Chambana Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 We got a nice soaking from the remnants yesterday, rain it looked so foreign, as we haven't seen much of it lately:). On a side note.. Another little burst of heat next week, shows 86 on Monday and 90 on Tuesday. Darn summer, just let go and welcome autumn!

Stevo6899 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 more freaking rain coming in from the east. Serious downpours the past 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Talk about a bass ackwards pattern we're in. I honestly cannot remember ever seeing a tropical system make landfall in the deep south, move north into the mid-Atlantic/northeast, and then backtrack westward into the Midwest. Hopefully someone will post a 5-7 day satellite animation of this at some point. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm about ready to get back to a more "normal" west to east flow lol.

Chambana Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I was thinking the same thing cyclone! How often do we actually see systems, tropical systems at that backtrack to the west? And what causes them to do that? Sidenote- change of forecast for my area, seems that cold front could be true. Next wednesday and Thursday dipping down to the lower 40s!

SpartyOn Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Washout here this morning..Nice wave rolling through soaking us here. It appears we break out into partly sunny conditions until about 3pm before the convection starts..Not a nice Saturday.. Lee Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

michsnowfreak Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 The Sept 7-10th rainfall total thru 8am Sept 10th has been 2.11" imby. Not a soaking just a steady light rain more or less, a few heavy bursts and a few breaks. While im not so much a fan of the rain, the constant gloomy overcast is not depressing but rather exciting, as it means that summer is OVER and autumn, much like playoff baseball, is making its way into MI!

Stevo6899 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 While the rain has been impressive around here the past few days, just amazed by this graphic of the precip the last 30 days in the northeast. Probably not the place to post this but delete it if neccessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guru Of Reason Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Talk about a nail biter. I wish I could see past 10 days. Looks like a very potent cold wave coming. I'm impressed at the speed which summer ended and autumn began. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I have seen the 2008 analog thrown around quite a few times, as the closest resemblance to this year's upcoming winter. BUT, my question is, 2008 did NOT have that active of a hurricane season besides Ike, which struck texas am i right? Or am i forgetting couple key storms? EDIT- I should of said, impacts of the united states, i know 08 was the 4th most active hurrican season recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT- I should of said, impacts of the united states, i know 08 was the 4th most active hurrican season recorded. Dolly, Gustav, and Ike all hit the U.S. as hurricanes in 2008. There were also 3 tropical storms that made landfall in the U.S. that year. http://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/at2008.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 this pattern is super boring, geez. gimme a winter storm to track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 this pattern is super boring, geez. gimme a winter storm to track. I don't find this boring at all. There have been significant timing differences/amplitude differences regarding the first low amplitude wave ahead of the second arctic plunge. It has been quite a forecast challenge. If you want to forecast someday, it won't always be big monster storms. Even these "small" events can create major forecast challenges. That said, I don't think this is boring!

kab2791 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Agreed about the winter storms, I've been reduced to viewing NCDC radar images from past winter storms on GRlevel2A. lol Though may get my first frost thurs night up here. this pattern is super boring, geez. gimme a winter storm to track.

cyclone77 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I agree with T-snow. This pattern is pretty damn boring lol. Of course we've all been spoiled with some very interesting events/weather patterns the last year or so. Definitely can't always have something exciting to track, which only makes the good ones that much more interesting/exciting to track. I usually try to take advantage of the quiet weather to get the crap done that I blew off during the previous active weather pattern lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
