powderfreak Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 35 minutes ago, Typhoon Tip said: There's also room for perspective - Teeeechnically this is an anomalous air mass. So... it's not like we should be couching this and/or snow into any sense of "normalcy" for April 28. Thing is, 2000+ elevations ... will have a climo that is cut out from the valley floors but you know that...blah blah notwithstanding. In fact, it's 44 in what has evolved into a partly to mostly sunny splashed mid day down here, where it is climate to be 65... Even if we make 50, talking -15 during the existential period of the diurnal cycle. Maybe not shocking, but definitely unjust - haha. It may snow at those elevations up your way into May, but it can do so up that way without it being in the mid 40s east of the Berk's down here, just the same. Ha, ...know what it is? It's like we shouldn't be shocked that it is shockingly bad - lol Yeah very true. 12z GEFS initialized at like -14 degrees C below average values over a large chunk of the area at 850mb. Tomorrow isn't a whole lot higher either, still like -10 C below normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean as PF was just showing ... -10 to -14 C 850s ? It's just as bad(good) depending on one's covet. I mean this may be even colder air mass - not sure... Just sayn', that coulda been a marginal atmosphere when that potent mid level impulse settled through the trough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I guess, but sensible weather matters. All I said was that it was more wintry 35 years ago. 10-20" with afternoon temps of 32-34F with +SN is a little more wintry than well into the 40s with abundant sun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Didn't mean to undermine the significance of the '87 event. Like I said ... the snow aspect is a separate matter - so consider the post a separate facet, too. This air mass would dump a powder if it it could.

wxeyeNH Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Let evening we had several hours of snowshowers with just a dusting left over this morning. Had to an errand up in Lincoln NH. This afternoon the "snow on the ground" line is about 5 miles south of there. All the Whites down to the valley floors are snow-covered. Boy, snow-cover and late Aprl sun is blinding bright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 It’s like spring loaded … and making 55 out of this gelid piece o shit air mass ‘might’ speak to the potential on Sunday … We really haven’t yet taken advantage of the returning sun even once. Every day there’s been sun it’s been an offsetting battle in CAA or cellar starting grind. That’s an interesting under the radar aspect. Not once. Yet we’re above normal by insult decimals. Lol. Who knows how long we have to wait for the first free height boundary layer to work in - Sunday won’t be it but should recover to 70. At this rate that’ll seem hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious if like the entire planet’s cooling offset budget was over us. Haha.

Typhoon Tip Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I’m wondering if it’s gonna be a cool asshole boring summer … Conventional wisdom coming of La Niña (I thought ?) winter/spring typically went on to warm summers. I may not be right about that. But suppose I am … when I think back to other hot summers it seemed like they didn’t come out of the gates this way. They were done stuffing -2sd cold turds down our throats by mid March. 1976 … 2012 these were preceded by weak to moderate Niña I have a personal competing concept, tho. I’m not sure these ENSOs are the same in how they interact/force circulation modes like they used to before 10 … especially 20 years ago. They’ve been uncoupling more frequently than my love life, leaving forecasts rather stranded at times. Niña may not mean much. I mean if the hemisphere flips script and gets hot I’m sure Niña will get merit award but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
