Wow Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 With nearly 20 years of GFS (AVN/MRF) running out to 384 hrs, the Euro is finally ready to pull the trigger. This will be fun to watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 The 360 hr Euro doesn't disappoint! That's an active STJ with arctic air diving south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackGrad05 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 Looking more and more likely that Raleigh breaks record for latest first freeze. November 28 since records were taken at RDU and December 3 prior to RDU. The upcoming trough gets us back to "normal" levels and then another warm-up after that.

While RDU did not freeze this morning, many — if not most — rural areas nearby did hit 32. RDU is a heat island these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has any station in Wake, or Johnston for that matter, reported freezing temps yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olafminesaw Posted Wednesday at 05:43 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:43 PM I'm surprised not to see an appearance from @GaWx with updates on the ensemble forecast. Though odds are low for any threat on early December, I normally expect deep dive analysis from even the most far fetched of threats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll never bet against the SE ridge but I’m thinking the details are very far from being ironed out. A stretched PV would go a long way in squashing the ridge a bit more and it’s too early to resolve that. Albeit - it wouldn’t hurt to lay down some snowpack up north. It certainly helps our odds in the better climo months. Still think that 3rd/4th timeframe bares watching. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bares watching but like you said- the SE Ridge has been killer recently and its going to be a problem all winter. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though odds are low for any threat on early December, I normally expect deep dive analysis from even the most far fetched of threats. I’ve been posting in the main La Niña forecasting thread. However, these posts have been addressing changes from run to run of overall US temperatures/heating degree days (especially E US) on EPS but also some GEFS runs as opposed to narrowed to SE US temperatures or winter storm threats. As a part of that I’ve been following natural gas mkt prices, which are often a good gauge of E US ensemble HDD forecasts in week 2. Example: today’s NG high was the highest since Jan! I also in there post about various indices and ENSO SSTa’s. Looking forward to the cooldowns! 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted Thursday at 05:20 AM Share Posted Thursday at 05:20 AM 0Z GFS has FIVE Canadian highs bring cold air down into the SE US! That’s a relative rarity even for the GFS. The NC mtns get 4 different NW flow accumulating events! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted Thursday at 12:14 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:14 PM Ensembles look pretty good first week of December. Ops are showing SER and delayed cold over the mountains. Not a terrible pattern at least. STJ looks active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted Thursday at 01:22 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:22 PM Ensembles showed cold coming all last season in the long range while the ops showed the Ridge hanging out. We all know which one won. Hopefully we actually see a true winter pattern for the first time since January 2022. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinstonSalemArlington Posted Thursday at 04:38 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:38 PM BAMWX: “On this note, I suspect the fail of La Niña is playing a major role in preventing the Eastern/SE ridge that has been so dominant to be prevalent. Stretched polar vortex also setting up in the right spot is a big key too. Fun pattern for #Winter lovers approaching.” https://x.com/bamwxcom/status/1859555444592644424?s=46&t=5ny5bPgiX5Vy3bQMvYTY5g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there’s even a hint of SER on an Ops model it needs to be taken seriously 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
