ACFD FIREMAN Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Well since the gulf of Mexico encompasses about 2000 square miles, asking for a simple slp somewhere in it doesn't seem that absurd. Read more, post less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristowWx Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 18z has a slp east of HAT... Mod snow falling at 162 It does look pretty on that one frame but I think everyone is worn down from this winter. Nothing has worked out for us so unless it is on the Euro and GFS come Friday night the excitement level will be zilch. Just not our year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not our year Also even then, it's pretty east and also not a ton of precip either. Fringe not that it matters at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I think the main thing here is that there is "something". There's really no way to know what that may be. Remember that in the past weeks "event" we went from a full blown coastal to a low near Iowa to a weaker low tracking e-w south of us. This time it seems the GFS, and not the Euro, is throwing out at least some hope, but it probably the best bet to just focus on Wed and maybe a little light snow and by then we might have some idea about the weekend. Edit: GFS ens members don't support the op solution for the weekend at all. I guess if I'm going to post HPC disco when it says what I like, then I guess I'll post it when it isn't so pretty. CANADA IS COOLED TREMENDOUSLY VIA THE CROSS-POLAR FLOW INTO THE COUNTRY...BUT THE ARCTIC AIR HAS NO MECHANISM BY WHICH TO INFILTRATE THE UNITED STATES TO ANY APPRECIABLE DEGREE. THE FLOW IS ALSO NOT CONDUCIVE TO SIGNIFICANT CYCLOGENESIS...SO EXPECT NO SPRAWLING AREAS OF ORGANIZED PRECIPITATION. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 That's a pretty potent little 500v swinging through here Thursday morning too. Looks like the upper levels are bone dry. 3 of the latest gfs ens members do create what would this year be an "event" out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 ... It's nearly a week out. Even expecting that kind of consensus is outrageous especially in a year where the models have been bouncing around as much as they have. Come on...at least let rational thoughts prevail over weenie thoughts. You're asking for quite a lot there, Kenny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdude Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 The NAM looks cold enough for snow to me. Cold enough at all levels with the exception of the surface. It can snow in the upper 30s, lower 40s and temps could trend cooler with these systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
