Winter Speculation 17/18 -December Thread

Weeklies looked pretty decent after January.  Keep in mind that I generally only comment on the 500 patterns as it has a warm bias at range IMO.  There is actually some 2m cold showing...that means it is likely very cold during that time frame.  And I give the Weeklies credit...they sniffed out the current pattern.  They did try to end it too early.  I still have concerns that once the western trough is established that it won't budge as easily as modeled.  Looks like Feb 1-8 will be a transition week.  If the Euro is being too slow w the trough in the West, it will happen as the month of Jan rolls into Feb. If it is correct, could be later in that first week of Feb. If it is too quick, then mid Feb. I think the Feb 5-7 timeframe is legit.  So, how warm will the warm-up be from Jan 20-Feb5?  IMO, very warm, but that is certainly not set in stone as the operational global models have been balking at the warm-up.  The EPS is bullish and stubborn w the western trough.  The GEFS has it to some extent.  Yesterday's MJO update...GEFS vs Euro.  The GEFS goes into reasonably high amplitude of phase four....the Euro went into the COD.  Back to the Weeklies....once the pattern potentially rolls back cold, the ridge reestablishes out West.  It begins as an EPO and then transitions to a broad PNA ridge.  It "looked" like it might allow split flow if one takes the control into account.  Which BTW, the Weeklies' control was stone cold.  It went deeply negative w the NAO and was extreme in nature w winter for the East w very little thaw.  Understandably, the mean was stubborn w the western trough.  But the control places some doubt in my mind as it basically threw the MJO to the wind and just went w a pattern similar to this week.   Very warm followed by very cold...and seemingly stormy.  Overall, nice teleconnections look coming into focus for early to mid Feb. I will be honest, I am concerned about the warm-up lasting longer than modeled.  We have all seen cold modeled to return only to realize it was a red herring.  Now, verbatim, it is really tough not to like the look for February on the Weeklies at 500 and from a teleconnection standpoint.  Also, looks like the mean(especially the control) likes blocking up top including the unicorn of AN heights over the Davis Straits.

GFS took a big step towards the Euro in getting some Gulf connection then popping a storm, but it's still too late for us, really gives a good snow to North Carolina though. Looks like by next week that the eastern Tennessee Valley from Alabama to Knoxville to Tri-Cities into SE Kentucky may be the only part of the entire south that can realistically see a good snow event that hasn't had one this season provided, Middle Tn does pretty well with the comma head later this afternoon, if not, all them to the southern snow hole.

Euro East Tennessee favorable trend continues for Tuesday. As noted before some more moisture is forecast. PVA north does not worry my as much as usual; so cold that a warm nose is unlikely. Still need south PVA to dominate for quality snow.

Euro weeklies show new cold the beginning of Feb. I like it. CFS is warm too long, probably MJO issues. A warm period is likely as the MJO goes through warm phases, but it should quickly move along and/or crash. New research shared at AMS shows -QBO enhancing some MJO phases. Might explain some of the back and fourth, but La Nina also. At any rate I'll go more cold early Feb.

Finally, the Valley is just now entering our coldest climo. Best snow (any location) is usually after the normal temp chart inflection.

Yes, the Euro was back to a 1-4 inch event for a large portion of the area,  with embedded 4+ areas all the way from Little Rock  and south  across to Northern Miss. 1-3 across Northern Alabama and the Southern Valley/North Georgia. 2-4 across SE KY, Plateau and Central Valley of East Tn. 4+ across far Eastern areas as they benefit from the storm tracking up the Carolina coast.

So, this is kind of off topic but we know that it is going to snow, perhaps, next week but I keep hearing about a pattern flip but then I also see tweets about some type of warming and that it will have ramifications down the road. My question is, are we in a larger pattern of cold east for a week or so, then warm for a day or two then cold again? Sorry this is rambling!

Not rambling at all, looks like we may warm for a week or two as next weekend approaches. Could be longer as models tend to try to end patterns to quickly. Hopefully the cold returns in early February, as that is the top month for snow across the forum area.

I’m gearing myself up for disappointment from the Tuesday system. On paper it may work, but in reality clippers just don’t pan out in the southern valley. Too many topographical issues to overcome. 

Clippers typically don’t tap the gulf, that’s the difference if it pans out.

It's a hybrid, gets sw flow going and pumps moisture up from there.

Fingers crossed! Looking at GFS data we manage to squeeze out 0.05" qpf. Surface temps are around 28-30 so we could get a dusting, but I'm skeptical of much more.

The GFS is so far, trailing the Euro on the evolution of the system. If that continues I expect it to increase the moisture output at 00z tonight. The Euro gives Chattanooga .25 or so qpf it looks like.

QPFS looks about the same,orographic places will probably as always do better.Euro today for Cha

GFS might be right though,system dont look that strong.GFS  TONIGHT almost splits the QPFS IN HALF than the Euro.But the ratios still would be more than 10:1 at times.Looks like snow anyways,that's a start

Euro still 1-3 inches with a few places maybe getting to 4 with the system Tuesday. .2 to .4 falls as snow in the area. If we can get the good ratios Jax mentioned it'll be a decent event. 

You should do better than anyone,that isnt shown,these orographic lift places will always do better no matter what's being shown

My chickens are not going to be happy about this.  Not one bit, that is crazy cold.

I'm going to take Coach's advice and wrap some tarps around the coop and just swap water out a couple times a day.  I can't do another stint of chickens in the garage.  That cage got RIPE last week son...

So, this is kind of off topic but we know that it is going to snow, perhaps, next week but I keep hearing about a pattern flip but then I also see tweets about some type of warming and that it will have ramifications down the road. My question is, are we in a larger pattern of cold east for a week or so, then warm for a day or two then cold again? Sorry this is rambling!

Flip or not to flip...that is the question.  The trough should go into the West after the upcoming week with a BIG warmup here.  We broke a record high at TRI a few days ago...that kind of warm air mass.   Now, is that trough a flip or just a temporary change before reverting back to the trough in the East?  There are models that put the trough in the West and lock it in for several weeks...the JAMSTEC might be one of those as it is my understanding that it keeps us in the warm phases of the MJO.  The Weeklies step down to cold beginning the first week of Feb.  The 0z EPS locks the ridge out West during the 10-15 day time frame...but it should break down about a week after that if the past Weeklies were right.  The 0z GEPS is very warm.  The 6z GEFS is less bullish.  So, looks like a trough in the West gets established for a couple of weeks which will lead to very warm temps.  I still like the Jan 20 - Feb 5 time frame.  There is always a chance the models are incorrect, and the 6z GEFS shows exactly how to get cold when it should be warm.  But the EPS has been pretty solid this winter as have the Weeklies.  I think for the time frame that I mentioned above, +5 to +10 seems about right.  So is a 14-21 day warm spell a flip?  Probably not.  But if it locks in, it would be spring here.  I think that unlikely since the base state for winter has been cold so far...and since the Weeklies, which have been very good this winter, do show the trough at 500 returning.  Add in low solar and the -QBO, and high latitude blocking seems likely to continue.  Those ideas have served us well so far.  So, I think "thaw" is probably a good term with the NA pattern balaning out the pattern with cold and heat.
