The_Global_Warmer Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 LSX EXTENDED...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY12Z GFS AND 00Z ECWMF ARE REMARKABLY SIMILAR IN THEIR DEPICTIONS OF THIS WEEKEND WEATHER AS A SOUTHERN STREAM UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES FROM THE BAJA OF CALIFORIA FRIDAY MORNING TO ARKANSAS BY SUNDAY MORNING. ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL HELP SATURATE THE ATMOSPHERE AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM AND RESULT IN LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW OVERSPREADING THE CWA FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING. NOW DEPENDING ON THE STRENGTH OF THE SYSTEM AND EVENTUAL TRACK WE COULD SEE A DEFORMATION ZONE DEVELOP...BUT PINPOINTING THAT THIS FAR OUT IS POINTLESS. MEANWHILE...A DEEP TROF WILL BE CARVED OUT ACROSS THE WESTERN CONUS WITH ANOTHER SHORTWAVE SLIDING ACROSS THE CWA ON MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW SHOULD SPREAD ACROSS THE CWA FROM WEST TO EAST AGAIN...AND IF THE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM IS DEEP ENOUGH THERE COULD BE ANOTHER DEFORMATION ZONE THAT SETS UP SOMEWHERE ACROSS THE MIDWEST...BUT AGAIN NO NEED TO DIVE TOO FAR INTO THE DETAILS. THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME FOR THE MODELS TO SORT OUT THE SPECIFICS...BUT IT IS TIME TO RAISE POPS INTO THE CHANCE CATEGORY AND START HIGHLIGHTING THE POTENTIAL OF MEASURABLE SNOW THIS WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK IN THE HWO AND MULTIMEDIA WEATHER BRIEFING.

IWXwx Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'll ride the best model and anticipate nothing but boring cold. The way my winter's been going, I will agree with Alek and the Euro with it's best verification scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Euro sort of loses the "best" distinction when you get out to 6 or 7 days. I still think it has the best verification, but as one would expect all models go to crap then and it is ensemble mean time by then. Unfortunately here the Euro ensemble mean looks a lot like the ECM op run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately here the Euro ensemble mean looks a lot like the ECM op run. the euro ensembles are cold. then at the end seem to drop the mother load into Southern Canada.

baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 meh, it's only January 4th, things can change in a big way but i hate med/long range forcasting so i won't bother. I just think the seasonal trends looks to remain strong enough for the next 5-7 days to send this one west, south and east. If anything the blocks have been underdone, so corrections south are probably in order on the GFS and Canadian. My thoughts exactly, and glancing at the GFS ensemble, the op run is one of the more bullish runs with respect to its members. Based off season trends with the blocking pattern and the big wedge of dry air over the Great Lakes, for now something just S of the GFS is a good call for the time being. Also, does anyone remember what happened with the last storm with a similar setup/stretching deformation zone in the wake of a slowly weakening east coast trough? Look at the 700 hpa RH circled.

Unfortunately here the Euro ensemble mean looks a lot like the ECM op run. Not really. Unless we were looking at two totally different euro ensembles? They have a bit more energy to the west unlike the euro itself which has it all down south and east. Note to how the western energy tries to close off too. Coastal gets fully going after that..

Thus Miller b'ish Suppressed and weak is how it looks with the early/midweek storm threat next week. I don't know how you can see anything positive in that, especially if you compare it to the GFS op which at this point would be a decent scenario.

I don't know how you can see anything positive in that, especially if you compare it to the GFS op which at this point would be a decent scenario. I'll be honest. I would take the euro itself over the ensembles. lol That is a killer wnw flow LES set up the euro has for here. The positive it that a number of it's members are tracking s surface low to Ohio/Lake Erie and closing it off which yeah would be much better for here then some crappy eastcoast low that does zero for anyone out this way.

baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'll be honest. I would take the euro itself over the ensembles. lol That is a killer wnw flow LES set up the euro has for here. The positive it that a number of it's members are tracking s surface low to Ohio/Lake Erie and closing it off which yeah would be much better for here then some crappy eastcoast low that does zero for anyone out this way. For now I am cutting it down the middle between ECM/GFS ensemble means. ECM has been on steroids lately with EC bombs, and that vortex it holds over the Great Lakes just looks odd. I doubt that feature will be able to completely shunt the push of warm air advection like the ECM currently has. 12Z GFS op hints at a sharp stretching deformation zone and a lot of dry air over the Lakes, so taking that into consideration, the a slightly S adjustment with its own ensemble mean, also inline with the pattern thus far, seems like a decent bet. Either way, MN is screwed, so I have no bias in this storm. At least we get some cold arctic air filtering down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I just got back and while reading through the pages I lol'd at the EURO. Anyone along/south of I-70 (And along/south of I-80 west of the Mississippi) should consider this storm a lock. I'm 99% confident on that much.

