burgertime Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wonder how the current snow pack to our north, and north west will effect temps this week and next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triadwx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I see the Canadian shows a fair amount of Cold Air Damming, which may lead to some wintry precipitation on the onset Monday and Monday night. I feel like the models are slightly wanting to turn around from being too warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amos83 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wonder how the current snow pack to our north, and north west will effect temps this week and next. LOL, I just realized it was Wednesday. I was thinking we have a solid week to 8 days to see if models trend colder for Monday but it is actually closer than that! I'm not going to pay too much attention to anything today and then if there is still some hope come tomorrow afternoon I may begin to take notice. For now I have to find a way to get back into work mode after working from home Monday and Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG FROSTY Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 FWIW -- Looking at JB's update this morning about next week..... He says a break in the cold is coming before the reload, He expect the next precip maker on the East Coast to have its best snow farther west and for it rain on much of the East Coast in the areas that got the snow with this storm. Time will tell, but there is no blocking next week that will hold cold in and troughs in the Mississippi Valley love to cut storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea it looks like there will be a relaxing of the pattern...but just on a side note and I know you are simply repeating what was said but I don't know why anyone ever listens to JB. He seems wrong soooo many more times then he is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems wrong soooo many more times then he is right. Not that I listen to Him, But just throwing out another Mets opinion !! I have followed Him for 25-30 years and He really is not that bad, He will tell you he looks for trouble and finds it but when it gets detail time he turns it over to other in house Mets, For He is the Long Ranger. But He has been wrong this winter on long range (But so have most other long range Mets) I don't know why He gets more bashing then any Met in the country ? Nobody can be right 100% of the time. But ever time He's wrong he get's bashed, He's the only Met I've ever seen that suppose to be right 100% of the time.

Not directing this at you either Burger, I totally understand what you're saying too ! Well my problem is just that he seems to choose solutions with little backing. Wasn't this storm not supposed to hit the south? Wasn't the Christmas storm supposed to be an OV special? I haven't been following him long but just in the few years it seems he sticks way to much to his original forecast. Maybe it's just his bias towards the NE, which is fine since the majority of his customers come there...and they are in PA. However I just don't get what his big appeal is and probably never will. BTW this does not mean I will not immediately jump on the Bastardi bandwagon if he says the south is going to be a big winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wonder how the current snow pack to our north, and north west will effect temps this week and next. Burger I think anytime there is snow cover that the local met or puters take that into consideration. It has always been colder with snow cover, that is my openion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is def a NE guy And he is stubborn about changing his call untill last second ( He admits that) which is where he gets burned alot.. But I do like watching to see what his ideas are. But by far my favorite Mets and Pro Forecasters are right here in the se forum !!! Gotta go to work now, Have a good day !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Looks to me like the 0 line has moved farther south on the 0z gfs long range. Still has some weird keystone shape in the line over Kentucky at 156 that was not as pronounced as it was before. That really looks like an error to me. those things don't normally make right angle turns do they? S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyefan1 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Wow, GFS puts 1.49 inches of rain down in CAE next Tuesday 1/18/11. I would love to see that total verify CAE..... .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... -- Changed Discussion --MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO BE IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT WITH THE LONGWAVE PATTERN THROUGH THE EXTENDED FORECAST. SHORTWAVE ENERGY MOVING THROUGH UPPER LEVEL NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL DIG A TROUGH ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PART OF THE COUNTRY ON SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE SOUTHERN GULF COAST STATES BY MONDAY NIGHT AND LIFT NORTHEASTWARD OFF THE NC/VA COAST BY TUESDAY EVENING BEFORE DEEPENING AS IT CONTINUES TO MOVE UP THE EAST COAST. THIS WILL RESULT IN INCREASING CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. AT THIS TIME...THERMAL PROFILES SUPPORT RAIN AS THE DOMINANT PRECIPITATION TYPE BUT THERE ARE ALSO SOME INDICATIONS THAT A WEDGE COULD DEVELOP AS THE LOW APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTHWEST...KEEPING TEMPERATURES DOWN THROUGH THE DAY ON TUESDAY. IT APPEARS THAT WEDNESDAY WILL BE DRY AS THE LOW LIFTS AWAY FROM THE REGION WITH DRIER AIR WORKING IN BEHIND IT. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD SHOULD REMAIN NEAR OR BELOW NORMAL. THERE IS SIGNIFICANT SPREAD AMONG THE GUIDANCE FOR TEMPERATURES ON TUESDAY WITH SOME UNCERTAINTY ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE POSSIBLE WEDGE...WITH HIGHS RANGING FROM 44 TO 62...AND PLAN TO TREND MAX TEMPS DOWN A BIT.-- End Changed Discussion -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastonwxman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 News in Charlotte has "mix?" for Monday. First I have seen of this, most have been saying rain and 50's Highly unusual to see WSOC predict such a thing considering their conservatism on winter potential around here. I don't think I've ever seen them become the only local news folks to make a call like that this early. Then again, I hardly pay any attention to them so I couldn't guarantee anyone about this.

