Mid to Long Range Discussion ~ 2024


 Share

Recommended Posts

Trough east of HI = ridge over the SW.  The baja low will kick east.  We'll see some waffling with all models on this one for a little while but it's legit possibility.

Way too slow and won't make in time with the cold and a complete dud.  A little slow and more ice than snow as the mid level cold pulls out and all we have left is in-situ low level cold air.  Just fast enough and could be a classic I-85 snowstorm.

Eric Webb: 

Ironically, 2 things that are normally associated with milder winters in the eastern US & were cited by some as reasons for a milder winter again this year (westerly QBO & a strong stratosphere polar vortex/NAM) are actually going to be working to try & keep it colder this winter via enhancing the -EPO/+TNH pattern.

Every situation is different & interactions between most teleconnections are non-linear.

Is anyone else not able to pull up a current potential snowfall map for RAH? The dates I keep getting are from April 2024:

https://www.weather.gov/rah/winter

I wasn't able to pull up any updated maps on that page either, but I was able to find the map below in the statewide maps section.  https://www.weather.gov/rah/nc#snow

It would seem we are likely going to be in the wait for the January pattern change after all. Eric Webb seems a little more optimistic this time around at least, thinking there's about a 50/50 chance of extended cold periods in the long term, vs staying a more typical la Nina torch pattern

Yeah, mid to long range is looking like crap again.

HRRR is pretty aggressive with the snow band tonight. Definitely could be interesting with extremely cold temps even with light amounts!

Part of me doesn't want our streak to end on a dusting. The Triad and Raleigh should be too dry to have any accumulation, but possibly a dusting for the East side of Charlotte  and areas to the north and East (Albemarle, Rockingham, Salisbury)

Allan Huffman: I think the area with the best chance to see flakes tonight will be bounded by I I-77 to the W, HWY 421 to the E, I-40 to the N and Hwy 74 to the S. So from CLT to say Pinehurst to Pittsboro  to Yadkinville A dusting is possible. Best time for a flurry in Triangle probably 1-5 am

NAM and HRRR pretty much agree with it being centered on Albermarle or so. I am debating if it is worthwhile to head that way for such a minor event. The intriguing thing is a meso low could form to the south of that region which could enhance things a bit if that is true.
