Bob Chill Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yeah, I think there's something to the idea of storm tracks getting established in the late fall, which I've heard some people refer to as "atmospheric memory". Really we're talking about where the baroclinic zones are being setup in the atmosphere. The Gulf Stream/E. Coast is a natural baroclinic zone, but you want cold air onshore for it to really crank. Hence we want to keep that SE ridge supressed, but not completely gone, while we get polar airmasses established to our north. Very well said and is pretty much spot on to what I'm thinking and/or hoping. Agree about the SE ridge too. We definitely don't want it completely gone or we end up dry and cold. I'll take a progressive UA pattern anyday. Series of troughs, vorts, and ridges works with me. Combine this with some extended -nao/ao stuff and we'll be able to ice skate on the ponds too. Conventional nina thinking would be the presistent trough west and ridge E and potentially a stubborn se ridge. The more time that goes by this fall without that happening keeps me pretty optimistic.

Ian Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Residents of Washington, D.C., were surely surprised to see that on Saturday, October 29, there is a slight chance of snow predicted in the metro area.

Ian Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 good lord, poor Wes. Eh it's kinda neat to see the reach CWG has. Tho this looks like something they pulled from a low level contributor and it's not that good of a piece. Media as a whole has a way of beefing up stories in leads... Gotta get readers. Probably more exciting than 'it's probably going to be a cold rainy one in dc' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I coul dsee a cold rain, I still don't see snow but may get to do another article. Ya, above freezing for 2,700 to 3,000 feet per the GFS. Don't have Euro soundings to look at but I'd bet they look colder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
