CoastalWx Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 The -NAO has weakened considerably over the last two EPS runs. Hopefully it comes back. At least the Pacific looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Pacific looks good. i wouldn't be shocked if it didn't happen at all.. this fledgling season is 0-1 on NAO progs so far... I've been mentioning it in my rants that the NAO is inherently a P.O.S. index for every reason actually ... right down the board.

So actually that combo works great for us. Should allow nice cold dump into US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 There was a negative nao last week. I don't understand this crap. It trended weaker with time but it still happened. I guess because it didn't produce November snow it wasn't real enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 LOL, oye. All I said was that it trended weaker. It could easily come back on future runs...just something to watch. I care, and will always care more about the Pacific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowHole413 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 When DEC 8th comes around I do think the blocking will trend weaker like it just did in its last episode. Which isn't bad if the pacific still looks good, we don't need a massive -NAO in NE to get snow. I would be fine running with a -EPO/+PNA and slightly neg NAO. Saying that, CPC still has quite the spread for the domain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Scott you used the word "Considerably" when describing how much weaker it got. That raises doubts for the NAO peeps. I happen to agree with Tip...that thing/domain is way over rated imo. If it's there fine, if not as long as the pacific is in our favor that's good enough for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanks45 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Living in Delaware for the 2009/2010 season, I was grateful for the the strong -NAO. Even though I am pretty close to NYC, I'm more concerned with too much of a -NAO otherwise it would be congrats Delaware again.... A nice -AO, +PNA, -EPO, and just enough blocking to slow things down a bit would be just fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Scooters Boss Global ensemble NWP models severely underpredicted the blocking high over Greenland as indicated by the negative trend in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) forecast trend product.

Typhoon Tip Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Ray ... it probably will ... if we want to cite past occurrences (always risky) ... in fairness the first episode took place, but ... in a sense the models double crossed us in that the presentation of it, and in fact it's actual physical exertion on the flow ...those parts of it is didn't really have much sensible impact on our weather. the nao was situated too far away and also ..weaker. but, this isn't new to science. the nao is intrinsically a problematic domain space in modeling/tele's and so forth so... every time we are staring down the barrel of a negative(positive) regime in these tools, there a a dicey caveat.

dryslot Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I'm trying to come up with a number on the first real snow threat of how many inches of snow we will get or the number of weenie tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I agree with Mike (assume this is him). We haven't reached validation, and per this link...the GFS has had a negative bias. Not saying that will continue...but lets see how it plays out. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/pna/nao_index_ensm.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Just now, LurkerBoy said: You had to know it would stir some thangs up. Good. It should not always shell ponies and dendrites in here. I don't think anything should change in terms of looking ahead. If anything, the NAO is probably more important for those in the Mid Atlantic.
