Typhoon Tip Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 24 minutes ago, Modfan2 said: Some of the EPS showed backside change from Poconos up through W CT and Mass up into NNE, still think this is plausible? Well … it’s not IMpossible. The models don’t really put out solutions that are impossible… They may be physically less likely – but that’s up to the forecaster to accept or deny what they’re looking at etc. etc. This is kind of a tricky situation. It’s rather unique - seems more and more systems as of late have seldom observed aspects. But in this case we have a transient opportunity for Western Ridge to really feedback on amplify an eastern trough - and it’s a very good looking evolution at mid and upper levels. However, the bottom of the troposphere is just too warm everywhere in lateral dimensions. Very weak baroclinic gradients. And what the models are doing is resolving that by not providing any resistance to sfc cyclone response, very early in the wholesale evolution. That’s why-for the early low up in Ohio like that, and then weakens shearing out through St. Lawrence - it’s because there really isn’t very much support aloft (mechanically) for the low to exist up there - warm air is killing us this season so far to be blunt. But that’s why that behavior is doing that. Then, model still have to accommodate or rather account for all the mechanics swinging around the bottom of the trough where - if it were colder out ahead of this thing that early would’ve waited because the boundary layer would resist cyclostrophic circulation. It’s called boundary layer resistance…. So the total result … a split with some low development shearing out early and then the wave developing a stride the mid Atlantic may actually take place as the mechanics come around. It likely will. No idea from this range “weather” will be bulge back west enough to do with some of these models that are suggesting that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC is not causing our poor pattern. You all can believe whatever you want..that’s fine and good. I don’t come here to debate any of that. I come to see what the weather is or might be over the next week or so. Any farther out is skeptical at best. Eh i don’t think we should ignore the effect of climate change on our weather patterns. Yes, it’s not as simple as “100 years ago this would have been an epic pattern but it sucks now due to climate change”, but when the entire planet is warming like it is that’s going to have a domino effect. Maybe the same physical drivers that lead to x longwave pattern 50 years ago would lead to y longwave pattern now. Or maybe the same longwave pattern 50 years ago would lead to different results now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I think this is a good graph for people to see....this is Boston temperatures for winter....you can see both CC and mother nature on this graph....you can see we've warmed over the past 100+ years but even using the 5 year running average (black line), you can clearly see how it's not a smooth line up....there's torch periods and cold periods.....the torch periods have gotten warmer and you can see how the cold periods have also gotten warmer....they don't get as cold as they used to. Some of the pre-1937 stuff is going to be not apples to apples since Logan airport only took obs starting in 1937....prior to that it was not right on the water so you had much colder minimums. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most understand that the climate is changing and in the warmer direction. The argument develops between those who believe the warming that we are seeing is completely normal and that humans have had no influence to the warming trend and those who believe humans have acted as a catalyst, reducing the overall time it takes to get to endpoint. Speeding the process up, could prevent the planet and species living on it from naturally adapting to the changing climate. The rate we are burning fossil fuels is accelerating our warming, were just don't know how it will affect our planets health or even humans ability to adapt in the short term. Famine, floods, and disease are all concerns a planet of 8 billion plus should have...it is better to be prepared or even try to slow things down a bit than to close the shades and hide until it smacks us in the face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbenedet Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I hate these secondary frontal wave looks - the BL takes a lot more time to cool than the snow maps portray. 37/31 and mod snow doesn't pile up - and temps are warmest when the precip rates are best. And then you have warm, wet ground preceding it. It takes a lot to go right for it deliver something more than the nuisance variety. Vermont and the NH whites may able to cash in, especially with some orographic assist. Elsewhere don't like this look at all.

wxeyeNH Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 One thing is for sure up here, Stein is gone. If the GFS verified another 3" of QPF incoming for Central NH. Snow to rain and if the trend of that coastal continues back to snow.
