January 25-26 Storm Potential

Yeah thankfully BOX put out a map so folks are prepared for the 8" on Friday night.

I'm also surprised that they'd put out a map this early, but I really think folks are overreacting re: the public impact. I'd venture that 90% of the traffic they get on that page is from junkies like us; the general population gets its forecasts from local TV, radio or TWC.

Hope you haven't wavered from your regionwide 4-8 inch call at noontime for all of SNE

Nope...except prob eastern SNE now. If it looks like it does at 12z tomorrow then that gets punted.

While I love giving you crap, it pains me that you have a couple valid points and this one could easily nudge back north. I do think its game over for CNE/NNE.

The NAO is neutral.. So use some simple deduction and what that should mean for a storm track

Right but go back to my post earlier today. There is no block to force it south, but progressive flow can cause a lack of amplification.

But, I have a suspicion it tries to tickle NW over the next 24 hours of guidance.

Contrary to what some believe I do know what I'm talking about and back it up with reasoning.

I was looking at the last 4 GFS runs earlier and didn't like how every run is slower in moving the Thursday s/w out of here. It's giving our s/w less opportunity to amplify.

I said from 3 days back I suspected that clipper blowing up off the Delmarva could be a problem because the very first GFS run that lost the storm, I think the 06Z run 2-3 nights ago had that disturbance exploding.

I thought about that but when I looked, it moved away in time. To me, the difference was out west. I mean....it might affect it to some extent, but I didn't think it was detrimental.

It's voodoo

 

It is when there's a bunch of embedded speedmaxes in the flow.  It's a placement and timing issue more than strength to some degree as we found the other night.

 

Yeah, they are sending the recon flights just to be extra sure the storm will be suppressed.

 

This won't be suppressed you just live too far north.

We toss these thoughts.

These thoughts are tossed as well.

I agree that it doesn't look detrimental, especially for you guys, but I didn't care for the run-to-run trend wrt that. The s/w coming ashore out west was definitely crappier on the 18z run too. I've been on the eventual NW trend camp for a few days and I'm staying the course, but I'm having doubts for mby. I'll wait out 00z before getting too pessimistic for here.

so will this be in the 0z models or do we have to wait?

II. PACIFIC REQUIREMENTS

1. NEGATIVE RECONNAISSANCE REQUIREMENTS.

2. OUTLOOK FOR SUCCEEDING DAY.....NEGATIVE.

3. REMARK: TODAY'S NOAA G-IV MISSION FOR TRACK P-46 WILL

NOW BE FLOWN CLOCKWISE WITH A 22/1900Z TAKEOFF TIME AND

CONTROL POINT SET AT DROP POINT 8 FOR 23/0000Z.

Don't get me wrong, I'm concerned about a nice altostratus deck here too. 

 

Just my previous experience with the PAC stuff makes me think the GFS especially is too flat...but it's not like I feel 90/10 about this.

Wise choice, NCEP guidance has been overshooting generally on the changes.  Hold the course until after the 0z.

That would have to be in the 00z suite I'd guess if they are dropping it at 00z.
