ORH_wxman Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 It's the op but this sure looks like some potential to me. If that Aleutian ridge upstream from the GOA low builds, that isn't too bad...its a gradient pattern if that happens...if the Aleutian ridge cannot build at all, then it could be more of a torch. There's also a pseudo block in the Hudson bay region from split that branches off north of the great lakes. ITs definitely a torch pattern for the south and prob southeast verbatim. But we could probably do OK in that. The key is keeping heigh enough heights up in the Bering straight. Ensembles keep thing amplified enough. What we don't want is for that vortex to retrograde a bit northwest...that would be ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ace0927 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Steady snow, a cold dark winters day.

Tropopause_Fold Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Torch is incoming from the SW though...but it might take a while. that's an impressive map. hate warm-ups but they are so much more entertaining when a high slips away in this fashion...instead of just meh WSW flow.

OSUmetstud Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 The 00z ec ensemble mean agrees fairly well with that image I posted. I'd just like to see more ridging over mainland AK..not super low heights. The GEFS shifts the low heights into the Aleutians and has substantial ridging into mainland AK.

CoastalWx Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 The snow is fluffy, so you have that weenie melting from insolation and the ground not terribly cold. Still looks nice on the grass and trees and anything not acting too much like a black body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HM Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Quick thoughts because I have to run. Watch the weekend system trend perhaps cooler in the coming days while the day 10 system trends more suppressed, assuming the big players are being modeled correctly. Agree with tip about the heather signal here and potential this period holds between Dec 7-12. The Alaskan Low / RNA is very concerning down the road. Split vortex in strat has commenced and this brief -NAO period is being allowed because of it. I agree with the EURO to break it down quickly and not allow for a west based -NAO given the prediction of the strat tornado moving back toward Greenland.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 For awhile the system that brought Kevin his 3+ and gave a lot of us flurries was modeled to be an inside runner. Gradually it slipped further SE. It was snowing pre-dawn when I was up for a minute. That would make this the 4th time we've had snow here although with no accumulations. Still pretty cool for the "cape" this early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No... that lift/line is the one called Minuteman. It is a high speed quad that services Ralph's, Challenger, etc. The new lift is the Monadnock, on the left side of the mountain as you face it. It services the beginner areas like Indian Summer... Here it is a few minutes ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
