Why didn't it do it for other mtn peaks that were even higher then Brace Mtn in the area? The 3 km NAM does this systematically all the time for all higher peaks, but HRRR singnaling out one mtn for multiple runs? Not sure I have seen that before.

Typhoon Tip Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 On 4/12/2025 at 7:18 PM, H2Otown_WX said: Congrats: Expand It's more than just that look though. Two aspects leap out to me that suggests this is when spring really begins for us: the first being that the troughs stop amplifying as they are moving toward 80W around D5/6 That behavior is significant. the 2nd aspect is that while that is happening, the 540 dm thickness retreats to above 55N also beyond that time range. Altogether, right around that 120 to 144 hours, the local hemisphere fundamentally changes the mode toward a better seasonal correlation. This ridge above is "extra" on top... Even without it, we'd probably be 40s by night and 70 chances by day. BD season notwithstanding but that's more local. The only problem I'm seeing is the WPO ( west pacific oscillation). It's been excessively negative... This has transmitted an unwanted wave signature downstream through the PNA domain ...ultimately driving tendencies for troughs to dig and cold here in the east continent... It's not abundantly clear if that's really changing. The recent ensemble means do suggest it's trying to reposition toward the Date Line ... which sends a -EPO on a west limb surge... That drops the Great Basin heights and up the eastern heights go... the operational runs seem to be responding to that forcing lately - that's what we're seeing. So the sensitivity seems to be related in getting all that to actually happen... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
