December Pattern Disco- 2013


Damage In Tolland

Recommended Posts

Well yeah, but just looking at what the models have been offering up (aside from last night's 00z ECM) for next weekend looks a lot like the recent systems we've seen.

 

 

Bulk of the precip with the storm being in the warm sector and really struggling to get precip into the cold dome.  I'm not worried about getting something to wrap up rather than be a really fast moving positive tilt system with only a little light precip on the NW side.

 

The GGEM (not the best model though) has been showing it, and the 6z GFS looks sort of similar.

I think one point is a week out go by ensembles and hot the op depiction despite now favorable it is (to me) today.

Oh most certainly, that was just an example of the type of systems we've been seeing, and they are still showing up on models as coming up.

 

Even the massive QPF bomb 10 days ago didn't get much precipitation into the cold sector and it was a snowfall bust for most of the NW flank.  I'm not saying this is most certainly going to happen, but its not like these things are closing off mid-levels and really advecting moisture back into the cold dome.  They are all seemingly walking a fine line in this pattern, with most of them all front-end loaded if that makes sense.

Merry Christmas Kevin in your hood in Hollis. I love when the LR finally depicts Christmas day, right or wrong, always my favorite runs to watch tick down. This rivals 1983, but of course la la land

This hasn't really been discussed, but some of the guidance looks pretty windexy for Wednesday evening/night. Not really the classic arctic front windex event with the temp differential and LI spike...but some decent PVA could carry some LES activity into SNE.

Not disagreeing that it wasn't cold..but to call it warm...is reeeeaallly stretching it

 

 

It was above average...even if a couple days were near average. Culminated in the furnace on friday.

 

 

It was a mild stretch.

 

Yeah Burlington's running +3.7F right now, although mostly due to the 3rd, 5th, and 6th. Yesterday was the first below normal day of the month.

repeat of November, bottom drop time. Hopefully you like to enjoy the bitter cold that is coming.

nice pickup Will. Pure winter

 

 

It has that look of a lot of snow showers before the coldest air comes in Wednesday night. The PVA often "picks up" the LES streamers and carries them downstream for a time...helping sustain them for a ways before finally drying up.

The JFM period has some rather high + 500mb anomalies into SNE, but also a real nice AK/Aleutian ridge. Seems like same pattern as we have now...although the height anomalies seemed a little higher than I would expect here. FMA was much cooler.

 

Maybe Ekster and I can get a nice two for one deal on toasters.
