NorthShoreWx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Appears much more logical, thanks. I'm guessing the AP records don't extend back thru 1917. A lot of coop stations came "on line" on 8/1/48. If Pittsburgh's is one of those, it also misses 1933 abd the most recent (IIRC) Dec sub-zero for NYC, in 1942. NYC was -1 on 12/25/1980. That is the record at Central Park for Christmas day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Talking nationally, about as impressive an Arctic outbreak as seen in decades. Nice to see early season thoughts of some extreme intrusions this year panning out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Of course, but it seems sanity sometimes takes a back seat in here. I love winter as much as anyone. Summer can suck a big one for all I care....this is what I live for. It just seems lately if your not all cold and all snow all the time..you're an outsider. I also see some horrible reading comprehension. Talking about what models show doesn't equate to a forecast. one post is all I saw and you act like it is endemic, drama?

Typhoon Tip Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 10-day Canadian temp anomaly has virtually the entire Canadian shield negative, and some areas in south-central approaching extreme values. I've seen this product for years and that's quite rare to have that much mass on the negative side; and the magnitude notwithstanding. If this is your source region you are getting very cold. Question becomes just how zonal the flow is ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of fresh cold lurking and oozing down, meanwhile the lack of blocking in the Atlantic allows these storms to run right up into the cold dome. Over-running and CAD galore.

And not to be self-promoting but I have been bringing this up for a month, that these sort of tele layouts would lend to that. We've actually been lucky ... well, unlucky depending on one's point of view. That 32.3 rain event the other day just needed about a 6 hour sooner onset timing and we would have had .3" glazing event. Just dodged a bullet there.

CoolMike Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Is it me or did the CPC NAO forecast undergo huge changes in the last three days? I think I looked this weekend and now I see a totally different graph. Edit to add: I didn't follow the weather with my usual fervor this weekend but I was sure I saw a +1-+2 SD NAO forecast sometime this weekend.

Tropopause_Fold Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 euro ens still seem to have a bit of mild period with height rises across the CONUS but do also show some troughing returning to the GL / NE toward the end of the run. that said, the PAC region gets a bit less discernible too. still lots of bitter air showing up, especially in W Canada from day 11-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
