andyhb Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 HPC discussion on that trough in the medium range: DAYS 5-7 DETAILS ARE FAR FROM COMPLETE...BUT IN THIS PATTERN...THE10/00Z GEFS/ECMWF ENSEMBLES AND THEIR MEANS PROVIDE A GENERAL GUIDELINE FOR THE FLOW PATTERN AND WAVE TRAIN DEVELOPING ACROSS THE PACIFIC AND DOWNWIND INTO NORTH AMERICA. IN THAT...TYPHOON 22W (PRAPIROON)...CURRENTLY INVOF 18.9N 129.8E...WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME ENTRAINED INTO THE FLOW AND INJECT SUBTROPICAL ENERGY AND DYNAMICS INTO THE WAVE TRAIN CROSSING THE NORTHEAST PACIFIC. THIS IN TURN WILL LIKELY PRODUCE SOME AMPLIFICATION OF THE FLOW ALONG THE WEST COAST AND EAST PAC. FOR THE PRELIMINARY GRAPHICS...THE 00Z CANADIAN/GFS WERE THE BETTER PIECES OF GUIDANCE TO DRAW UP SOME OF THE FINER DETAILS OF THE WAVE PROGRESSION DOWNWIND OF THE ROCKIES AND ACROSS THE MIDWEST AND EAST.

Geos Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Down to 37° as of 8pm. Probably another frosty night tonight. What the 18z GFS is showing for precipitation this weekend. - at least most of that will fall on the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherdavewi Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Raw day here with hvy lake effect and wind. Rain/ snow mix never really changing over totally. Inland around Gaylord there has been some snow stick cars and higher hiltops. If this had all been snow, it'd have been a nice accumulation. Nice to see te flakes flying tho!! Some nice banded snow for a few hours this evening around the Gaylord area. Took this shot from the NWS office this evening. Officially measured 0.5". Ground still quite white as of 1130pm.

wisconsinwx Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I'm almost in denial at this point that we could get 1 to 2 inches of rain from a storm system. There have been so few of these in recent months that it is hard for me to accept. We'll probably dryslot like SE Michigan with most winter systems.

Right now it looks really good for moderate to heavy rain. Especially with the low shifting south on the GFS. Will probably see more rain from the warm front. Another night of frost here. --- Nice picture Gaylordwx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Boundary layer is in the low 40s and calm but just overhead at 850 hPa there's strong warm air advection. Warm sector should peak around sunrise before the cold front comes through sometime in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trapperman Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 The GFS still will not cough it up to the Euro. That trough mid to late week next week which is never going to verify is a thing of beauty. heh. Coughs it up after 240 though. Get ready for another torch at the end of October.

Geos Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Low 33° early this morning, before WAA kicked in. Now it's crazy windy again. Gusts approaching 30mph for sure. ...Freeze advisories again for SE WI? - Is it really worth it still? 6z GFS showing a total washout on Sunday as well in the Devil's Lake area where I'm planning to go!

Brewers Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 ...Freeze advisories again for SE WI? - Is it really worth it still? MKX mentioned this in their discussion the other day "HAVE ENDED FROST AND FREEZE HEADLINES FOR THE SEASON ACROSS AREAS TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF MADISON DUE TO MORE WIDESPREAD HARD FREEZE. HOWEVER MADISON HAS YET TO FALL BELOW FREEZING ALONG WITH SOME LAKESHORE AREAS. DESPITE A FEW LOCATIONS HAVING FALLEN BELOW FREEZING FARTHER EAST...PER COORDINATION WITH LOT WILL CONTINUE FROST/FREEZE HEADLINES A FEW MORE DAYS FROM FOND DU LAC AND SHEBOYGAN SOUTH TO BEAVER DAM...MADISON AND MONROE AND POINTS EAST OF THIS LINE DUE TO LACK OF WIDESPREAD HARD FREEZE."

Ok, that's why. I thought Dane, Rock, Jefferson, Waukesha had a widespread freeze already. It's strange, the growing season (trees have been "awake" longer) here was 29 days shorter this year compared to last year! 190 vs. 161. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
