"Michio Kaku joins CBS This Morning to warn 250 million Americans that “we are in the bullseye” and by midweek, “all hell’s going to break loose” as America prepares to be pummeled by something sounding almost Biblical, ‘BomboGenesis’. Kaku warns that air, train and vehicle traffic could be paralyzed next week, and schedules disrupted"

Joe Cioffi:

 

 

IT IS BECOMING A LITTLE MORE "FASCINATING"

EUROPEAN AND GFS SAY SOME SNOW FOR THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY

ANOTHER EVENT POSSIBLE NEXT MONDAY NIGHT

BELOW NORMAL TO MUCH BELOW NORMAL TEMPS BEGINNING THURSDAY AND LASTING WELL INTO NEXT WEEK

Since we are inside 5 days I think it may be time to start discussing the possibilities for Thursday night into Friday. Once again we have an instance where the models have something and then lose in the mid range before finding it again.

First and foremost is the issue of temperature. At the 850mb level the temp goes from +10c on Thursday morning to -6 to -10 by Friday morning. Precipitation would be Thursday night into Friday morning so it becomes a matter of when cold air arrives. Since we can't see in between maps we have to guess that it becomes favorable for snow in the NY NJ LONG ISLAND CT AREA SOMETIME BETWEEN 8PM AND MIDNIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT. So the next issue will be figuring precipitation arrival time, how much will fall and ending time. Right now my guess is that precip arrives late Thursday evening and is probably done Friday morning at some point. Since I can only at this point speak in the broadest of terms, lets just say that Thursday night into Friday we will see rain arriving that changes to snow..and there is the potential for some accumulating snow, though at this point my guess is that since total precip is probably 0.5" or less that we are not talking anything major here. Note that the European does wind up with a pretty deep low in New Brunswick (Canada not New Jersey) by Saturday morning.

Beyond that it looks like a gulf low might be here for Monday of next week...maybe a snow to rain event? And then more to follow as the core of the cold air overtakes the eastern states.

So in sumary..an event seems more likely Thursday night into Friday..and there could be some snow out of it..and more events to follow in the days ahead.

Joe Cioffi & Larry Cosgrove's thoughts:

 

Larry Cosgrove has his view on the longer term and Joe goes along with this.

Active storm track across Dixie and along Eastern Seaboard will bring chances for heavy rain and snow (as far south and east as the Tennessee Valley and Appalachia). Arctic air forecast to remain across eastern 2/3 of U.S. through November 26.

he always thinks there will be a snowstorm next week...even in July... :devilsmiley:

When you're whole life revolves around "global cooling" there is always a blizzard on the horizon. Jb is a big body builder (claims to be all natural) reality is some of the " juice " is getting to his head. I still love the guys enthusiasm and he has forgotten more then I will ever know about long range forecasting

Glenn Schwartz just issued his winter forecast for Philly. Coldest winter in years with January being -5degrees below normal. 40-45Inches of snow.

Is he normally conservative or no? If not then do you know the METS who typically are and what they have to say about this winter. I assume even they have a snowy forecast.

Almost all METS who have any sort of credibility are calling for cold and snowy/epic. Either their right or its a biblical bust coming :lol:

Which is one thing that worries me. If they all busted last season then there's always the chance they bust this season although almost every factor indicates a snowy winter this time.

Factoring in all the tele connections, I really don't  foresee a bust. I think worse case scenario we end up with a normal winter. Best case we end up with an epic winter  like '96.
