After the King comes back more suppressed and tics 200 miles further to the south tonight I'll start the thread for our little event on the 5th/6th! I think a lot of us learned our lesson from the last system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta make it somehow on the dreams you still believe Don't give it up, you got an empty cup...

I'd say that's a step in the right direction. It's not as fun posting near normal temps as it is posting torch temps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Might be the first time all winter where the EPS is colder then the GEFS over any 5 day period. GFS/GEFS really wants no part of a SE winter storm next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves, there were a couple of years recently where I remember someone noting a very negative NAO in April. Is that actually the case or am I imaging things. I have read that the biggest NAO impact on sensible weather is in winter. Did those big -NAO april's lead to cooler than normal temops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarmNose Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Off topic but do you Upstate guys remember this event. I remember it coming out of nowhere. It seems like the mets were calling for a NW flow event for the mountains but somehow convective bands with thundersnow made it southeast of the apps and we ended up with a 2-3" surprise midday snow here in the upstate. The thundersnow was awesome. It was like 40 degrees during the entire event..perfect example of rates overtaking 2m temps If anyone could explain why this event happened and unfolded the way it did I would appreciate the input. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although we all focus on conditions which lead to snow , I would love to learn more about how below normal temperatures occur in the SE regardless of snow. There seem to be multiple mechanisms for cold, with their own features. Some are short-lived but strong. Some are long-term but comparatively weak etc. I know that blocking has a lot to do with how transient or not it is. I know that magnitude is affected by source region and whether the shot is direct or glancing etc. I would love to hear an expert discourse on it.
