AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I've been studying 500mb heights going back to 1948. These patterns of late have no past point of reference. Completely new. 1) The general high heights around the Northern Hemisphere 2) Massive +500mb blocks in Scandinavia and the Atlantic... never is there blocking on the W and E side of the north pole so close strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 This can be moved to the weather section if anyone wants to do it. I'll clarify that my research is based on 15-day periods, and this is a still frame of 1/2 of 1 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vice-Regent Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 The hadley cells are crushing the PV while the stratosphere is cooling. Crazy times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vice-Regent Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Eventually in situations like this the rubber band snaps and we enter a new climate mode. When that happens is anyone's guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Very high heights right now. I wonder if we'll ever see a red line circle in the arctic circle winter. check out 1-11-11 as a good analog (This can also be moved to weather) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 This block in Scandinavia in a few days is really impressive. Maybe a top-10 500mb anomaly since 1948. Looks organic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 I wonder if there is a measurement of 500mb anomaly for a hemisphere or the globe? I think today and tomorrow there are some records check out the >+120 in India and that part of the world and polar stuff. It's a 360 ridge with some short term fluctuations. and even so, all troughs are displaced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Maybe more appropriate for the weather section, but we'll do a +600dm ridge pretty easily, and top-10 all time Subtropical jet, 576 heights, east of Greenland. The record ones are usually north of Alaska and not so far south. I want to bring your attention to that we're breaking records, but by like 1 or 2 SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 By the way, the warming isn't so bad. the '50s had some similar patterns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
