Euro op was a very good run imo Really encouraging run today and it’d argue we flip the switch from shutout to trackable. Hopefully EPS continues the trend...we’ll know soon.

Bob Chill Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 GEFS looking even better with agreement on the TPV making a trip south. Some nice gradient patterns in the mix here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need that SE ridge to maintain a little flex and not get completely crushed then yes this has all the markings of an epic gradient or sw flow event pattern setting up.

My brother just left for Cuba very early this morning. It would be hilarious if he ended up seeing snow there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me a little of Jan/Feb 2014. More importantly... the pac jet is cut off by d8-9. D10 has split flow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frd Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 @poolz1 signs are growing regarding more impact in the long term from the ongoing SSWE little recovery and additional warming coming into view, not certain, but possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that, I mean, what feature over the intermountain West are the 200 HPA winds flowing around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not Bob, but thats a reflection of NJ and STJ meeting in the midwest and one supplies cold...other supplies moisture. I'll let you figure out which :).

The upper level ridge building along the northern Rockies/west coast of Canada and the closed ULL off the coast of San Diego are spitting the flow.

poolz1 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 @frd I saw that post by Simon Lee. Thats the best look by the gfs for downward propagation yet (I think?). Reversal all the way down.... Going to be some wild looks but I really think the meat and potatoes will be felt early Feb onward. Not saying Jan cant get some excitement going but we should hit a pretty anomalous pattern once the strat effects are full absorbed into the pattern. It will be interesting to watch this all unfold during prime climo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think the EPS will show much improvement today, because I am hearing after the 15 th it goes back to zonal, but Bob can address that. Not sure whether that statement is accurate.

Not sure whether that statement is accurate. It's certainly not much better through 318. Almost completely opposite of the GEFS. +EPO, +NAO, -PNA.

Every time it looks like the ridging wants to build in AK, it just gets beaten down. Quite the relentless PAC on the EPS. The Euro OP blinked first...maybe EPS will be next (at 00z?)

Location specifics also hard to pin point , but some models long range seem to create the cold air source near Hudson Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
