clskinsfan Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 If we can get that strong west based -NAO to develop we will get some cold air into the area. But that appears to be a big if. We have basically had a neutral NAO for a month. And when it has dipped negative it has been east based and worthless for us. With a crappy PAC it might be one of the only things that can save us.

Scud Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The longest I have seen, and I am really old, is January 16th 1985. It turned cold and snowy. Was living in High Point NC at the time. Arctic outbreak gave us all time record low of -8F on or about the 21st. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it will here but it's been awful at range. The heights are still rising in the NW day 15 but it sucks waiting a week longer then the gfs to get things started. @psuhoffman, Wonder if the EPS is simply incorrect due to the continued robust SSWE / split , MJO interplay, etc. I am impling the event is taking on an even grander scale of cause and effect wi the MJO. Not sure whether @Isotherm can chime in. A few weeks ago the event was not certain, now it is happening and further warming is forecasted . What does this do? You have to think - casuse and effect. Like the dude from the Matrix reloaded ... Honestly those looking for the SSWE to be shown in the modeling world correctly, well frankly maybe it is still too early. Some models are sniffing it out but some are not. And yes, I would like the so called most accurate model by physics and machine learning to show the colder solution, in this case I am very puzzled. What a mess right now. Been like this for days so far. Wonder if the EPS simply turns on a dime and we get the so called pattern change we envision . or if this get pushed down the line to Feb .

I’m well aware of why it could be wrong but you’d expect to start seeing it look better...not get worse. We’ll see. U could also argue u would expect the gefs and geps to start looking worse.

Quite the relentless PAC on the EPS. The Euro OP blinked first...maybe EPS will be next (at 00z?) I'm going with that thought regarding the EPS - sometimes the Euro does that (lag from the op to the ens). Maybe because of the changes/transition going on?

The h5 look on the EPS should become noticeably more favorable over the next couple runs. Today's 12z run ends on Jan 17th. The advertised h5 look from today's run aligns quite well with the 17th from the most recent edition of the weeklies. I know for some the the progression seems painfully slowwww or non-existent, but it is in pretty good alignment with the look and the timing from the weeklies of a few days ago- the EPO ridge started to really take shape around the 18-19th, and the overall pattern became progressively more favorable from there.

Don't disagree with anything but its really hard to accept how atrocious the high latitudes look d15. The flip to a decent pattern has a long ways to go from the end of the EPS. If Jan is a shutout then this winter sucks no matter how good Feb is. Significant challenges to even having a chance at beating climo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
