jburns Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Sung to the tune of, The First Noel The great Southeast ridge, is coming to stay. So get your kids ready, to go out and play. It comes in from the East, where they saw a star. And it warms up the country, both near and far. Southeast ridge, Southeast ridge, Southeast ridge, Southeast ri-idge The only cool place left is inside your fridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 well the indices change day to day so they'll support what we're seeing changing on the models if you stare at them long enough and refresh the image daily.LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SN_Lover Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I don't believe any of that unless the indices start showing it. The -EPO is probably only going to give us a repeat of November with transient shots of cold air. Anyway enjoying the record warmth for the next few days. the indices are what's happening in the synoptic level with different occilations. The 18z run is pretty comical. somehow the shortwave moves west and is cutoff off the coast of CA. As the ridge in the pacific increases the trough amplifies with vorticity magically appearing to the right of the ridge in the pacific. These time frames are not meant to be taken seriously. I only forecast trends at < 250hr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackerel_sky Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Anybody else miss the Christmas music on TWC local on the 8s? It's always a great time of year, and it usually would go hand in hand with potential wintry weather events.

metalicwx366 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 My backyard in Chicago had 71 inches of snow in the 2007-08 winter. The city picked up 60.3 that winter. We had mountains of snow in the yard. Those were the times. I always loved the blowing snow for some reason. I think I have been through only one true blizzard. It was the one where Cantore got frostbite on his nose. We only picked up 0.5 but we had blizzard conditions all night. Never seen anything like that.

I never knew why they did, but I thought that was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalicwx366 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 Wow a lot of you missed out on the December 1989 Christmas snow. I would love to have a repeat of this.

superjames1992 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I can't blame winter cancel.....ers. We've haven't had a good snowstorm in years. We've been blanked before, what's to say it wouldn't happen again? I wouldn't cancel though personally till the beginning of Feb if things don't look good...at the earliest. Didn't the February storm last year work out pretty well for Charlotte? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackerel_sky Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 That would be a cruel joke. If we go from rain and warm to super suppressed cold and Waycross gets snow. That would cause a lot of mayhem and meltdowns on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowNiner Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Didn't the February storm last year work out pretty well for Charlotte? Yeah, we got about 2-3 inches I think. I don't really call that a storm though. It was the back end of a storm from a "lee trough" or something. Lasted about 45 minutes. It was the heaviest snow I've seen in years though. It was nice but it felt more like a fluke accident than a snowstorm. It actually got sunny after the pre-storm went by....then the line of snow formed and came through, dumped, then it was completely gone. All in about an hour.
