February Banter Thread


NEG NAO

Recommended Posts

Getting severe weather north of the M/D line in Late Feb is very anomolous. Perhaps further inland, but the coastal areas won't see much, in my opinon..

Agreed, even though SSTs are WAY above normal right now, mid-upper 40s ocean temps will still be kryptonite for any tstorms approaching the CP.

You would generally want a storm track a good bit to the north and west of where the Euro has it for any storms here anyway...you need to broaden the warm sector this time of year. As it is right now..maybe a thin line of "storms" (aka heavy rain and wind).

Still think we push into the 60s?

Yup, a meaningful driving rainstorm, lol. Sometimes you and Ant need to take off the weenie googles and see the obvious. It's at the point now where there is a much better chance of seeing severe wx, then snow.

I don't think it's the weenie goggles; the weenie goggles would be thinking there is a good chance in this winter. The next ten days are still in winter, and some runs cool us off, so it's not unreasonable to track it.

check this out-AMWX gets mentioned in PHilly.com article

Winter white flag?

In a post yesterday we noted that the meteorological winter of 2011-12 -- that's the December through February period -- could crack into the top 3 for warmth in Philadelphia.

And it appears that if February goes out like a lamb, nature won't have to change into a new costume in March.

It will be moderately chilly during the weekend with March-like winds due Friday, but this is about to become the 12th winter in the period of record that a winter passed without a single three-day stretch of temperatures below 35 in Philadelphia.

The Washington-based Commodities Weather Group observed this morning that the 11-to 15-day outlook is generally warm for the East.

CWG also said it was turning up the burners in its forecast for all of March, based on persistence and the continuing cooler-than-normal waters in the tropical Pacific.

As for storm threats, we noticed that on the American Weather Forums chat board someone had started a thread about something brewing at the end of the month, but the credentialed weathermen are writing off that prospect as hallucinatory.

Should the March outlook work out, CWG is saying that for parts of the nation, this could become the warmest November to March period ever.

A hardware store owner complained that he sold more mulch than rock salt in January, and now it may be time to put all those rocks in storage.

I'm definitely concerned about busting the period post March 7. There is quite a large difference between the Roundy MJO guidance (which shows the MJO zipping through the phase space, getting into P7 by March 11 and P1 by the 18th) and the Euro Weekly Ensemble (which shows the MJO in P5 and P6 at those same periods, respectively). The Roundy guidance would bring cold back to the East much more quickly than the Euro, which shows very warm temps through its Week 3 and Week 4 periods.
