Take a look at difference of the shortwaves at top of ridge from current 12z euro and 00z euro. Newer runs weakened it. I really think this is what is partly hurting us. That shortwave isn’t as strong so isn’t diving as far S.

Yeah the southern stream is actually ejecting decently this run but that northern shortwave never really digs until much later which is bad. We still almost get an event regardless but we need that northern shortwave to come in a bit deeper.

if you try to trace it back, the energy responsible for that s/w is over the pacific ocean off the coast of Japan :lol: 

holding out some weenie hope that it “comes back” once its closer to the west coast ha

Deeper to sharpen the trough?

Rather than the nuclear detonation that you got from 00z because of the northern and southern energy fusion

You get a much more tame event that’s all dependent on the NS

Would love to see how the EPS and its members handle this. It still seems very sensitive to me and I think @Heisy makes a good point about the amplitude of the NS energy being an important component to if we get anything close to a phase.

Yeah I’m actually not quite as discouraged as I normally would be due to the northern stream being the biggest culprit here. We might be screwed anyway, but I don’t think it’s the southern stream trending slower. It actually ejected slightly quicker than the 00z run but the northern stream isn’t digging much at all this run. That is the culprit. If that trend continues then we’re def screwed but since it’s the very fast northern stream with that shortwave still almost on the other side of the pacific, I have some hope that it comes back a bit stronger.

And that is very possible…we’ve seen it happen many times before.  Doesn’t mean it will this time of course, but that’s plausible at this juncture.  Gotta just wait and see.

It hangs a lot of moisture back over the region even though it misses, I take that as this can be better on future runs.

A couple ways to get it done(if not the huge event) get snow into the region. Not a bad place to be at this point.  A couple avenues to get something, isn’t all bad.

You could kind of see that disconnect as early as 90h imo

But it’s really evident 18 hours later

My concern is that this disconnect shows up sooner rather than later so we need more immediate changes, but I agree with you that setting aside the surface depiction and just looking at 500, there’s not as much reason to be discouraged as you’d think.

I'm usually somewhere between naive and optimistic, but I have to say I didn't understand all the excitement about this yesterday and last night.

I think we have reason to be guardedly optimistic.  We had 3 shots a week ago with the current system giving DC 6-10 #1.  We knew #1 was a miss for close to a week.  #2 and #3 are in a better environment (less damage from NAO vs help potentially).  We’re 0 for 1 but we have more middling pitchers to face for #2 and #3.  Sooner or later we will score something.  We’re not going 30 days with no water from the heavens.

I'm confused. Just because the 12z models that came out are less than favorable, does that mean the storm is done? I mean at this point there's not even a sampling of what's on shore yet, correct?

This is not even close to being done. Given the factors evolved, particularly with the idea of phasing northern/southern streams we aren't going to have a solid idea until probably Tuesday. My thinking is that beginning with Tuesday 12z run we are going to want to see continuity. At this point, we're going to continue seeing run-to-run differences with the handling of each stream and that is perfectly normal at this stage.
