December 19th-20 Storm Thread III


Baroclinic Zone

Recommended Posts

The thing is, the NAM may well be a signal for what we'll see at 0Z. It was that way when we were getting dampened down and this may also be the case. GFS will continue to show a miss but 0Z should be way better guidance and we should be able to (maybe not) run with it.

If you are interested, I wrote a discussion that attempts to outline what is going on, and why [most likely] the NAM is doing this.

Gotta look for subtle clues that the GFS may be catching up to the NAM on this run. I mean if it persists in forming the low way out on that baroclinic zone then you wont see a NAM-like solution... But maybe we'll see hints that it is "conflicted" via a more robust inverted trof etc. Then wait for 0Z for any true shift.

On phone so it's tough to see but it hasn't come north right on coast at all

Right when you think it's a miss. This trends any more W, could be a surprise Game On. The 12Z MM5 has this damn close. Kind of looked that way with all the chaos amongst the models. Best to stay conservative and keep the fingers from typing something jibberish. :thumbsup:

My prediction of cweat reappearence dead-on. Like clockwork....he-he-he

Well we've talked about the possible convective feedback off and on for the past few days, but we've got every model popping a weak sfc reflection way off of the coast.

Yeah what you said appears to be coming to SOME fruition in the modeling. I thought when the MAJORITY of GFS ensemble members had a decent hit for eastern NE including the big population centers that was a ruby red flag considering we're within 48 hours.

IF anyone wants a clearer explanation of what I was talking about offshore read John's thread. Clearer=educated :) I don't know why the models do this I just know they do it.

If you look at the 36h 18z 700mb RH vs the 42h 12z you'll see how it all can tie together. We are starting to lose the signal for the bulge east. As a result at 700mb we are a smidge further west but we still have the cut in the moisture. Instead of a real nice comma head we have a NW shield a gap to the north and then more way out associated with the remnant low. So when it wraps up at 700mb it's wrapping in not much. About all our hope rides in the models being wrong on that low center being so far out to sea and instead the northern center takes over.

I'd say just sit and watch at this point.

Not much choice in the matter. I hope you guys get a good across the board nudge come 00z. It'll be nice to have some of the SNE eople getinto synoptic snows from this crazy roller coaster.

I'm sticking with a 50/50 shot of light snow or light rain from about marshfield to new bedford S&E. No clear trend. The RUC waivers around with some hints it's slowing it all down even more than the NAM but it's about at the edge of where it's useful. It's great for tracking features in continent, weak once we deal with features in the ocean. I'd say if its right it's raining on the NAM parade.

Mike love the jaws quote

messenger looking at the current Ncep meso analysis pressures stopped dropping and are steady near south of hatteras and the only pressue falls i can find is near Palm beach, FL lol..

So according to the gfs and euro for that matter the low we are tracking is now near fort myers and will be exiting donald trumps high rises in Palm beach florida later tonite...? no c'mon

you can see a circulation about 100 miles SE of myrtle beach nc... bout 1012/1011 is this are "baby"
