Bob Chill Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Maybe the WAR rolls over sooner than we think. Just a moment in time but it's nice to look at. TPV is strong enough to bully through anything though. I just like the pretty colors over the Davis Strait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blocking is required to keep the east cold and storm track suppressed. Which brings me to an example...lol...control run is close to a hecs look. Cold mids coast to coast...potential 50/50 on the way in... heh. Just need the west based NAO to flex and this panel would be excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we do get the weeklies look afterall. I think first they ( EPS and the GEFS) sense the upcoming changes but as Earthlight alluded too they changes are washed out and smoothed over in the ensembles intially, but now they are all latching onto the positive changes in the Pac and the more favorable forcing as well and you are seeing those outcomes in the much improved EPS.

CAPE Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 EPS weeklies look solid. A bit too much WAR still with western ridge axis a tad too far west through about mid Feb, then h5 look gets very good beyond that. -AO/NAO is prominent throughout.

EPS is moving that way pretty quickly. GEFS is too- better western ridge axis location last couple runs towards D15, and has been pretty gung-ho with legit NA blocking.

Lol- yea, I think this is the real deal now. May not hit perfection because it's really hard to never have too much of something and too little of something else. I'm really digging where the eps is going. Broad continental trough with na blocking is one of the few patterns where you can get an long track mecs that drops snow on a really large piece of real estate. In the mean time, fast flow and northern stream activity seems like a lock in the mid range. Def no chance of a long track with that regime. Guidance is showing enough support for some snow before the hammer to keep us optimistic for now. If a real pattern seems imminent and we fail on the the pre arctic shot i really won't mind. My illegal skating pond nearby might have perfect ice conditions. 3 days of sub freezing conditions with single digit lows is all that's necessary for 3.5" of ice.

nj2va Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I find the weeklies’ snowfall maps useless but at 10”, it would put DC 25% over climo for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I was right about the -PNA during El Nino. 18z GFS ensembles now have it only developing as a loading pattern for -WPO, versus being a primary factor. I wonder if the +subsurface ENSO wave will continue stronger now that models have changed, having implications for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frd Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Posted 35 minutes ago Courtesy 33andrain Retrograding NAO block on the Euro weeklies, originating in the Kara Sea/Scandinavia and ending up in Canada. This fits perfectly with the progression of subseasonal tropical pacific forcing and in the wake of the SSW. It’s not just a fantasy, folks.

cbmclean Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 It's taking every bit of rationality I can muster up to keep from making pointless Debbie downer posts like "we know it's not going to happen".

frd Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Still waiting on the SOI to turn negative and it appears that the overnight Euro was not as robust about the cold later in the run. What implications this has on any storms to early to tell. Daily contribution to SOI calculation 4.43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frd Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 This should spark something if correct. A very robust signal there ( and only a few days away ) I believe the AO would react to going severely negative. If this were to occur I imagine a lag and this is pegged tp happen near Feb 1 st. ( and continue beyond this date ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
