Typhoon Tip Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 2 hours ago, CoastalWx said: Friday will be a true downslope dandy. First nape day ? Btw (you’ll love this) … today marks the end of the perennial solar minimum … begins the solar transition. It’s like saying it’s the first day of ‘sun spring’. Subtle at first will ensue a steadily increasing but noticeably warmer and warmer direct sun sensation. And yes .., exposed parked cars … even on cold days … will tend to toast inside. HAHA the best part! I’ve noticed this many years ago as pretty coherent upon this time every February … Then upon later learning of the solar min/tran/max. It was like a ‘whoa. right!’ moment. Made perfect sense. Anyway … it’s probably as good a date as any to designate the beginning of ‘nape season’. It’s when light wind sunny moments … even in comparably cold air gives that allusion …almost “protection” inside a fragile soothing bubble. And the car thing. Etc. I’ve walked down the street in calm, 33 F air under cobalt blue sky, immersed in mid February sun and could swear it must be much warmer. Actually ...Friday looks too breezy for the direct exposure aspect. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Fwinotw - the 12z NAM is about 5 to 10kts stronger with the wind max carving down the Rockies at 18 hours... I'm not on Pivotal or faster intake sites - relying on TT at the moment... but that "could" translate favorably along the EC out in time. we'll see - 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you’ll be here for 12z to see what the next cycle shows, and so will I. Yep...all the Tblizz's of the world will be dutifully clicking on the 12z runs regardless of what they say about it having no chance. They like preaching to the choir though....as if 90+% of the posters here don't already know it's a long shot. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 12z GFS is the more likely solution for that thing... which, not without sensitivity to the matter, is like a maleficent turn through a burn ward with a spritzer of rubbing alcohol ... oh well.

Yes it’s a fracture and not compound so probably won’t require surgery which I guess is a win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 GGEM was a close call...it dragged down some colder air too, but we just couldn't quite get the steady precip in here. If that was like 50 miles NW, you prob get a nice slug of heavy wet snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone-68 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 We’re almost at the point in the year that even if significant snow falls it won’t last very long on the ground anyway unless it’s a massive snowfall 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
