Baroclinic Zone Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Once the northern stream become active, we see models tend to show suppressed solution,s underestimating the southern stream energy. As storm threats materialize and come more into focus, we typically see bumps N in modeling. This weekends storm is DOA. with the lobe screwing the pooch. Next week is still viable from my perspective. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like when mother nature takes a huge diarrhea dump and gets it out of her system, we go into a very constipated period. Can someone send her some ex-lax? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 If we get the pac to help as projected, we could run a little snow train. There’s no shortage of shortwaves out there, that’s for sure. They may not all be blockbusters but some 3-6” type clippers and coastal re-developers would suffice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The early January curse or period of boredom is a real thing. After Jan 15 or 20th it gets a lot better. I don’t know why but it’s been that way for so many years.

CoastalWx Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 There was actually a dryslot in SE areas briefly with sun dimly visible. But it pounded before and then again after. Definitely a cstl front and CJ aspect in that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
