ORH_wxman Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 EPS have much better ridging out west going forward than the 00z run. We're prob going to see these oscillations...both showed a "Good" pattern, but the degrees of "goodness" matter sometimes if we're trying to get blockbuster snows. We like a more amplified ridge for a larger ticket event....KU types....the 00z flatter ridge would still be ok, but you'd expect less zonked systems and less phasing when the flow is not as amplified.

I think if anything the Pacific should have gotten better from a phase 8 present and the fact that it didn't improve .... that markedly, is a flag of less than mostly. That's all - The problem is it zoomed passed phase eight pretty quick and that’s where I presume that it was a CCKW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also a mean....so there's room for interpretation here on how an individual threat may look in such a longwave pattern Thanks for posting this ... You know, I really wish that magenta vortex over/N James bay was over Japan/Kamchatka ...and that blue-ness over there was over James Bay. That would be plenty cold that way. We don't need to carve our the Challenger Deep trench in the atmosphere ... and the balance geostrophic medium is thus not hugely sloped from the subtropical America to cP regions... But your right... the very best solutions for (I think) the type of storms folks want in here is more sluggish down S of 40th parallel, with a steeper thermodynamic gradient in the ambient 850... Through a nuke impulse through that? BOOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Agree on the Patriots... I realize I'm contributing to a derailment wreck ... but, relying on intangibles to beat the Chargers (even) is heh... good luck. Because the Pats are not mathematically beating that team the day after tomorrow... I tell you what... of the teams remaining,... should the Chargers win I'm backing them... Of all of them, they have been the less offensive over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pacific, mostly due to the MJO, has acted a bit more nina like. We have had forcing near 135E, 850 MB easterlies, all which really go against Nino. Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel and have heard that it should change later this month into February. My largest regret is not going 1969 as the main analog instead of 1978. I balked at how RNA that year was...in the end we will see a compromise imo. I still think the 1969 idea with more PNA and less NAO will work out.

MJOatleast7 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Anyone catch that 936 (ouch!) low in the C Pac yesterday (that went into the Aleutians). Something that powerful's gotta have an impact downstream, any guesses what? (Reminds me of the 926 or thereabouts - lowest pressure ever in the Bering Sea - in 2014 and you know what happened after). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no question to me anyways that it influenced the pattern. You had 850 mbar easterlies convergence in Indonesia, divergence aloft over Indonesia, lots of convection there, and enhanced pacific jet. This worked constructively, , with the big low we had in Alaska. Now as we hEad Deeper into the season, wave lengths change, a much weaker MJ O wave, and the effects should not nearly be anything close to what we had in December.This also looks to move east and hopefully be more constructive with Nino. Just a quick thought that I've had pertaining to the above bolded comments. I haven't had a lot of time to participate on the boards this season thus far, however I have been reading quite a bit. It was discussed several years ago, I believe in an ENSO thread. That the actual sst's and not the anomalies are what we should be looking at for a clearer picture. I haven't seen that discussed this year, but I have to think that it's played at least some role in what you've mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
