CAPE

Same general look, but the position/amplitude of the trough in the Pacific is slightly different with the EPO ridge further east. Impacts the location and character of the downstream trough. The bottom panel is a nice gradient look. Get a wave or 2 with the boundary to our south and we snow.

That's because the initial conditions are different each model cycle so the perturbation of those initial conditions among the ens members often results in somewhat different outcomes from one run to the next. The ensemble forecast is a 'check' on the higher res deterministic for that particular run- each ens run gives an indication of uncertainty(error in initial conditions) for that particular deterministic outcome, and so (especially at longer range) they will also reflect some differences from run to run. 8-10 days out I simply monitor the mean over a series of consecutive runs, and the outcome generally stays pretty consistent, depending on the model, number of members, etc. Anecdotally the Euro/EPS seems more consistent from one cycle to the next. That's my take and I am sure its not completely correct lol.

Block broke down. HP runs away and low tracks west. No coastal redevelopment in that scenario. We got a few more runs to go.

I suppose. Just watched the Falcons beat the Rams. Didn't see that coming. Stafford has been so good but not tonight.

Y'all actually doing pbp on GFS op run 10 days out? lol

Nothing crazy good, just Bulleit. Decent bang for the buck and something I can actually drink straight without spending big bucks.

I need another bourbon.

I have no idea why he posts this crap. Its not going to boost morale when half the forum is about to bail on winter already lol. FOCUS ON THE 500 MB PATTERN AT THIS RANGE. Fucking fuck the goddamn snow maps FFS.

Yeah the signal for a storm on the 18z GEFS isnt great. Its there, but not overly impressive. That said, we are 10 days out, and the h5 look IS consistently conducive across guidance.

Its been more impressive on the EPS-

If a significant snowstorm is in the offing the 9th is probably the one. Signal has been there on the ens means and h5 has that look in the HL with the +height anomalies moving west into Baffin.

LOL TBH his posts have been much better lately. He possibly knows too much, and the rest of us just cant grasp it.

Only if Lamar is the QB. Monken cant help himself if he has a QB who can throw downfield accurately. That's not Huntley- He can run a bit and throw short passes and screens, and HAND THE BALL OFF TO A HALL OF FAME BACK. In a way I hope Lamar cant go.

His schtick.

I've lost count of how many bourbons and voddy tonics I have had today. Not really that many, but enough. I think its time for bed lol.

Wonder what Ji thinks about HH GFS I'm guesting, DISASTER!!

DE is part of our subforum. Not sure what the post was supposed to mean. If it was meant to be tongue in cheek, it didn't really land.

Good point. The defense sucked. A bit better now but the pass rush is still pathetic. And in that game Lamar was fully healthy and playing like an MVP. That wont be the case if they make the playoffs, if he even plays.

Although we were kicking the Bills' ass before we self destructed in the 4th quarter in the first game of the year. Pretty much set the tone for this disastrous season.

Or the refs called an actual TD a TD.

Now next week the battle for which team gets in to get their ass kicked in the wildcard game.

Damn. Could they actually win this thing? 2 mins to go. It is the Browns.

He is already panicking over an EPO ridge lol.

Don't need ABOVE normal precip. Also its a super LR model. How the fuck is it going to accurately depict how many storms might hit a particular region. All we need is a few, and precip can still be below or normal, with normal to above normal snowfall.

That look has worked out for much of our region quite often in recent winters, but maybe not so much for you ?
