Moving past first week of January General Discussion/banter

Didn't you just say the good news is that it's not getting pushed back? LOL.

 

It depends on how strong the blocking is in the NAO region and up by AK. As modeled, it's fine...but I could see us riding the line if a few things aren't lined up perfectly. Besides, many times coastal areas are on the line anyways...lol. Lets get later into this week and see where we are from there. I don't think anything changed today...actually feel decent about some winter right now.

 

Had a whole post typed and of course it didn't take.  Does anyone else notice the quotes don't list the quoter?

 

I didn't buy the speed of the Euro cool down, I figured 1/18ish.  Now I am worried a bit that we're seeing similarties to the earlier pattern of the cold thrusting west of us and then following the low tracks NE into Canada (high pressure still too far west off the west coast etc).  We get the dribble over cold with random shots of true cold.  essentially a similar sensible weather pattern to what we had but more climo cold.

 

We will see, I do have slightly less faith in a major cold pattern change than I did yesterday, may just be a blip.

Yeah...still looks like somewhere between the 15-20th it turns colder with snow chances. The only thing this really affects is my area where the hope was to mute the torch a bit. Instead, we may not even be able to mute the John Mayer.

 

Yeah I would agree with you and Jerry. I think I'm gonna wait until later this week to see if models still hold onto this look. Still far out to get excited for my personal taste, but I'm hoping they're correct. At least it seems some global indices are supporting it.

Must be a browser issue for you. What are you using?

 

I noticed this a few times earlier. A poster would reply to my remark, but it would show both my reply and the previous post from the poster, all in one quote...kind of like what happened a few days ago. It's better now.

Lots of pressure for late jan thru late feb to produce , sad that the cp wasted almost all of dec and 1'st half of jan, at least what fell last week stayed around.

????

Pickles, your expectations are based on epic winters. They come but not frequently in the big scheme.

IE was giving me crap with funcionality.  Was suggested I try in Chrome.  Too lazy to download it but ot a lot of functionality back by opening in firefox.

IE 10 Win 8.  The two issues are when I'm quoting in the exit box it lists the quote but not the quoter.  Secondly it times out when trying to post at times and loses the post in the process.

Yea but since we were discussing the OP I thought ... anyway since you brought it up, EnS have consistently brought us out of the doldrums by the 15th.

 

True but it's slowing down.  The 0z GEFS had us about approaching -6 to -8 by 12z on the 16th, this run is +2 with the SE ridge hanging on longer.   We'll see if that continues my vote is yes, and the cold air continues to be delayed.  I wonder if the eventual pattern is still going to feature the plunge from the Dakotas to Texas and we're mainly left with the cold air coming at us from the west. (that's not really a bad thing, it's produced well at times this year)

Euro may be going overboard there to some extent...but do think odds still favor at least one very mild day sandwiched around the rest of the meh.

 

Yeah I've been favoring this. Euro is still really only one disastrous day. It doesn't show 4-5 days of torchure like the GFS shows on some runs.

After digging out from this morning's snowstorm, I took a drive over to our local lake in Bolton. We walked out onto the ice of Middle Bolton Lake after seeing a fisherman leaving for the day and telling us the ice was 4-5" thick. This is my first time out on this lake and there where several folks out skating on the far shore and alot of ice fishing holes bored into the ice from previous fishing. This lake is relatively high in elevation at 700' so it is a bit colder than Coventry Lake which still has alot of open water at this point in time.

tue/wed look pretty warm with sun and westerly downsloping flow

 

Thats going to be the classic day where its 48-49F in the downslope spots that have little snow pack while its 7-8F cooler in the hills. I think Wed is going to be warmer...it looks like better mixing that day.

Gun to kneecap.. Do we escape with cover before winter returns day 9?

 

 

 

No....I'll prob escape with partial cover up here in the woods. But most of the open areas should be wiped out. I think it will take until the final assault though. We'll keep it until next weekend.
