CoastalWx Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 That slug of rain south of SNE is driving the watch. Looks good to me. Jack west with the steady rain and then the more potent stuff with a local jack near low pressure center. Regardless another unnecessary widespread soaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 1 hour ago, dendrite said: The darkness sucks. You didn't ask for this I'm just commiserating: I'm sensing over the last 10 years or so of this engagement that some of the more dependable rocks of endearment to the winter season are beginning to erode their preferences, too, just as I am. Perhaps around the same rate as Greenland ice post 2000 ... lol. I'm probably being more reflective in that statement actually. I've noticed in me, more and more so I feel a hesitation as the day light shortens. I'm not so sure it's day-light related, though. I've always been sort of 'willing' to sacrifice the sun set by 4:10 because it was tied to a necessity for get exciting winter events to occur. It's always been about the entertainment and experience of winter's fare. The problem is ... the fare's been rained out too many times in the last 10 years. I actually knew or suspected anyway ... 2015's remarkable February was unsustainable. Heh, obviously. But it seems more and more so, we don't sustain 32 with 10:1 snow chances. The wide variations of temperatures, from teens and 20s, to even 60s or 70s in the heart of winter, happens too much to settle into the mystique of winter - it just won't psycho-babble allow it. In short, winters are being ruined. I don't think this is just a simple matter of a "1980s" type regression, either - I lived that decade and don't recall this type of disruptive complexion to the years as they past. Mostly, it just didn't snow around a narrower distributions of temperature. If it rained, then froze... it was like 38 to 18... Not 72 to -10. hahaha. I'm zaggeratin' there of course. My point is, it's hard to get psyched for the dimming daylight, like before, because celestial mechanics and the result of "winter" seem more and more to be uncoupling like the ENSOs people keep trying to use to predict them. Anyway, I wonder if anyone else is just sort of ...getting f'n sick of dealing with it, and now ... we're stuck with losing the day-light and getting short-changed on that investment. I'm not talking about 2015 February - that's some kind of 300-year return rate fluke [probably]. I'm talking about just getting a snow storm.. followed by menial cold. Maybe it softens a little. But then a cold front slips south, refreezes, and we get a ice storm... And, there's a big dawg on the Euro for D8... To soon to blame it on CC, perhaps But this newer version of ..whatever it is we are getting over the last 10 years is, it's been giving me pause.

weatherwiz Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Been a nice steady rain this morning. I don't mind it because it fits in with the mood after last night. The sound of the steady rain is quite soothing on the ear drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Yeah, yesterday I spent some time outlining what the guidance was more than less ( at the time ) leaning toward, but these runs overnight ... heh. While not completely divorced from the ideas proposed then, they're certainly stressing the relationship... It's probably more sensible that there less continuity, actually, because the flow below the westerlies/polar jet, is really nebular/entropic. We lose the structure, we are open to run-to-run chaos. Still, there may be a something developing ( sub-tropical in nature) near the SE coast... but there's an array of equal chances as to what happens to it. If it fails, a slug of deep PWAT rains may end up coming N anyway. And in either case, unsure it even makes it this far N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
