Emerging signal for storminess Jan 6-8


Typhoon Tip

Recommended Posts

They were consistent on this one being mainly nothing to right home about. Euro and it's ensembles are mortal this year and have been badly wrong several times.

 

The euro got schooled on this event as well, Its still very good, Just not infallible like it once was

One thing is for sure...it's a very different animal from that mega torch. The system would have to do a hail mary pass of pulling mild temps up off the Atlantic for New England and it would be a lot briefer before the cold rushed right back in.

 

Hopefully climo will have some role and the lowest surface pressure takes the coastal plain route. The alternative would be way west into central/western NY like some Euro runs have showed. The middle route up the mountains through like DDH is very rare and doesn't usually verify.

Man I wonder if we are gonna dodge a bullet with this one?

Whatever the outcome, I'm trying to take some solace in the fact that it'll be brief. Would be nice if there was another snow threat to look forward to, especially with so many talking about a mid-month thaw beyond next week's cold.

The background pattern is still one of larger than normal gradients, and thus anomalously fast flow.  That native progressive character to the flow, doesn't really lend too well to the Euro's operational solution.  I suppose it is possible that the Euro could succeed in producing "an anomaly within an anomaly" - complicated discourse, but sometimes that sort of thing happens.  But excluding that more rarefied outcome for a moment, the preferred solution really is the GFS operational together with it ensemble mean, in having the whole of the SPV evolution be somewhat E of the Euro camp; as well as any attendant sfc evolution through the period.

 

As is, the GFS offers little time for very much meaningful thaw. In fact, some question comes into play as to whether western NE might even have to deal with some freezing/frozen.  Yes the 12z came slightly E of the 00z with the sfc features, but that could also just be giga motions across successive runs.  If the overall notion of a more east solution is the correct path, eventually, even the typical meridional model types would begin to concede.  We'll see.

Yeah ...honestly, if it is preservation of snow on the ground that is motivating folks I do not believe the events slated to transpire from late Sunday through Tuesday next week will be all that bad for you.  Even the warmer guidance types only have about 9 hours of rapid translation through what really amounts to more of a hybrid warm sector as oppose to one of those full-on, odd-ball 60F DP transport, warm-CB events that occasionally occur in mid winter.  That happened in 1995-1996s awesome season to temporarily put an end to the enormous snow pack -- this isn't one of those types of gales, not even close...

 

Then, there is also still some chance the whole structure will edge east and thread needles, as it is said...  Obviously the old adage that past performance does not necessarily apply can be incorporated in this, but still... the Euro has been unstable in this background progressive flow.

The 00z GGEM was an icestorm..I wasn't talking about 12z..and how many lows have you seen over Watertown NY in your life?

The Saint Lawrence Valley track is an almost climo favored spot with the mean trough so far west.

Maybe someone else can chime in but ART isn't all that uncommon in our torch/cutters. Much more likely than like over the Adirondacks or Greens. It's usually ART or BTV and then east of there it's more like VSF.
