USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 While the ocean storm passes way to the southeast on all guidance at this moment, I guess I can be satisfied with one of the best ocean effect snow event parameters in place I have ever seen personally on models four to six days out! EURO, GFS both show an extremely long period of NNE to NE winds between ten and thirty knots with delta ts over 20C. This should provide a strong band of heavy snow on the Cape. GFS showed this strong signal on the 6z run, only to lose it the next 12z run. However, the winds and temps stayed the same! This is a highly volatile pattern and I would rather have the intense benchmark tracking nor'easter with a widespread three feet. However, if the OES is the best out of this situation I will still be happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What part of climate change would make October snowfall more likely to produce a poor winter? I'm open to the concept, but I haven't seen a good evidence-based argument yet.

It doesn't. Yeah this is part of my "evidence-based argument" that I have seen lacking. I've seen a few theories like "when we get a cold pattern in October, we often see regime shifts every 4-6 weeks which line up for a poor early winter"....well, some of these patterns weren't even that cold, more like cold shots in an otherwise normal/mild October (both 2020 and 2011 qualify). But even if that wasn't the case, 2020 just blew that argument to pieces with a good December pattern for snow including our largest region-wide snowstorm since 2018 or maybe even 2015. But you can test the regime change theory anyway....it would say that cold Octobers should correlate significantly to shitty winters. But they don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that Oct has a slight negative correlation to winter NAO, which is not applicable this season. But I just wonder if having a very anomalous winter pattern that early in the season primes the atmosphere to underachieve in during the winter. It does seem like the ends of the season are more favorable, and the middle of winter less favorable since climate change... maybe something due to HC, expasnion...IDK.

I understand Oct 2002, 1995, blah, blah....yiipee, boing, yatzi I have a hypothesis ... why these are taking place. Firsty, I don't believe the demonstrative recurrence of either autumn or spring substantive cold over eastern N/A is mere dicey ...I think it is rooted in large scaled changes to the climate. These are narrow opportunistic times spans, inside of which .. the gradient richening of the total circulation is enhancing patterns that can deliver cold, earlier and later.. But, during the winter proper months, said gradient gets so extreme that we end up with a lot more destructive vs constructive interference maelstroms ... This is blunting events from happening during those meatier winter hemispheres. As the atmosphere's passing back out of the that regime ...it passes back through a normal gradient as the wave lengths are shortening, and that offers a narrow window of cold insert ( May ...) but this is opposite passing the other direction in Autumns. I think the autumn and late cold snaps ,... are probably related to the same forcing, as it is heading in opposite directions. But that by virtue means that yes... October may not portend winter, but knowing why ... a fast ambient atmosphere/destruction of wave harmonics in lieu of conserving torque at very large R-wave structures - is just not something the hemisphere is going to achieve as a base-line state in October or November ... Or as proficiently going in the other direction... In a sense, you could flip this argument around and suggest that a shitty f'um late January somehow implies a "great" April - heh...if you like 40/38 drizzle with a synoptic glopper... Personally, I'd rather not burn fossil fuels and get back to Currier&Ives Januariers lol 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Miser Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I know that there is probably no true, direct correlation of how October snows impact the rest of the season, but when future offers of snow come for October please pass me by. It's psychological to me. Emphasis on me and PSYCHO. Thanks in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tossing shit against the wall. This is kind of a loaded question? When do you define "since climate change?" Because ORH had like 3 consecutive 40"+ Februarys from 2013-2015....also 2 Januarys of 45"+ (2011 and 2015). Did CC start in 2016? Or maybe it's just 5 years doesn't mean a whole lot. 11 out of 15 Jan/Feb combos from 1979 to 1993 failed to produce a single 20" month (meaning both January and February were below 20" in the same winter). Since 2000-2001, only 5 winters out of 20 have been able to match that same feat where both Jan/Feb each were below 20" in the same winter. We've had two in a row...this year would be 3. We've been spoiled rotten for a couple decades and now we're eating a little regression pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
