JoMo Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Both the GFS/Euro and even the GEM have a big storm system around the 28th or 29th. This looks like a severe weather producer for our area with a big snowstorm on the backside across Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdgwx Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 GEPS, EPS, and to a lesser extent the GEFS ensembles are all showing a troughy signal around that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 There's still possible failures. If the individual storm systems track to the NW of our area due to -PNA. The Euro has been bad about wanting to stuff the trough in the SW and keep it there with no systems kicking out, but that's a Euro bias. Just have to wait and see, but it looks more active than what we've been experiencing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get -PNA every time there's a big system this year, I might as well start stocking up for an ice storm right now. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUWX Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 It seems that systems have been getting drier the closer they get in the forecast. Tuesday starting to look like it may not even rain here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 GFS is so fun to watch when there's a lot of systems being thrown at it. Cold look... Chilly... Followed by another -EPO burst: Real chilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerakoter1984 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 0z euro ensembles as well as the control are really beginning to increase snow chances in the 10-15 day period over the area. GFS ens are on board with some snowfall as well. It's a long way away but it has grown with each run with this being the first time that the control has shown such an outcome. The Euro trend of slowly moving further south and east each run is a known bias it has so this makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Euro weeklies look good through Mid-Dec and then things kind of run askew. I'd like to knock 1 snowstorm out by mid-Dec just to be safe, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo762 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Pretty evident that there will be a large storm system over the plains sometime in the 11/29 to 12/5 time frame... Biggest questions are how much cold air wraps around the system, and how deep the cold air is, as well as how far south the system ends up being. Looks like a solid shot at a nice snowstorm somewhere across the plains nonetheless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NwWhiteOut Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 It's nice to see this poppin up already for sure! I am for surely not going to get my hopes up though lol, last year we all got burnt bad!

raindancewx Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I'm starting to think 1978-79 is going to be a strong analog at times this winter. It isn't a good match for the Atlantic (it's much warmer now), but it's decent for ENSO. There were borderline La Nina conditions in Aug-Oct, and Sept-Nov that year, but the ocean warmed to neutral in the winter that year - that's something I expect to happen this winter too. 1978 also followed two El Nino winters, which is pretty rare. The PDO in 1978 looks sort of like a mirror image of right now, but it's not super negative either. It's my strongest match if you compare observed highs in Albuquerque from June-Oct (likely Nov too) against all years back to 1931, it's off by ~8F in error in like six months (worst matches are off by almost ~40F). Precip in November has also been almost dead on so far to 1978. 1963 & 2014 are decent matches too. Year June July August Sept Oct Nov 2016 93.3 95.6 85.8 83.2 75.9 59.9 1978 91.9 96.8 89.9 83.2 75.3 59.3 The numbers are observed highs in the two years by month. November 2016 is estimated. I'm a little freaked out, given that 1978-1979 is an all time legendary winter for cold after a warm Fall....and February 1964 & 2015 were very cold in the East & MW too. Maybe with the PDO phase working with the -AO in a different way than in 1978, the intense cold we saw stays in Asia, but it's definitely got my attention nonetheless.

Chinook Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 The 0z GFS has a deep low pressure near the MO/AR border next Monday. I wonder if there is a low chance of a tornado outbreak on that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a solid shot at a nice snowstorm somewhere across the plains nonetheless! Yeah, it looks like quite a parade of systems that are possible. The GFS/EURO aren't going to be able to sort all this out until each system gets closer. The track and strength of each system will depend on the next system upstream and the spacing between each system. The airmass won't be overly cold compared to normal until more -EPO ridging develops or the system barrage slows down. Fun to watch tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 GEFS and op GFS both trending north with the system early next week. Much too far north for any of us to get excited about snow. Might have a shot at some severe though, but moisture return isn't looking too good right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Pretty good track for SW MO and KS on that storm system next Tues on the 18z GFS, if only it was a bit colder! Major red flag of something changing towards the end of the run as the GFS went pretty extreme with the cold. None of the models have been any good in the long range though. If they keep showing the -EPO though, it can get cold really fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today was cooler but still warm for me, it is what it is I guess haha. On another note my aunt in central jersey said she didnt go over 30 the other day! Its been cold on the east coast, I wonder if they will have another crazy snowy winter. These crazy temp swings gotta go though it's getting old lol. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!!
