    6z GFS overrunning event(can't find a better term for the multiple waves....though tech not a 100% overrunning event)
  2. Carvers Gap
    I was thinking about that as well. If we get a snow layer, we could take a swing at some all time record lows.
  3. Carvers Gap
    18z GFS...Yup.

    Just getting able to dig through the 12z suite. The Canadian....

    Quick LR update(Euro Weeklies): The Weeklies pretty much hold the pattern for the entire run. The source regions gets a bit sketch as maritime air may or may not work into the patter upstream in Canada. Basically the top of the PNA ridge height and position seem to allow maritime Canadian air to flow across the top of the ridge. Still, slightly BN to seasonal temps in January will get the job done. Fly in the ointment(always is one) is that that BN precip will be found over the area. Before anyone panics, that is often the signal for areas which get more snow(or it is just dry....lol). Snowy patterns are often not super juicy on precip anomalies.

    Euro was a good pass, but not nearly as much for the valleys. That said, we are going to see a lot of variations this far out. Both the GFS and Euro have some Miller A in them.
  8. Carvers Gap
    The 12z CMC and GFS both are pretty solid to the end of each of their runs.

    Do we have enough stuff to track now?

    Morning message: We ride with the 0z Euro.

    At 10 days out, lots of room for multiple changes. That said, cold is likely going to be in place. Precip has increased of late - it is raining today and less drought. Drought seems to begat drought. Good to see that waning. Northern stream clippers are likely to be missed. Lots of wiggle room right now.

    Dare I mention this(I may regret it). The LR does not feature a breakdown of this upcoming pattern anytime soon. The CFSv2 seasonal this morning keeps the pattern through January w/ maybe a slight relaxation away from the extreme cold. Moderation would be returning to normal. I suspect we see a Chinook in Canada scour some cold out there while keeping a similar set-up to 500, and then it reloads mid-Jan(kind of fits Cosgrove's ideas). When the NAO weakens, the PNA gets stronger...and when he PNA weakens, the NAO gets stronger. We are long overdue for a cold winter. Could it be this year? IDK, but it might be on the table. That goes against my own winter ideas, but third year La Ninas (I think) have some clusters of winters which held on.......

    Memphis is 40 degrees colder on the 23rd. LOL - quite the correction. Interestingly, the GEPS is flirting with a Miller A on the ensemble. It is not quite there, but it pops a low on the cold front of the 23rd.
  14. Carvers Gap
    The GEFS extended shows moderation by early January but holds the PNA/EPO ridge in place until the end of the run.

    Check out these analogs

    Cold front gradient! Cold 8-14 day forecast by NCEP.
  17. Carvers Gap
    Today was a model battle of "hold my beer who can get the coldest temps"..........83 and 89 are showing up. Bout time for one to throw a 84-85 run in for good measure. Maybe a 93-94?
  18. Carvers Gap
    The EPS says the operational is on crack. LOL. I still cast a wary eye at the operational. I never turn my back on it.

    12z Euro dumps the cold westward which in what would be a wild look. The differences at Memphis at 240 in re: to temps have to be staggering between the EURO vs CMC/GFS. Euro looks like a feedback issue which we have seen before. SER hooks into the NAO. Somehow the cold gets under the PNA/EPO block...Not sure any of that is physically possible, but if there is a way for it to be 70F on Christmas, it appears the Euro has found it. LOL. Wild 12z suite. There might be locals which differ by nearly 70-80 degrees in temps depending on model runs at the exact same time.

    We really need a "wow" button. The hot dog button just doesn't suffice when we are talking eighty below zero. That is only a mere 110 degrees below freezing. I bet when the temp finally gets above freezing there, people are walking around in shorts.

    The source region at 12z in Canada is very cold. We have had those beautiful blocks up top on modeling for weeks, but the source regions was not great. Now, the source region is cold, even by Canada's standards. I was looking at an animation of the CMC(could have been the GFS) late in the run (n hemisphere view) where the cold is just pouring over the pole into North America from a very, very cold Asian continent.
  22. Carvers Gap
    Thanks, to you both. Man. The CMC had a similar number in Canada.
  23. Carvers Gap
    Evidently, the CMC is gonna require paperwork as well for viewing....Departures from normal on the 23rd. This is what happens if a storm deepens to our east. ALL of that cold heads our way.
  24. Carvers Gap
    Check out Greenland(-65F) late in the CMC run. I told ya'll that you needed to sign a waiver....
  25. Carvers Gap
    The CMC has a 1060hp coming south around 204 in the NW Territories. Those are some big numbers for highs and gives us a sense of what modeling is "seeing" at 12z. With wild swings in modeling, I have no idea if this holds....but there is certainly a mechanism in place to drive that cold all the way to the GOM w/ the double block in place.
