In '97 I was hitting golf balls at the driving range the day before in short sleeves and even overheard a couple dudes laughing about the 6-10" forecast for the next day not believing it....they were right to be skeptical, just in the wrong direction, haha. But as you said....perfectly timed bowling ball that went nuts. Oh yeah... great example. zactly It may be more of an intuitive feel but think like we're prone to this, this spring. More discretely though... there's a lot a wave mechanics that seems "strand-able" and with that cold lurking... warm all the time, alla 2012 doesn't seem like it's walking through the door. You know, we may get lucky with warmth? ... mm, and if we do ..few will really understand that's all that happened lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 9 minutes ago, ORH_wxman said: 3/12 on the Euro is a good example of well-timed....there's a brief cold sot behind the 3/10-11 system and another shortwave on its heels runs into that cold....I doubt it stays that way on guidance, but there is nothing inherently wrong with the solution...it's just that it's kind of a tedious setup so it's likely to mess up somewhere. This is actually a good example where EPS (outside of looking at individual members) could be rather mis-leading. The window is so small that when looking at EPS for that period that signal is extremely muted but when you look at the individual members Tip posted you can actually see the signal much more clearly. That may be our final shot at anything...I think after that cold shot is when we really warm up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torch Tiger Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 gorgeous Sun/Mon still on track. Take The ridge axis builds eastward into the Great Lakes down to the Southeastern US on Sunday. The surface high builds eastward into the Carolinas and eventually offshore, but this will continue relaxing the pressure gradient. It still may be a bit breezy as there is still roughly 15-20 kts of wind to tap into the mixed layer, but much lighter in comparison to Saturday. Temperatures will rebound as flow aloft shifts to a westerly direction, which advects warmer air in. Expect 0 to +5 degree Celsius 850 hPa air to advect in. Highs rebound into the mid 40s and low 50s across the region. Will see southwesterly warm air advection into Monday where +5 to +8 degree Celsius 850 hPa air moves in. This will continue to upward trend in temperatures. Highs will generally be in the 50s, but expect several spots to see readings in the lower 60s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 And that 1997 is in my top three coveted fav' events of all time. Depending on my mood, that order mixes up between: Feb 1978 (Michigan - different storm); Apr 1997; Dec 1992 ... I remember Harvey Leonard on his 6 pm mid previous week, "...Should this deep feature manage to pass under Long Island..." stressing the risk in having that do so.. He was talking about the ( then ) MRF synoptic evolution of a deepening 500 mb closed surface. So, Saturday morning I get my usual large french vanilla with cream and sugar and Advil and head on up to the Weather Lab to see where we stood; seeing as that was being side-ways mentioned in AFDs and the Euro was suggestive too. I saw, I wanna say, Drag ( I think, Sorry Walt) mentioned the MRF ensemble members were bulging west toward the New England Coast, indicating plausible correction vectoring toward more concern...etc.. So it was smoldering in the met community. Imagine my heart ...as I knock back the Advil into a hang-over in front of a yummy first dram off my coffee, and all of it almost comes out my nose when Harvey's vision of management was outright modeled in full fury leaped of the primitive ( by today's standard) web interface. It was 59 F at the time. It ended up maxing 63 F, that day, two days before cat-paws warned in... After getting my weather johnson all lubed up and ready to go, I left and walked across the campus to Fox Tower for brunch. The sky was hazy blue, and the fair weather CU was even elevated ... as though even the anomalously warm boundary layer was as clueless as the students lavishing in it. I can recall the t-shirt and cargo shorts vibe. It was a common garb of choice along my walk, as frisbies sailed over 20 year-old flawless designs taking advantage of the sun upon blankets festooning the commons out side of the dorm halls. Sculpted out of God's clay, indescribable forms - trying to be civil about it was almost like when I worked radar at Weather Service Corp, and witness the zygote blip of the 1999 May Oklahoma City F5 producing cell; just knowing that someone, somewhere, over that sucker's ensuing 50 miles were utterly oblivious to their destiny. That's always a weird head space .. you just keep it to your self. And that tepidly warm utopia was just the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your winter lasted like 2 days and the Mets season will be about 1-2 days. They'll be a GB after losing opening day and it will just be downhill from there. But it's time to embrace spring man...love it, enjoy it.

But they actually have a very solid, balanced team this year. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
