Stay on the shitty winter course, fade that one as well. 

One thing is certain, we are not getting close to our average this year...I still think we luck out with 1 or 2 wintry systems down this way, it's not like there isn't any cold air around or a lack of precip.

Today will be 50-55 with some sun which will feel great....

Yup... heavy fade. These “events” this week were always a non starter down here... probably just moving that line north now. Good thing we had that rogue event the first few days of December otherwise we’d be looking at all time rat status

I noticed whenever we need a trend for a storm to come back to us from sea we don’t get it, it usually shunts even further out to sea, but when we have a storm that’s too inland it never goes to benchmark track. Is there any studies down on this? Or maybe it’s just our luck?

A storm can miss by 100mi and whiff ots but we can warm sector in a cutter with a thousand mile margin for error.

Getting one little 3-4” storm in 60 days in the heart of winter is a rat for me. We’ll need a major comeback begin to take shape very soon.

Negative confirmation bias. Everyone remembers the many ways a storm can fail, but we easily forget the ones that trend in our favor.

This is ...and I’m not being “negative “ lol a cutter pattern . Ya some storms will meet the “press” but the long wave pattern FAVORS storms cutting . 

Need some luck , and luck is not on a hot streak

ill take just one more head fake today to Cold this upcoming week to get me happily thru the day , then inevitably we can torch on modeling haha. I am at the bargaining stage.

Feel like it will be tough to avoid a milder solution. That's a deep trough in the Midwest. I know you have meso low potential and what not, but when I see the 500 look...that would support mild air aloft at the very least. 

Yeah I'm a little spooked by the overnight runs my self. 

I could see the whole scale baroclinic axis up and bump NW at say 48 or 60 hours lead, ...leaving chicken counters holding empty shells, going, 'Whaaa' 

Problem is ... it's happened on more than a single occasion this season. There's been failures to relay colder solutions in general, into short range from the mid ranges. Something about this particular year's 'emergence' phenomenon ( if you will..); it has been persistently against colder snowier icer winter going across that ~ temporal boundary; it seems to be happening most frequently at around that time range ...somewhere between 48 and 72 hours.  

This is a candidate for that imho.  Not saying it will..  I do still believe that the fast nature of the flow should stretch things, and that stretching should actually ease off the 500 mb observations you are making - which are clad btw, but I think there is correct-ability toward flatter, which actually helps in this scenario as we've been discussing. So, we inched toward a colder look for several cycles recently, and that fits. But the 00z - imho - actually ticked back NW slightly ... almost just by a less coherent panache of the whole thing, and that's a direct homage to season tendency discussed above like it's bursting with desire to bend over this social media patronage for another sore-butting... and got so anxious it exposed its inevitable intent to do so.

Mmm... I'm still too scarred by the former sort of "synergistic" tendency to f-up a winter solutions to let that 'hint' just go unrecognized myself. So we'll see.

Maybe we see some less amped, weaker solutions at 12z but getting to where we need to see that on multiple globals. 

There's a 'needle thread' aspect to this ordeal..  It's got narrow margins for error whenever a system is sort of pulled out and biased in the length coordinate.  

Think of it ( metaphorical ) as meridian flows like circle systems, and progressive pancake rifle bullet flows like lines.  

EDIT: I guess the last several post should have been/move to the event's thread ?

With below heights in the SW and above heights in the SE...I’m exactly pumped for the start of Feb either. We’ll need luck to produce. 

This season is the type that we get a couple runs of a decent solution...but it just can't hold.  Every single system has done this to us this year.  Unfortunately there are seasons where this happens,we've seen them before-(especially in the 80's, but there have been a few others too).  I don't believe it's going to improve much...the signs are there and have been there for a while now.  

But on the other side of the coin it's SNE too, and you'd think we'd get One "Warning Event" in there during Astronomical Winter...even Most Ratters have one-2012 did in Jan.  So I do think we will get one, but that could be it.   And if we don't get one, it could be an All Time RAT.  

 

Heading up North very soon for some fun in the snow....having winter hobbies definitely lessens the sting a lot when we don't get any snow at home.

Big change on the NAM from 18z.  Colder look.

What a difference between the Nam and the IKON again at 0z.  Wth is going on?

Two crappy models trying to figure out the timing and magnitude of the ejecting energy. The good models are having a hard enough time with it...

24 hrs from now if the Nam is showing a massive hit, the detractors will be humping it, lol.

Would you like to comment on the torched 12z nam now?
