dendrite Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Yeah I don't want or need that cold. Let it spill and rot in the west and send me a modified version after the New Year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted December 21, 2021 Author Share Posted December 21, 2021 I feel like that parade of SWs must be getting grinded between the NAO ridge and the ridge down over Texas.....it must be aligned as such that there is just the right amount of distance to shear the pacific parade to shit at this longitude, and they can't begin to amplify again until approaching the Maritimes.

That’s not DFW but sort of reminded me with the temperatures. Just to see how that climo part of the world experiences Xmas. Air conditioning while opening packages must be a trip. Try it once and you'll never want to go back to being cold on the holidays again. Lighted boat parades, lobster trap "trees", mosquito bites. Watching them try to put lights on constantly flailing palm fronds was entertaining. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Talk about a roller coaster weather pattern moving through the first week of January. It's pretty ridiculous..on both extremes with the the degree of cold across the PAC NW and parts of the northern Plains and GFS getting mid 50's dews as far north as IN/IL with 60's into the TN Valley. These next few weeks will have it all...record warmth, record cold, blizzards, high end severe events...don't just buckle up around your waist, buckle your chest thing too.

None will produce more than flurries or dustings most likely. One anything changes that will cease....its not stable.

It’s enough to get the BZ going and actually getting a storm vs the Stein starved systems we see now. I’d rather ride the lightning and be on the edge of something juicy vs these systems we are seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope we don’t see the pna relax only to see the nao fade at the same time. It’s just seems the last few days the guidance has kicked the can with easing the pna. They have trended strong with the pna/southeast ridge and any changes still stuck at 300 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each of them just hit the wood chipper here. None will produce more than flurries or dustings most likely. Exactly what I saw this morning .

What exactly are you saying is moving east? The RNA trough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 At least (I guess) it seems apparent that if the PV does split one piece will end up displaced over southern Canada. The northern tier of the country is going to be a breeding ground for storms in that case...and given the southern stream looks to remain active you phase any rotating piece of energy with that southern stream and you're going to get some big coastal's (at least potential). But regardless of southern stream involvement or phasing...there are going to be plenty of chances within that northern stream. The Arctic airmass pretty much gets displaced with the Arctic with the Arctic being replaced by a modified combination of cT/mT air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly are you saying is moving east? The RNA trough? Yeah. Instead of being positively tilted and sucking out killer whales in Puget Sound, it should broaden a bit and move east. It will remain well west and force a SE ridge, but if you want low pressure and something with QPF, that’s what is needed. Hopefully weenies remain grounded and not expect epicosity.
