bluewave Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 4-8" of rain expected here with locally 8-12" according to the NWS. We're also under a slight risk for severe currently. This would be Yanksfan's dream storm. Flash Flood Alley might live up to its name here in central TX late tomorrow and Monday. TX/OK-NYC Metro rainfall dipole FTW. Been the same pattern over the past year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 TX/OK-NYC Metro rainfall dipole FTW. Been the same pattern over the past year. 12mPDeptUS.png El Nino certainly helped tip the scales back to floods down here. Also, it's been blocky patterns like these which set the same places up to get drenched for days. Just starting to get heavy showers where I am now-it's expected to get much worse later today and then again late tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncat Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Inverse of the 2011 pattern with TX drought and floods here. AnnDec11PDeptUS.png An amazing 73.50" of precip here in 2011, including 21.50" in August and over 25" during the 30 day period from around 8/6 thru 9/6.

Just starting to get heavy showers where I am now-it's expected to get much worse later today and then again late tomorrow. 500 mb patterns getting stuck in place for extended periods of time have been one of the prime features of the 2000's. An amazing 73.50" of precip here in 2011, including 21.50" in August and over 25" during the 30 day period from around 8/6 thru 9/6. The greatest deluge that I ever experienced was 8/14/11 when Long Beach got over 10 inches of rain in a short time. It was the first time that the flooding was so bad from rainfall that it was hard to get off the barrier island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part about whether it's natural or there are man made influences is however. Really since 1997 on, we have seen some very extreme events be it heat, cold, enso's, sea ice, snowcover, storms and oceanic decadal changes...

WaPo Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Here's a video I took during the Red Bulls game in Denver last night. The snow was pushing at that point. By the end of the game, I'd estimate there was about 2 inches on the field, and about 7 inches on the sidelines where the field was left unshoveled.

Yeah, these stalled atmospheric waves have been a significant part of our 2000's weather patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman19 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 All the other guidance and ensembles are showing the same thing so we are good to go for a pesky backdoor set up when people will be hoping for more spring. The GFS is also coming around to the set up now. gfsNE_sfc_temp_165.gif After the November - early April blowtorch, you knew this was going to happen...

nzucker Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 It might be nice during the day, bit the 12z GFS shows more frost/freeze potential in the suburbs this weekend. 850s are -5C with a big high overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at 10 nights 32F or below for April (same as March now). I'm interested to see how many nights I can get <32F. I had 5 consecutive nights of frost/freeze this week.

I had 5 consecutive nights of frost/freeze this week. I think 32° or below is going to be tough from here on out. From Tuesday night to Saturday night I had all 38° or below temps, with two Freeze warnings and two Frost advisories (Friday night didn't have any advisories, but it was still 37°).
