40/70 Benchmark Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Oh yeah ok..Now i remember. Gibbs says this Dec is starting to remind him of that one I have liked that season as an analog all along...with a touch of 2000-2001 thrown in. Off to a good start with that freak interior, tree tumbling power line punisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowstorms Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 What were the major storms in 2007-2008? 2007-08 and 2008-09 were legit Winters, truly epic. The best storm in 2007-08 was the early March Blizzard and the Mid Dec. Storm. I got over 12" from both monsters . And third was the February Blizzard, where I got around 16". A repeat of 2007-08 or 2008-09 would be remarkable. Certainly it seems like it will be colder this year than those two years. 2007-08 was the best Winter in my area since 1970-71 and 1964-65.

weathafella Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Combination December 2008 and 1993. Very similar November to 1993 and 2007 but overall SSTA and cryosphere more resembles 2008. Best winter in decades en route....or at least a rival to that title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Hmm, are they good for me lol? They feature a big trough up by AK with higher heights over the US. The NAO looks to go more positive too. Despite the pattern, it's not a torch verbatim which may mean more alternating warm/cold? Again, this is week 3 and 4 so you never know if they will be accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im assuming this current pattern persists for the next 2-4 weeks but the PNA is not as negative. If thats the case, dare I say, 1999? lol If we see consistent alternating temperatures then I'm guessing this would lead to more storminess would it not? If we have a strong temperature gradient maybe we can create nice healthy storms but timing is key and the location as well. It does how ever look similar to 2007.

Well yeah...first they aren't all that accurate that far out as you already said, and secondly, even if it verified, it doesn't mean it would last all month and certainly not repeat a '01-'02 winter.

ORH_wxman Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 The wild changes we keep seeing in the ensembles after about D10 are certainly an indication that whatever pattern is coming up is quite volatile in the long wave setup. There's probably a lot of uncertainty in how long the -EPO wants to hang around after developing in the Nov 17-18 time period...today's ensembles destroy it extremely quickly and also have the NAO worse looking than yesterday.
