No. There are three things to watch. The EPS retros the s/w trough i mentioned yesterday to a position that tries to pop ridging out west, after hr 96. We also have some blocking from a piece of -NAO that extends WSW from Greenland into the davis straits. At the same time a piece of energy breaks up and tries to induce cyclogenesis off the East Coast next week. White it could go to crap, that’s an interesting look. Certainly catches my eye. Mid week probably lgt-mdt event at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was checking space wether earlier today, the radiation load at flight level is ridiculous right now. Airline personel are now limited to 20 hours in the air a week to limit exposure. The Northeast flights are also the most 'radiated' flights in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Okay ...so,.... mmyeah, okay. Some models trying to come back with a bit more amplitude and so forth for that critical Feb 27 through March 5 (or so...) time span. But, part of the problem with the guidance ...particularly at this range, is what I was just commiserating with Ray about, ...the flow is too fast for phasing. The GFS actually came about half way back... the GGEM has a tantalizing solution where southern stream deep west Atlantic low is just missed capture. I think Scott's advice is salient ... prooobably not a lot of determinism outside of 4 days in this particular set of circumstances.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise the discussion thread's 90% posts by the southern NEs whining about the crap winter down there. The amazing and wonderful 2015 winter has developed into a sense of entitlement. You know it's true .... that 'entitlement'? or maybe that's a little too strong of a word, but it does seem to lead a failure to recede back into one's climatology on some level or another. Prior to the demise of Eastern WX ... the mid-Atlantic folk were insufferable - and I'm not sure whether you, or anyone else reading this ... , were part of the 2002-2009 era, but particularly in the earlier years, they did not cordon off "sub-forums" by region. It was a very different culture. Not judging...just sayn'. Anyway, 1996 utterly RUINED them folks. I don't know what was worse, the storm, or... the unmitigated sense of feeling ripped off every year after the fact ...at least through 2006 before they came back to Earth and seemed like their tone and tenors were not as offended by mere normal PHL climate. 1996, in case folks are wondering, is the year of the great Megalopolis Blizzard... They've had other extra-ordinary winters in the MA since. 2010 leaps to mind... but, we haven't been interacting with those cats down that way nearly as intimately since American came on line, and is heavily sub-forum contained. So who knows what their expectations are like now... Course, in 15 years of weather social media shenanigans ... it's unlikely the same users are there anyway. Point is, I know what you mean and I agree. It seems years like 1996, 2010... 2015 ... 2008 ..whatever, we tend to spin up hopes pretty high and have to crash pretty hard when dr reality serves a dose of sanity.
