I would take it as he knows what he is talking about. The NAM does come south. It’s struggling with precip field but that will change and cut back as Eric alludes to.

Seems fairly progressive and not that classic ML lows closing off and pivoting right under us? It's a little weird to imagine this intense almost horizontal band moving NE across the state.

Strange. I saw that too. One nice thing we have, are cold temps in the conveyor belt. It may not pound after the heavy heavies leave, but decent temps still for snow flake production despite losing deep lift in the DGZ. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalcottWx Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 What's the story with the discontinuation of blizzard watches/warnings? Just at OKX? NWS wide? I Googled quick and didn't find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it has to be right in some cases right for sure, it can be right, just folks here have seen it cave to other models up to 24hr before a storm, but has some friends like the RGEM.. so time will tell I guess.

Typhoon Tip Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 This has always been precarious… I mean that’s a foregone conclusion and built in. I’m curious what Chris ( Occeanwx. ) thinks… He mentioned this 0 z cycle as crucially losing sensitivity issues related with being fully on board for the full cycles and shedding the old signals out ...remember we only need to flip a degree or two polarword and everybody gets cashed in. A goodly bit of the storms morphology has always had the look of dependency on I ts own in situ mechanics as described and discussed at length yesterday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
