tombo82685 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The good news is the flow has been fast fast fast...in this case we want it to be as fast as possible for the shortwave to beat that 500mb low. what i dont get, is that h5 vortex is pretty far north like 300-400 miles wnw of maine, does that really have the capability of squashing the low that far south? It seems like the low should be further north, assuming we are talking about the same h5 vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombo82685 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Why is the EURO so much slower and further south than the GFS? here is the h5 from the euro at hr 192, you see that big h5 low wnw of maine, the gfs has this low further north and west not squashing it as much. Atleast this is what i think the issue is in regards to why its further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 H5 looks better though....I pointed out some things on both the UKMET and GFS, you'll see they are relatively close at H5 I'll be watching how the UKMET handles this system.It had the OTS solution 12z Thursday while the other models were hitting us with snow. From HPC discussion Thursday: 12Z UKMET NOW DEEPER AND A BIT FARTHER OFF WHILE THE OP CMC HAS A 976 MB LOW NEAR THE NORTHEAST BENCHMARK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From HPC discussion Thursday: 12Z UKMET NOW DEEPER AND A BIT FARTHER OFF WHILE THE OP CMC HAS A 976 MB LOW NEAR THE NORTHEAST BENCHMARK Relatively speaking for the last two events, the can ggem and fim were the steadiest in our corridor. The UKMET did not do well with last weekend's event, following it would have had more of an ill effect in the Great Lakes than our area. The fim output today is similar to the Euro.

Absolute Humidity Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 might wanna take a look at the current system..18z Nam says I'm not dead yet Yes, it puts out about an inch along the jersey coast and long island, maybe a litte more eastern end. Move it left 50 miles more west and many areas are in business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is the FIM in general? I know it's experimental, but is it something we should regularly following like we do the major globals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to see the PNA forecasted to rise heading into next weekend but we'll have to wait and see if all the pieces can come together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know. I have been just taking looks at it for this weekend and last. It had alot of scraping solutions for this weekend and sided with the euro last weekend. For all I know it could be a stopped clock syndrome. But, since relatively speaking its had the right idea twice, I'm going to keep on looking.

supermeh Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 NAM at 60 has clipper system stronger and further north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombo82685 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 NAM at 60 has clipper system stronger and further north only issue now is that the coastal is basically sitting in the gulf of maine, meaning its even more likely to be sheared out.

SnowGoose69 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Why do I just have a horrible feeling in my stomach about what is coming on the 00Z runs for tonight regarding tomorrow and Monday morning?

Absolute Humidity Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Actually, 18 z NAM .25 - .50 line touches LBI, Eastern LI and all of RI, touches Boston and the cape gets crushed. This just interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 can you please elaborate on this further? I'm worried about the seemingly progressive inching of the precip shield closer on each run...of course I tend to always worry about my forecasts busting so its nothing unusual.

Collegestudent11 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I have heard the NAM has a tendency to crush the N/W extent of the precipitation shield. On the 18z the .25 line it about 10 miles away from the .1 line in Southeast Coastal New Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
