SP Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 This is from the Brookhaven Office from the previous arctic outbreak. Kind of puts the whole polar vortex into the proper perspective. 1551739_756725887690062_1226106066_n.png THANK YOU TONY!!!!!! Bravo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Still keeping a close eye on the January 26-28 period as something may try and develop out of a clipper system similar to the current system though likely not as severe at this point. Showing up on guidance now finally as well. Indices aren't great but haven't been all winter. Been solidly watching this threat for 8 days already. Stay tuned.

JamieOber Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Wow, I have read some funny $hit on this board and this is right up there. No, that would be the overreaction the weekend about the phantom blowtorch on the GFS that had no other support. Now that's comedy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieOber Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 hi...we don't take kindly to sanity and rational thought processes around here...we're going to have to ask you to leave... I'm sorry. I'll leave as soon as I can get the door open. It's frozen shut from all this ordinary cold before the blowtorch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harbourton Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Since mid - December the synoptic pattern has been dominated by a -EPO that pulsates east in two week periods creating a gateway for the polar votes to drop in closer than in the recent years. We'll see it will repeat in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 ECM ensembles would indicate quite the weather war setting up out towards the super bowl with snow north and ice / rain far south in SEPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 You guys are lucky you got the fluke storm. Looks like rain next weekend, epic pattern bust. Up north will likely get a mixed bag next weekend. Still looking for the Wiggim storm. Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harbourton Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 The overall pattern has changed as witnessed by the emergence of the pineapple express which has been missing all year.

Voyager Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Hopefully it means moderation. The prolonged cold and especially the extreme periods are/were quite annoying. Hoping for a February thaw in the near future... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCT777 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hmmm...been hearing about the chance for ice/slop late Monday night into early Tuesday. I guess we'll see a separate thread on that soon. Definitely will be warmer starting Tuesday afternoon and lasting the rest of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbourton Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Since HM sounded the alert on late Feb-early March, I checked the teleconnections and there may be an opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famartin Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Since HM sounded the alert on late Feb-early March, I checked the teleconnections and there may be an opportunity. This current storm fell in one of those, and several others have as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quakertown needs snow Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 After this brief warm-up looks like we head back to winter mode with storm chances, at least that's what the model runs are indicating at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
