Jebman Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Just gotta love their Area Forecast Disco, I actually got a few chuckles out of it...... Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Reno NV 105 PM PST Thu Jan 12 2023 .SYNOPSIS... Enjoy the break in the weather today, another period of active weather returns this weekend and into early next week. Expect additional disruptions to travel and mountain recreation through the weekend as periods of heavy snow return to the Sierra. The active pattern is forecast to continue through much of next week with a period of drier conditions likely for the end of next week. && .DISCUSSION... All together now, breathe in, breathe out. This break in the action is short-lived so we should all take some time to appreciate the relative quiet and be present in this moment. Well, enough of that, we are gearing up for yet another active period...starting tomorrow. Taking a look at satellite imagery over the Pacific Ocean, we see yet another system lurking over the open waters and closing in on the West Coast. Today`s general flow pattern will bring southeasterly winds through, allowing for some warmer air to filter in. Our temperatures will hover just above average ahead of the next round, bringing snow levels ranging 7000-8500` for the afternoon. Highs will top out for today for most of us in the mid-to-upper 40s, then overnight lows will dip as the storm moves in overhead. Sierra locations will see 20s, while the western Nevada valleys will hover near freezing. Well, that portion of the discussion was brief and pleasant, now onto the weekend series of systems. Wind gusts pick up tonight with ridges gusting to 65+ mph, a precursor of things to come. For Friday morning wind gusts get even more excited, ridges gusting around 85 mph just ahead of the precipitation moving in. We get right into the action starting early Friday, when the first in our series of storms brings snow showers back to the Sierra, and begins to disrupt travel over the range. For western Nevada valleys, little to no accumulation is expected as the spillover potential is underwhelming. Anything that falls in the valleys will be rain or a light mix. The Tahoe Basin could see 2-5" of new snowfall with higher amounts on the western shores. Sierra passes could see 8-12" out of this first round. Snow totals for Mono County will be lighter, with areas west of Hwy 395 getting 3-8". This will be minor in comparison to what is to come Saturday, but will be enough to create some travel headaches, especially for mountain passes. If you plan to travel through the weekend, be sure to check current road conditions via CalTrans or NDOT. If the western Nevada valleys were thinking we were leaving them out of the excitement, they get their turn starting Saturday. Snow levels begin to fall between 5000-5500` for Saturday, bringing snow into the foothills. Snow will become heavy for the Sierra during the day, when we will again be measuring in feet for The Tahoe Basin up to the passes. Elevations below the snow line will see rain/snow mix during the day, changing over to snow after dark. This will bring light totals to the valley floors overnight, with 0.5-1" possible. Although Sunday will be a relative break in the action, with lighter snowfall overall, there will still be snow accumulating in the Sierra. An additional 3-5" is possible for the Tahoe Basin, Sierra passes could see another 6-8". I wish I could say we were expecting a break after the weekend, but that would be a lie. Monday into Tuesday is shaping up to be yet another potent round of snowfall for the Sierra. A bit of uncertainty remains with timing and snow totals, but a preliminary glance suggests at least another foot or so for the Tahoe Basin, Sierra passes could see another 1-2`. Looking beyond Tuesday, we see this album just keeps skipping, with the same old story of more active weather into Wednesday. The first break appears to be Friday, when ridging starts to take control of our weather pattern and offer some light at the end of this snowy, wet tunnel.

Going to call the doctor soon. At this moment, snow or lack thereof has zero significance. Those kinds of temps are scary with kids. My youngest went through that back in the fall. She is 16 but at your daughters age it just zaps them down. Hope she is feeling better. And hope you are doing ok. Hugs 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deformation band was just puking snow. It started out slowly the 2nd half of Saturday Feb 11 but by midnight (NW of Philly) it was ripping. Had a lull around daybreak, then the deathband pressed thru with sustained 35mph winds and thunder for about 45 minutes.....rates of 3-4"/hr. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 8 minutes ago, psuhoffman said: But the issue is there is way too much crossover between the pattern and the fact it’s warming to avoid some bleed over. Because a lot of the analysis we do in winter is centered on “is it gonna snow” and the analysts we do of the long range pattern is grounded in historical precedence and expected outcomes, it’s relevant and stupid to just ignore it. The issue seems to be that when it comes up in relation to the pattern the simple mention of it upsets some. Some for emotional reasons some for political maybe I dunno, but that then starts a side debate about it and then veers off on a tangent and I get the result isn’t good. Take today. I didn’t talk about climate change at all. I simply refuted some claims that “this is just a normal cyclical thing” by showing the data that this is the least snowy period ever. That’s it. Then I addressed some individual “causes” you brought up one by one and said there is more to this than to just keep cycling between different variables as a cause but I didn’t say the elephant in the room. But we have to discuss what’s impacting the pattern right? But that started 20 posts on climate change again because everyone knows what’s really going on. I do understand I just think it’s kinda silly and a lost cause. I dont disagree with a thing you're saying. Honestly. I'm trying to look for at the cause of things by utilizing those tools that have been studied and written about much deeper and longer ie enso, pdo, nam, mjo, etc. The whole (can't say the word) thing is still relatively in infancy of studies. You would be an AMAZING asset to that group. You have alot to offer in that regard. I hope I didn't offend you which I probably didnt....I've been around long enough to know you are a debater with thick skin. Have a good one fellow PSU alum.

mattie g Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 7 hours ago, Bob Chill said: We're the same now. Beat into submission or had some sense knocked into us. One or the other lol. I also agree with your thoughts. Epic turnaround is possible but imho, winter has spoken and it will make few happy in the east no matter what. I don't agree that this is the "new normal". The mid Atlantic has had terrible stretches going back to the early 70s when my memory tape ends. Early 70s totally sucked until 76-77 and that was just frigid. Feb 79 turned me into a weenie. Then the early 80s came... I have plenty of memories of absent winter... It may not snow as often but the string of big storms since 2000 is absolutely not what the 80s or 90s looked like. Or even the 70s. It's not like things fells off a cliff. Lol. It's pretty much the same types of winters we've been having. Mostly warm and disappointing with some zingers. I agree with you, Bob. We might lose a bit on the margins, but overall I don't believe we're staring at mild temperatures and inability to snow year on year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
