CAPE Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 The medium and LR threads were merged. I have little interest in the events this week, because I find rain to be uninteresting in winter. I prefer to focus on 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I will keep an eye on the late week deal, because it is far enough out and colder air will be coming east on the backside. Maybe a trailing wave possibility. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week looks meh for most of us though outside of some freezing rain chances. Looked more promising a week or so ago. The NW crew should be more interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakkelWx Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 After about the 18th, which the models show an apps runner/cutter with temps in the 60s, the GEFS shows sustained upper 40s/low 50s highs till the end of the run. I'll take that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVclimo Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Checked the thread this morning and see TSTMs being discussed. Then looked at 00Z Euro and see a half-inch of FZRA here on Tuesday and a 6” snowfall on Thursday. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris21 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 The 00z UKMET went with the euro progression... mostly snow and sleet for the thursday storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Only thing I see that’s mildly a good setup is the wave around the 22-23. Btw @Wentzadelphia Tuesday is almost a full cutter on the gfs now and Thursday keeps trending warmer also. So why am I rooting for Tuesday to wash away all my snow again?

We need other things to mitigate it. It’s not magically going away. Last nights ensembles look to bring back a -NAO by the last week of February. Other teleconnections don't look great but by that time of the year a-NAO is the most important and override the other indices. Maybe some hints of a -EPO in about 12 days. Maybe we get another round of decent looks. With shortening wavelengths we could be in business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTy Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Raining here and it's starting to freeze in my camellia leaves. Gonna be ugly if it picks up and keeps at it for the rest of the day. Oops wrong thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 3 hours ago, CAPE said: You can mostly thank the EPAC for the cold dump out west. Nina says hiii. Right now there is an Aleutian low, trough east of Hawaii, and a ridge in AK. The pac does not look like a Nina config to me. I think the block retrograding too far was the biggest problem. Pulled the TPV west and opened the door for a ridge in the SE. The pac isn’t great but it’s not a dumpster fire it’s kinda meh. Had the Atlantic side not broken down we would be good.
