It will happen when we have all but given up and we have a +NAO, +AO and it’s March. And everyone says it cannot snow in that pattern. Then it will melt the next day...seen it hundreds of times...thousands
One thing that has been fun..somewhat...is waiting to see what the model runs spit out...it’s not usually blue but it’s still interesting. And again it was always post 15 Jan where we needed to pay attention. That’s tomorrow. Strap it on and break it off is the best way to describe the upcoming pattern.
Isn’t it just the fact that Canada was flooded with PAC air prior to the block? Yeah I know the PAC itself is crap but north of the border has been an inferno. Bad luck yes but is it fair to say that same pattern now but frigid source region would result in a colder outcome? Just random musings
yes. just need it a little further south by about 300 miles. I'm trying to figure out what the block actually blocked on that run. the primary made it into IL...the temps spiked to near 60 on hr 198. the HP retreated and was weak sauce to begin with. was that supposed to happen?
if its right at least we don't have to worry we are so close...its not even close..you could drive 100 miles north and still be rain under that look. Interesting developments today so far.
6z GFS has a similar evolution with the departing low taking 50-50 spot forcing the clipper south but its so dry. Who knows. Nothing really at surface.
With the advertised block and the SER we could have a scenario where the convergence over where ever it sets up allows for a nice overrunning event. The where it sets up part can be problematic. Pray to be in the cold side.
Move?
I think so. If this is the new normal then we can live anywhere as my wife points out. She said it can not snow here or not snow in our lake house. She’s right but what I heard was...we can not have sex pretty much anywhere at least we’ll have a water view.
