Brian5671 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Euro is also close with something next week. At least all the models have a potential storm. I'm going to start tracking it. We will all wait with bated breath for the conclusion which we all already know.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 From your keyboard to God's ears. There is a nice ridge rolling east on practically all models and all ensembles but with a +nao and other negative factors, once again we need a perfectly timed shortwave to round the base.

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 In theory yes but the pattern hasn't been conducive to large coastal storms or nor'easters this year. The funny thing is there have been some major storms further east out in the maritimes with pressure less then 970. So the there is potential, it just has not been realized closer to home.

Stormlover74 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I'm convinced the only way we get a good snowstorm this year is with a sneak attack type of event. Something that looks putrid and then 24 hours before we get a last minute trend of the models and get a nice surprise event.

pazzo83 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I do. It makes for a GREAT Striped bass fishing season, as it keeps the water temperatures low and the fish stay around longer, instead of migrating north for cooler waters. 2009 was a FABULOUS striped bass season. So please give me a summer just like that. Thanks. Hey! Come visit! - Atlantic Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Want Irony ?

Isotherm Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Well in summer I've read that a -NAO can promote a torch. Yeah it depends on the situtation, pattern in place, etc, but -NAO's have a tendency to torch particularly in mid/late summer when the mid latitude jet continues its progression poleward, and the Greenland block essentially "hooks up" with the SE ridge, forming a large zone of above normal heights from the Eastern US downstream to the north atlantic.

Only thing that makes a storm more possible is wavelengths are beginning to shorten up as we get into March, and you can have a synoptic where there's a trough on the West Coast, trough in the East with a low closing off. This a long shot but this pattern in March is probably slightly more favorable than January due to wavelengths alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
