Winter 2014-2015 Pattern Discussion Thread III


BIG FROSTY

Recommended Posts

RAH discusses the potential system for early next week. I highly doubt we see any snow but they did miss-state that the GFS shows only a cold rain.   

 

THE FORECAST BEYOND THE WEEKEND CONTINUES TO LOOK INTERESTING AS A
ANOTHER SOUTHERN STREAM WAVE IS PROGGED TO MOVE ALONG THE STALLED
FRONTAL ZONE OVER THE SOUTHERN US....POTENTIALLY CLIPPING AT LEAST
THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA.  MEANWHILE...AN UPPER LOW SETTING UP
OVER THE NORTHEAST US WILL PROVIDE A STEADY STREAM OF CANADIAN AIR
FOR THE EASTERN US...WITH THE POLAR FRONT MOVING INTO OUR REGION BY
LATE SUNDAY.  THE GFS SUGGESTS MORE PHASING OF THE SOUTHERN STREAM
MOISTURE AND COLD AIR...WITH A COASTAL LOW AND A COLD RAIN

MONDAY...THOUGH THE LOW MAY BE RESULTING FROM CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK
ISSUES.  THE ECMWF LOOKS MORE REASONABLE WITH A MORE SUPPRESSED
TRACK.  LOOK FOR TEMPS WELL BELOW NORMAL EARLY NEXT WEEK AND A
POSSIBLE FREEZE/FROST BY TUESDAY.

 

****The freeze should be what we're more focused on...

Can't believe nobody posted this! Isohomey , and the boys barely mention the "S" word in the middle of winter!! Now we got two chances!! Tuesday am and Tuesday night!

I'm all in! Let's bring it home! Brick start the thread! Storm mode !

Aleeeeet! ALEET ! :)

 

Problem is, even if Tuesday is 5 to 10 degrees below normal as stated, that would be 50 to 55º.

Yeah, your right! They mention somewhere in the earlier part of it, that Thursday will be 20-25 below normal on the highs ! If that don't get it done , 5-10 below normal, definately won't ! I want a new NWS to do my forecast!?? Maybe FFC or CAE? I'm shopping around , lol!

Just had a chance to look at the 6z GFS. It still shows the potential but it would be borderline. I suppose it would be better if the system does cut off (as CR just said). We definitely can't lose anything here. -->For this time of year, a win would be snow falling from the sky. I wouldn't even dream about accumulations.

No snow on any of the afternoon models. This threat is slowly disappearing, if there ever was one.

 

The models always lose the storm at this point only to bring it back around D3.

Looks like the GFS has a suppressed system while the Canadian has a Miller B (LOL at the consistency between the modeling) that destroys SW VA.  The Euro is also suppressed.

 

I'm just following because I'm always desperate for a late-season snowfall, though the probability is almost assuredly <5%.

Agreed, wouldn't mind seeing some snow flakes again.  After the 80's on Mon/Tuesday I realized summer will be here soon enough and who knows when we will see snow again.

I've always hated spring. Allergies used to destroy me every spring. They aren't nearly as bad for me these days, but I still don't necessarily like the season. Fall is nice, though.

I got a chance of snow with a low of 40!!! lol :huh:   All though I have seen it snow at 40, I'm not looking for it in the morning................

 

TONIGHT...CLOUDY. LOWS AROUND 40. LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS.
.THURSDAY...RAIN LIKELY WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW IN THE MORNING...
THEN RAIN IN THE AFTERNOON. COOLER WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 40S.
LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS. CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION NEAR
100 PERCENT.