michsnowfreak Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 True, what miserable winter up there in 67-68 though. And I was just joking about it. LAF had 30" that season. 30.6" in DTW in 67-68. January was a nice wintry month, including snow depth to 10" mid-month following a 7.6" snowstorm on the 13/14th. Also had another good storm Mar 22/23, with 7.7" at DTW. This wasnt a great winter overall, but the only one in the '60s to feature two 6"+ storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 The 18Z GFS looks like a big pile of junk and a disorganized train-wreck through 132. It is less amplified and has a weaker secondary jet streak coming through the intermountain W. I have a feeling this will look more like the GFS ensemble mean.

michsnowfreak Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 QFT Only thing that's going to be cutting up here in this threads time line is my Steele Reserve Farts. Maybe around super bowl sunday winter will start here but I wouldn't bet on it.. And then winter is over in a little over a month.. IMO - March is not a winter month after the first week 9 times outta 10... So save me and yourselves the speech - Josh and others lol. March is the start of hanging your skidded up underpants and wives granny panties out on the line for the sun to dry season. And another thing.. All these folks and METS that are tooting a Rocking March or a back loaded winter are doing nothing but blowing smoke up my a.ss. Its never a good thing IMO when the consensus is thinking along the same lines... I should say this winter cancel rant is for MBY.. Other areas will probably continue to fair pretty well all things considered. Wont give you a speech, just want to clarify something. When Ive been harping on a backloaded winter, I wasnt expecting dull until March. It means more late January onward, esp probably rockin' February.

baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 GFS salvages it at the end with a developing mid level low although it is weaker overall. Interesting to see the general trend the next couple days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Another feature worth watching is the cutoff low and how the model guidance handles that feature. It will have an effect on both moisture feed and low level warm air advection through the plains and the potential for upstream ridging in the mid levels. The CMC has a positive influence with that cutoff as it is both stronger and partially phased with the trough. Hence the far N outlier solution. GFS/ECM eject it faster and have an overall weaker depiction of that feature with the trough eventually lagging far behind. Trends on the cutoff should be watched closely as a result because it will have a large influence on how the main trough eventually develops.

JoMo Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Another feature worth watching is the cutoff low and how the model guidance handles that feature. It will have an effect on both moisture feed and low level warm air advection through the plains and the potential for upstream ridging in the mid levels. The CMC has a positive influence with that cutoff as it is both stronger and partially phased with the trough. Hence the far N outlier solution.

Harry Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 GFS salvages it at the end with a developing mid level low although it is weaker overall. Interesting to see the general trend the next couple days. I don't think many around here could find much to complain about with this. Except perhaps the folks in central Ohio. But yeah the next few days should be interesting to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 For now I am cutting it down the middle between ECM/GFS ensemble means. ECM has been on steroids lately with EC bombs, and that vortex it holds over the Great Lakes just looks odd. I doubt that feature will be able to completely shunt the push of warm air advection like the ECM currently has. 12Z GFS op hints at a sharp stretching deformation zone and a lot of dry air over the Lakes, so taking that into consideration, the a slightly S adjustment with its own ensemble mean, also inline with the pattern thus far, seems like a decent bet. Either way, MN is screwed, so I have no bias in this storm. At least we get some cold arctic air filtering down. I honestly have no opinion on this atleast till the late week/weekend stuff is sorted. Thus not sure what to think other then there is some potential there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toronto blizzard Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 FWIW... The 18z GFS ensemble mean shows a miller b solution with the primary low tracking up towards Erie PA before the secondary takes over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toronto blizzard Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 P003 plz! http://www.meteo.psu...rsloopmref.html That does look nice. Hopefully this storm can track further NW to affect us and give us a snowstorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, I've lowered my standards big time. Even a grazing per the OP 18z GFS would make me ecstatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I still think it has the best verification, but as one would expect all models go to crap then and it is ensemble mean time by then. Unfortunately here the Euro ensemble mean looks a lot like the ECM op run. Yeah it probably does. I just meant that it's outside of its wheelhouse time. I could've worded my post better.

baroclinic_instability Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 The 0Z NAM is trying to pull a Euro with a huge vortex sitting over the lakes through 84. A weird shift, even by the crappy NAM standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
