WinterWolf Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 The cliffs??? In NYC?? In my town where I grew up, I lived near a mountain that had many craggy cliffs and shear rock faces...when it got hot and dry, the Copperheads would appear. Had to be careful and aware at those times when the heat would soar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 It's a pretty damn steep sounding ... Man, that was a cold look in the Euro, huh - it'll be interesting to see if that's legit, or if it's typical modeling slide back that often happens at this time of year in late mid ranges... Although, the -EPO in the GEFs ... together with apparent interlude of -AO may lend credence to .. not warm - put it that way. We'll see.. But should that evolve with -20 850's straddling the boarder, it's hard to imagine no snow some how some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Also ...fwiw, we there is an emerging low/moderate amplitude +MJO ... in constructive wave interference nonetheless (-WPO) ... which means, the NP wave spacing may favor an eventual amplitude in the +PNAP.

Just have to be vigil of the fact that in the spring ... faux signals can change pretty quickly. If that were January though - ..." That's just as telling as the facts regarding the tele's at that time I post that, yesterday. I think maybe you biased your focus on the other aspects of that, ...for whatever reason, then took note that it happens to polarize against the meme phenomenon that goes on in here - the synoptic flavor and emotional tie-in of the moment. I get it that some those points I made were opposing the smoldering fear that this winter's last winter storm opportunity was a (sad trumpet) bust. However, the issue isn't that I seek contrarian points to make; the issue is that I don't engage in that phenomenon. I would report that either way. Sometimes it jives with mold...sometimes it will not. Some of the material of those posts in this situation, seemed to set against said tenor. Having said that... on can see why big early April bombs that are book-ended by spring days happen ... historically. Presently, here are large masses of air at or less than -20 C in the critical sigma levels over much of Canada right through the 7th of next month. One cycle... the Euro is ominously cold, with more -EPO look and bringing the interface of that air mass right down to the boarder ...with some incursion of modified versions - albeit still plenty cold. Next cycle? Not so much. That antic played out between 12z and 00z from yesterday to last night. Either version, particularly at this time of year... makes for hugely different sensible impacts. When the sun shines now, even conditionally chilly air (say > 0 thru -12C), provided the wind is light, you get that "nook and cranny" faux spring warmth that is just as effective at giving spring enthusiasts their version of the ecstatic glow, as though the mixing depth was +10 C in full sun on a west-southwest wind. Under a shedding sun and provided the wind is indeed light ... NWS thermometers/sites may merely report 45 F, but down on the thoroughfares, ... parking lots and back decks the feel is more like 60. However, the environmental condition of < 0 C from 900 MB on up means that an hour of solid overcast and saturation flips the surface right back to late February. So, April 1 1997 was a fantastic version of that .. perhaps too good, because believe me, someone is reading this to mean that's what the author of this post thinks is happening. It's an exquisite example for the point at hand: 63 F was the high at UML nestled in the Merrimack Valley just two days prior 15" of blue glory at that location (obviously 30" fell down toward Framingham/metrowest where it was just as mild that same two days before hand). Three days after that it was 57 ...and the next week it was in the 70s. Anyway, the point I was making, these sort of spikes backward toward winter are conditionally prone to happening when there are necessary ingredients around at all ...which next week has plenty.

Typhoon Tip Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Speaking of which ... I have been watching the models for Tuesday and Wednesday this week for that 'nook and cranny' niceness ... The 00z Euro has a narrow surface ridge collocated right over New England. Yesterday's runs had it slightly west... two days ago, more where it was positioned in the 00z run last night ... So it's been subtly lacking discrete consistency. It makes a difference where, perhaps a big one, sensibly. I feel pretty confident in the general sysnoptic featuring of having that ridge - it's in most guidance. But, should it align slightly west, than we may be in the very outer fringes of that oceanic gyre's cyclostrophy and that means chilly offset NE flow (probably). Contrasting, if the ridge does collocate, then DVM will tend to offset that and also keep the local breeze circulation at "bay" - perhaps literally there. Temps in the mixing levels recover pretty smartly by Tuesday morning ...so, with light winds and post Equinox sun cooking away I could see that day being the first bona fide sensible spring-like day of the season. Not sure if Wednesday is cloud contaminated - if so...not much. But if it remains < say 50%, if anything it would be more so... Bit of a bust potential on machine guidance plausible on those two days. I've seen 60 F under 0 C at 850 mb in February before in perfect heating so... seeing MOS at 53 on Tuesday ...heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 "... Spring soon even if we do not have 70s" Interesting... if we want to use that logic, we could argue spring kicked in back in mid February ...and all these recent storms were, there were either wet nor easters and more typical spring blues... either way, none of which were atypical of spring climo in up in our neck of the woods. We just had a lot of them. But, there's probably some subjectivity to that ...tedious and time-wasting to get into so why bother. But just imagine this journey over the last five weeks if the NAO hadn't shown up to the party... We'd probably be a cycle of lawn mowing behind us... But in all reality, the fact that Tuesday and Wednesday probably make the mid to high 50s, with lots of sun to add to that charm on Tuesday, that's probably a foregone conclusion that we're doing spring.

I mentioned the 70s, just to illustrate that the weather may be pleasant despite not being very warm. Sure you can never rule out some sort of renegade bowling ball, but the pattern as a whole doesn’t seem all that wintry to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure you can never rule out some sort of renegade bowling ball, but the pattern as a whole doesn’t seem all that wintry to me. Hmm... Well, I guess nearing April ... 'seeming' wintry may take a subjective opinion, and then make is HUGELY subjective... But, from D7 through 11 or so in both the EPS and GEFS there is huge sprawling area of deep negative anomalies at 850 mb over much of Canada, with the much ballyhooed EPS version bleeding it south some... , which for a base-line canvas is a solid metric to go by. One may argue it stays safely tucked N of the border, but I wouldn't take that bet with -EPO and the MJO trying push through late 6/7 I mean, if people want it to be crystalline air and pristine snow that's going to be hard to come by - it's not DJF. However, in terms of successfully transitioning to spring, that's a troubled look. That said, I am also pointing out in equal measure as of late that means and individual runs are subjected to increased stochastic behavior due to usual transition season stuff, with trend break downs and so forth so... there's running caveats along with that complexion.
