Rocktober like the old days. Bridging to winter

GEFS? You need something to run ensemble perturbations off of. Then you have other global scale features that some would argue it has some skill in. d16 is definitely a crapshoot synoptically, but no met would seriously put stock in any details it shows past d10. If every run in the extended keeps showing similar teleconnection indices then maybe that is something you have to keep in the back of your mind as well. Other than that, it provides us plenty of nerdy meteorological laughs.

Well you don't need the GFS op to run in the 11-15 day in order to run the GEFS through the 11-15..the perturbations come in the initial conditions of course...The euro ensembles as you may know go out to 360 hrs despite the op only going to 240. I agree with your points though. The details such as storm threats are quite useless, however, occasionally you will see the 11-15 day op latch onto a pattern for a few runs in a row (IE an intense cold shot for the central/east with variations in the day-to-day details) and you can sense that it is definitely onto something.

yeah. Well aware of that. I'm on my phone and it was a pain to retype what I meant. Obviously the perturbations come off of the initial control. I don't really know why I mentioned them. It's one of those space cadet days.

My area is 100% peak color currently. Even the Oaks have changed. About 1 week early or so.

I work down in North Haven for the next few months until home 4 days a week and still only about 50% color in the valley and down 91

It's just the tree species...living at 1k has nothing to do with more color than the CT Valley. Just ask Scott and Ginx.

man these are some cold recent runs of the GFS...

By the way, it's a sad, sad day for America. Mongo, the horse punching lurch from Blazing Saddles died

Semi-Octobomb in the "believeable" range. Just a few hundred miles north od the last one lol, and I guess you can't compare a 210kt 250 jet to 160 kts, but still, that's a storm. I suppose it's the next NAO block...

Just found this on the PBS site:

Part 2 next week on NOVA...how Hawinton, CT took the next step from getting more snow than Princeton, MA to having a shorter growing season than Pittsburg, NH all in less than a year. After the show, stay tuned for an insider look at how Tolland, CT mesonet temperature stations have a super-adiabatic lapse rate between 700 and 1,000 feet.
