On a serious note... have you looked at the 7 day mean qpf anom for week 3? That + the h5 panel = epic Too bad we’ve been burned by the weeklies all winter. But, if we can get a KU pattern... maybe there is hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 This might not look like much but it’s as strong a signal for a coastal storm as you will ever see at that range. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree that this is unusual. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s very rare to see a snow mean on the climo heavy weeklies past week 2 target the mid Atlantic over places north. If you ignore the snow in the high elevations to the north that plot clearly targets VA over places to the north. Strong storm under the blocking look. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be long dead before weather models can consistently nail anything beyond 2 weeks. I mostly track week 3 to see if the same pattern comes into focus with the global ensembles. Which hasn't really happened this year. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Taking a closer look on the week 3 qpf shows another good sign. AN anoms in SoCal and southwest indicates the potential for a classic active southern stream/storm track. Maybe the MA gets a private hecs parade while suppression and depression sets up on Wxwatcher's house.... nah, I'm just kiddin. I hope wxwatcher gets destroyed as long as my yard gets twice as much. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Damn, glancing at 33andrain and did you see the GEM ensembles I heard from the poster ( if he is correct ) they normally dont go cold crazy like this. Something is seriously UP near this date.

Is this a joke? No...that is a 5 day period not 10 or 15. A 2” mean is significant at that range for that amount of time and the way it’s cenyered over VA like that is another signal. It’s rare to see that past week 2 of the weeklies ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
