It basically does that on this run.

 

 

Regardless...a lot of jiuce will be coming out of the southern states.

It seems as if the southern jet is finally becoming active. Is that because of the MJO leading to more forcing in the subtropical jet, or just because the ridge is moving westward in AK/Pacific Northwest to allow for more Pacific moisture across the CONUS? Or maybe these are one and the same phenomenon...

Not your classic one with troughing in the west and big ridging pushing up over the East coast.

 

Anyways, way out there..just stating the parade is about to begin. Just not sure what kind of parade it will be...lol.

Yea.

Hey, its better than the dry pattern that we've had.

 

I'll take my chances.

This means very little, but the Canadian ensembles make sense to me regarding later next week. Primary running up the OV with secondary over SNE. I could buy that this far out.

I telling Jeff this morning...it strikes me as a classic '07-'08 type of event, so I would agree with that assessment.

 

String some 2-5"ers together, and it adds up....especially if we maintain some semblance of cold.

As I have mentioned before, my memory of specific events is rather poor. Any specific ones I could look at?

I don't think this one will be as prolific as most from Dec 2007....there were several from Jan-Feb 2008 that would fit the bill.

There was one robust one around Feb 20, but the rest were your standard 2-5''ers n of the pike...

Will could prob provide specific dates.

Basically and event from Jan-Feb 2008, aside from the one in latter Feb that was heavier...I got jp with like 10".

The pattern gradually shifted northward as that season wore on....Dec nailed sne n of the pike, then it shifted n with one that was supposed to hit sne hard, but neded up being mainly rain....nne kept getting pounded, and the rest is history.

We just had that one in latter Feb that came back s and nailed sne....other than that, the season tailed off for sne post Dec.

Thanks, Ray... looking at old data now

Looking back, There was one 14" event on 1/8 that year up here, But quite a few modest ones in the 5-9" range that winter which seems to be more of the typical SWFE sized events

As for getting back to real metoeorlogy...here is how I envision the next 10 days or so going:

Jan 28-Jan 31: Below avg temps...dry except the scraper potentially for the Cape and far SE zones.

Feb 1: Sneaky torch with the weak low passing to our NW. I wouldn't be shocked if it started as some sleet or snow north of the pike or something before going to rain. Doesn't look all that juicey.

Feb 2: Transition back to colder temps..but it could be an "in-between" day

Feb 3-6: Multiple storm threats. Big CAD look. Could be all snow or it could be snow to a messy icy mixed bag of sleet/ZR and rain for SE coastal areas...since CAD looks strong, it would probably not be quick transitional ice, but rather prolonged if the storm tried to track further NW. It is unclear whether we get one major threat in this period or perhaps another smaller one preceding the larger one ala the Euro and ensmebles.

 

as someone who logs on infrequently and tries to get a quick read, god bless you for this,i am done reading