DCMetroWinston Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I have noticed that after a major snowstorm, TV mets tend to get trigger happy andoverzealous about subsequent snow chances, even when the chances are very questionable. It is interesting to see them go from ridiculously overconservative to overzealous immediately after a major snowstorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting to see them go from ridiculously overconservative to overzealous immediately after a major snowstorm. I've always noticed that too. I think its real. Think how many times we've been staring down the barrel of a real winter storm, only to have some or your really conservative ones play catchup. It happens all the time..then the next small threat and they're actually over doing it. But each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastonwxman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 0z GFS looks too far north with this system. Between hours 96 and 108, it's heading ENE toward central AK with a 1023 high sitting on top of NJ. Later on at 126, the high's retreating but a tad stronger (around 1030mb) and our system pushes into western KY. EDIT: Yep. The low just rockets northward through the OV all the sudden and we're left with some rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed the low up just a bit, direct it just a bit more to the south, trend the hp just a little bit stronger and anchored in NY, and there you have it. We'll see what the other 00z's have to say.

Rankin5150 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 0z GFS looks too far north with this system. Between hours 96 and 108, it's heading ENE toward central Arkansas with a 1023 high sitting on top of New Jersey. I see what you mean. However, with the CAD setups, this thing could have a different look come tomorrow or Sat. I tell ya what...that HP is in a GREAT position. At least this bears watching. Also, there is a High pressure over the Dakotas and one in NE Canada. It seems to me that this would shunt the LP from the gulf more S/SE. I am interested to see what the EURO says tonight.

I also find it hard to see how the GFS shows the moisture making it that far up into Tenn/KY with a string of high pressures from west to east, per the 00Z GFS. Although the HP's are not that strong. Correct me if I am wrong Pro's/Met's. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This run of the GFS struck me as a bit odd regarding what it did with our low by shooting it up north so quickly. Don't know if I can buy into that yet though. We'll see with the next few runs. In the meantime, after 144, we get a nice blast of colder air settling in for a few days, relaxes a bit, and then ANOTHER shot comes in around the 216 hr. thanks to a high to our NE.

Yep, and something is bound to show up sooner or later from the south (Baja?). I am willing to bet come Saturday we have Robert throwing porn model commentary left and right about potential next week. The question is the timeframe.

weatherlover Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I know this if off topic but I was just wondering how this winter ranks in the Mountains as to all time snow.. Seems like they are getting pounded every other day and this has to be one the best ski years ever for the high country.. Has anyone heard how this year ranks??

Gastonwxman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Alright. 0z CMC says a bit of ice to start out with for WNC and then snow along the Apps but turning to a cold rain for everyone outside the mountains for most of the day Monday. It has a weak low around 1010mb swinging from central MS to central TN at 120 with a 1026mb high sitting somewhere within southern Quebec and sliding eastward before the low curves NE by hour 144 toward an area just off the coast of Maine at 1005mb . 120: http://www.weatherof...ast/136_100.gif 144: http://www.weatherof...ast/495_100.gif Precip type: http://collaboration...pe_gem_reg.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
