain after an initial front end 2 inches per climo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"but I think it's much more situational than you make it out to be sometimes." - this statement means nothing. These models do not operate from the starting point of a vacuum. It absolutely matters, and that is the ONLY situation. NCEP also observed that the 00z runs didn't even benefit from the additional data, as seen by the significant spread of the model guidance. And so if model forecasts are so dependent on the data input, why is it we didn't see convergence in the 00z runs, considering the data was even specifically targeted to sample the feature in question? What I meant by situational is that there'll be cases in the evolution of the atmosphere where there's a number of bifurcation points present with significant divergence of possible reality, and then there'll be situations with few bifurcation points that do not diverge as much, such that predictability is much greater. This is obviously a situation where predictability is minimal, probably associated with numerous bifurcation points in the evolution of the atmosphere.

CoastalWx Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Pretty big difference in the ensembles and op. The ensembles are def further nw with the second low, but they are also kind of robust with the 1st low. We don't want the 1st low to be too powerful, or else it takes the good baroclinicity with it and kicks it out further east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel better that the ensembles aren't centered so far west like they've been the last few days (Ohio, DC, etc.) But, yeah, that first shortwave could muck things up. At this juncture, I'm still more concerned for rain than a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW the Canadian ensembles have a ton of spread as well, but looks like the mean goes over the Cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 WOW what a beautiful day!! stellar afternoon with light winds full , strong march sun!! As expected forecasted high of 42 was not even close, got up to 47 now settled back to 45 but felt a lot better than that.......hope everyone actually got outside to enjoy it! 50+ next 3 days.....just heaven.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Meanwhile....hit 49 degrees here with a dewpoint of -1! That's nuts I think data scarcity matters less when we have many individual s/w then when we have one stronger one in a data poor area. There were many times this winter when seemingly critical components moved by hundreds of miles but the ultimate solution moved little. I think in the Nina type pattern there are so many ingredients in play it doesn't matter as much as it does usually. So dry outside if you run really fast your balls will burst into flames.

Or go out and enjoy the weather............sorry tube socks, but winter ended here on Feb 1st, I have had 5.7 inches of snow in 55 days.........just the way it is, I try not to live in denial, if I lived in the berks at 1.5k plus it would be different, but I dont.

jconsor Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 49? Unlikely. FMH hit 45 or 46, CQX 45, TAN 45 and PVC 44. Meanwhile....hit 49 degrees here with a dewpoint of -1!

Too bad your area is a snow hole, I've had over a foot of snow in Feb/March with more coming this Wednesday if 12z Euro and 18z NAM are correct. Sucks when you live in the swamp...
