Winter Model Addiction Thread


Deck Pic

Recommended Posts

This is a work in progress..feel free to add and I will edit..times are approximate...if you have sources that are much faster, let us know..no model should be excluded other than tropical..part of being a model addict is looking at every single model run possible...

Hi Res NAM - 10 minutes after NAM

JMA??

Navgem?

NAEFS?

The brazilian is a long range model, no?...I think the Koreans have a model too, the KMA?

 

 I don't know any details about it. I was mainly being silly. It definitely has a long range component. I know because JB never seems to fail to tweet the meteogram for a major U.S. city whenever it shows snow several months in advance.

 

Yeah, KMA. You usually have to turn your screen upside down to easily read the US portion. ;)

and remember when the Euro only came out once a day......lotta this ------> :weep:

It's weird but harmless affliction. And it keeps getting worse as tech gets better. I had every intention of cancelling my Wxbell this summer...but nooo...I started tracking lr summer patterns. We're a weird bunch here but we all share the affliction so it feels "normal". It's like a support group for people who are addicted to something that at the very worst causes lack of sleep. Thank god my wife thinks it's fun.

Just looking at Matt's list makes me laugh at the madness we all share. WTF is wrong with us?

 Related to this, I really wish standard time were all year round. Sigh. Now, I do enjoy the extra daylight in the evening from DST since I like to walk then. However, I'd gladly sacrifice my evening walking opportunities just to be able to see the models one hour early all year! Let's face it. Weather models are king for the life of a wx hobbyist.

 

Unless there were a way for me to just go by GMT all of the time and ignore the silly time changes....

Life would be so much easier if they would invent an op model that nails a 10 day forecast. But if that happened we would just shift our focus to d10-20 model spray so...

 

 Actually, if there were a model that were to somehow be perfect way into the future in predicting wx, indices, or whatever, I think following wx could actually become pretty boring for me. One of the things that makes it so interesting for me is its unpredictability. Trying to make my own predictions and seeing how they verify is often a lot of fun. Example: how will ENSO/PDO/NAO be this winter? Look at all of the discussions this generates.

Luckily, that's physically impossible because you can never know the exact location of any molecule/parcel/etc while it's in motion...so we'll always be off, and we'll always deal with model chaos. Quantum Mechanics ftw.

If we're able to develop quantum-based computation systems, we'll probably be able to forecast a few months in advance with reasonable accuracy, though.

You see, there's where you're wrong. The model I'm talking about will place the molecules exactly where it wants. And move them where it wants. And some 15 year old at Rockville HS will hack it for snow days. Luckily, I live around the corner from there so I will get buried while DC gets rain.

Haha. Or accidentally recreate the infamous MoCo snow hole of 2011-2013.

I'm pretty sure no model will solve the DC enigma.

I'm not sure that even the exponential increase in computing capacity with a quantum system could completely account for chaos. The sensors used to insert data into the model would get better, and the system could handle greater amounts of data, but I think that given chaos and the limitations of the human factor that accurate modeling would still be limited to within days to weeks.
