  1. Complex...and I mean complex set-up. I don't trust any model at this point. With that much energy running around(and strong), one would think a winter storm in the east is plausible this weekend. Hopefully, modeling begins to reach some kind of loose consensus today.
  2. 18z GFS sort-of got back the clipper which feeds into the slp. NE areas of the forum benefit.
  3. Spring is almost here for sure, or at least spring followed by a little more cold during early March...then it could get wild. It is teed-up for you severe folks. Just keep the hail from shredding my roof and cars. $30K is enough for one decade!
  4. 12z CMC with a different scenario. There is so much energy is in the pattern, it makes me think of this quote.... "Negative, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full." .
  5. iMHO, that is a decent pass by the slp on the 12z GFS. It is still a "reach" but a little more like the overnight Euro. The GFS is having a multitude of problems with handling energy being in(or not in) the Southwest. If all of that comes out, there should be a storm.
  6. That "should" be a phase if that trend continues.
  7. The 12z GFS left almost no energy over the 4-Corners for this weekend's potential window. Until that model resolves that BIG problem, no solution can be trusted. MAJOR differences at 12z.
  8. Just looking at the 6z GFS(12z is running now), it looks like bowling ball season is about to begin. Most of those are cutters, but all you need is one.
  9. If it doesn't cut-off the energy in the southwest, that could have been a big system. If that Idaho energy is real...the story isn't written on this yet.
  10. ...Maybe won't phase, but that is three vortices being juggled at 150. Crazy looking run. Doubt it looks even close to that next run. It does tell me that next weekend is not worked out yet.
  11. Was about to say the same thing. Yeah, this is not going to be anything like the last three runs I don't think. Should phase...could even cut.
  12. We had light snow last night for about an hour and flurries again this morning. We had a ton of rain prior to that. Streams are full. January finished AN for rainfall here. Feb has a chance to be AN as well with the past couple of days of rain(2.08”) now already in the books. Good start for precip here at TRI.
  13. Definitely got some snow here. Just got a very light dusting. Snow lasted about an hour.
  14. For folks on the northern Plateau, NE TN, SE KY, SW VA, and W NC...after the 11th there looks to be several weak northern-dominated systems which will need to be watched.
  15. If I had to pick one place that looks like is going to score, it would be Arkansas. If you look at the storm track above, you score with the western track. I think after the 20th, we have a break as the MJO rotates through the warm phases...and then a reload during March. I think this is a year where a later winter storm is on the table after a faux spring bout of warmth. If El Nino is about to to take over, spring might not be a slam dunk for being base warm. After BN temps for January IMBY, I will be ready for spring by the end of the month. My first onions were planted in the hoop house this afternoon. Spring is almost here. I never discount February surprises.
  16. I think the 10th-20th is a good window. When looking at the Euro Weeklies, I wouldn't be surprised to see the MJO make it back into colder phases(after leaving colder phases after mid-month) at some point around mid-March. It looks to me like the STJ fire lights at the end of the model colder winder for mid-Feb. Fingers crossed we can score something. Looks like we are back to BN for a 2-2.5 weeks beginning tomorrow.
  17. Take a minute and look at the MJO phases above. Which one does that temp map look like?
  18. 12z EPS sure looks like a phase 1 or 2 of the MJO. No changes to my thoughts from yesterday.
  19. Yeah, man. The 18z operational Euro looked decent before the model ended at 90. I totally skipped the operational and just looked the control for that earlier post..
  20. 18z Euro control backed precip up to the Apps. It has sneakily been trending NW today. Will have to make a big move during the next 36 hours on modeling in order to have a chance.
  21. Just uncanny. So, when you see the GFS honed-in on that event around the 13th....Normally, I would give no model any credence at 240, but it has been locked on.
  22. 12z GEFS clown map for the entire run. Most of this falls after the 12th. That is a good signal.
  23. I am going to use the GEPS as maybe the GEFS is a bit overdone. A big ridge out west shuttles cold air southeastward. Cold temps over Hudson Bay pivot waves of cold into that synoptic set-up. The storm tracks on modeling this winter are the two arrows originating in TX or the western GOM. That is a good set-up. No guarantees, but we take that 10/10 times. Good confluence set-up.
  24. And one last post in a flurry of posts. Here is the d11-16 5d 500mb height anomaly look. Modeling has been quite consistent with this look for many days. The actual switch to this 500mb looks begins right around the 10th. Not saying that is what happens, but that looks pretty good. Get that inside of day 5, and one would think we have some chances.
