FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 at 54 hours, still closed lobe, deep trough coming onshore southern Calif. The 1036 High is ridging down from Canada stretchinginto the Plains, deep eastern vortex offshore in a great spot. At 60 hours, strong closed low in southern California. I was wondering if the sudden amp would cause a cutoff, instead of open wave. Great look so far. But its still early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Is this good for ATL>? Thanks for all your map help....:snowman: I mentioned this last night and believe it deserves repeating, as posting is becoming more active... We are still over 120hrs out! Trying to focus on a static point at this range is impossible, and very premature. We all have at-least a little bit of weather knowledge, and know what can go wrong at this stage. Focus on the overall consensus, look for continuity, and identify trends. Take the middle road towards a less extreme (our best case iyby scenario) solution, and you will be served well. If we have unanimous agreement at 48hrs, then we can get into the specifics of who and where might get what. Until then, the potential is there, but it could just as easily be gone tomorrow with a weak wave scooting across the FL panhandle and OTS, or a phased bomb riding the coast and slamming the MA and NE. Middle road right now looks good, and that is all. p.s. Cold Rain needs to start our new thread once this one gets too big, as he is the one who guaranteed us this storm and it would be bad Karma imo for it not to carryover to the next thread.

FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Also, I'm very impressd with the cold ridging so far down across teh Plains. Rememember theres snowpack and the vortex offshore the east is going to suck northerly winds straight from Canada all the way ahead of this storm through the Deep South and Southeast. Looks cold at 850 compared to other models. At 72, inverted trough forming in southern plains, Rain in Texas. Upper low is central to NW AZ.

Does this run appear further N or S compared to the 00z Euro or is it about the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 excellent set up at 72: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 at 78 and 84, that vortex off New foundland is very strong. Hope its not too strong. Open wave in norrthern AZ and NM is coming due east across or south of the 4 corners region. At 84, its near west Texas. Looks like the strong high ahead of it is going to provide the cold air and this cold is very entrenched in the East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Speed wise through 72 it looks to be on par with 12z NAM/GFS, the Euro is closed off where the NAM/GFS are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Due to the 120+ hours off. Not much of anything. This would change by say, Wednesday as needed. What are local tv mets saying on air in North Carolina? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Hour 90. Strong moisture convergence beginning in the inverted trough in Ne TEX adn eastern Ok. Good precip has accumulated in the western High plains thus far. At hour 96, still no real sign ofa surface low in Texas really , but snow in Mo , kansas and precip pushing east.

Wow Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Day 4 Euro. Still looks great. Here comes that s/w from the Dakotas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaleighWx Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 At hour 96, southern stream s/w a little slower than 00z run, if anything the 50/50 low is stronger and surface high over plains is ridging further south. If i had to make a call right now, i would think this simulation is as far south if not further south than ht e00z run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 at 102, the zero goes from northenr NC to southern Mo. Looks like the energy in Dakatoas is poised to phase with the Texas open wave later on. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 at 108, just west of the Mis. Valley is where the axis of moisture is, along the inverted trough. Energy is diving into the open wave, we'll see if it scoots it or phases with it. Tension! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Forecasting possible snow for a day like Christmas as far down as CLT is quite a bit irresponsible. Hope they don't do it around here. EDIT: That sounds bad. Not you guys.. local media hyping it already could cause some problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 1012 low in Fl, and snow over most of the interior Southeast at 126. Looks like good amounts have already occurred in N. Ala, Ga, Tenn and western Carolinas. Cold! Snow is about to ATL or the burbs. The full phase maybe delayed or denied thanks to the strong newfoundland vortex though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
