March Pattern and Discussion

I can't remember when the JMA hasn't shown a bomb. It always paints a LOT of color on the maps for qpf. I like the looks of it though.

it only shows qpf in 24 hour periods so that could be why. I liked the way it looked at 500 was really digging that energy towards Louisiana.

HPC is on board with the day 6 through 7, 48hr qpf...

& total for the next 7 days, which should be rather chilly for most

Now that is some pure weather porn! On a side note I read today that as of 3/5/13 HPC will be known as WPC Weather Prediction Center going forward.

How the hell is that a positive change? They change from a great name to a lame Weather prediction center. lol Don't fix something that's not broken.

If you want to be concerned it should be in regards to the phase because without that it will not be cold enough to snow outside of the highest elevations. Having said that, I would caution against getting emotionally involved at this stage. But most of you understand that.

To late, RDU hasn't seen measurable snow in years, we are all in on this, we will be going down with the ship on this one.

This is so close to a "prepare for glory" moment! All hands on deck mates!

 

If the models are close to what the Euro shows today come Sunday 12z, that will be within 72 hours, I will officially start getting excited.  For now, the next 2+ days I will try and find anything negative for something to go wrong.  One positive is the blocking has held up all day on the models.  Hopefully that holds.

Oh, I almost fully expect the Euro to lose the storm, probably on the Saturday runs...hopefully it comes back

Well it depends on how it loses it, if it's simply missing the phase or phasing to late than that won't be as bad, if the blocking starts to weaken than we are in trouble, thats one of those things that won't trend back in our favor.

LOL, I'm with you here pack...I've been through too many of these.  With it being probably being the last storm of the year I'm trying to have some fun with it.

I see no reason not to go all in with this one. It's going to be our last chance. So let's do it right. Hug every model that's trending good and reject every one that keeps the snow away. Oh, wait. That's what we always do. Nevermind.

The block holding is key. That's number 1 for now, IMO. Number 2 is the phase.

I think the blocking with the NE vortex is going to be fine.  The concern I see is the 18z GFS solution of a weaker, faster system.  You want to see strong ridging build behind our cutoff so that it can dig, slow down a bit, and separate itself from the NE blocking vortex...additional northern stream phasing from the Great Lakes would help with that as well (that's where strong western ridging comes in again).

with our luck there will be no LPS at all...

 

i guess the 00z GFS is coming out now and thats why only some of it is available on allans site? its up to 78 hours...looks like the low goes from OKC to friggin nebraska from 84-90.  was this the same one we were watching or am i getting my lows mixed up?  lol i'm very new pardon my ignorance
