  1. bold 1 ...essentially correct for the issues at hand bold 2 ...La Nina does not cause the Pacific to buckle or not buckle the flow over N/A - doesn't work that way. La Nina is a long term, oceanic -atmospheric coupled teleconnetor that correlates to pattern forms - but those forms are not instructed by it. The patterns result from an ambrosia of different influences... It can augment patterns and or favor results, but it there is no physical circuitry between "cool off the oceans which allowed arctic air masses' ... that's unfortunately ( don't mean to be rude here ) gibberish bold 3/4 ... I had to give up mid way trying to parse out that dizzying site spec of atmospheric architectural requirements in order to build a cyclone - lol. Just simplify it for now: western ridge ... trough amplifying through the lakes ... in a flow that is not anomalously fast. Vary that some... sure... but if you stress any one of those constructs too much....Beyond that, for winter enthusiasts... obviously one would like cold air in place over New England... while also, not having heights over 580 DM across N. Florida...
  2. Yup... hypothesis confirmed... The D10 Euro extrapolates to at least a thaw if not seasonal page turner
  3. Yeah... like here --> . 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 then whatever
  4. That's a repeating mantra I'm reading on this forum and it's not right really ... The system bombing does nothing up stream/ after the fact. The "slowing" of the flow begins with whole scale meridian curvature - western ridging over N/America. That storm can bomb it's way across the N/Atlantic it has nothing to do with what is orchestrating from the lower OV-MA NE regions after the fact.
  5. More than less I suppose. That particular beast was a hybrid between ... The 12z ( AM) March 30 synopsis featured an open Pacific wave moving east encroaching upon the western GL longitudes... 24 hours later, it was closing down to two contours of standard intervals ... Then on April 1 it was 4 contoured very deep anomaly situated SE of ACK - the evolution was more like 'becoming' a bowling ball.. But it was consistent with the general idea... Just on roids - More typically...you'll see a rain ball on the synoptic charts, with dark blue QPF cores nested in the middle of heaver regions; where there's probably base-ball diameter aggregates pruning early buds and snapping tulip stems, ...of course, enabling neurotics in this engagement to hiding in 6 hours of enabling delusion and denial - Lol useless...
  6. It's a metaphor obviously, but one materialized out of the collective musing of this social -media's vernacular over the years. I means nothing to textual Meteorology - it refers to a tendency in spring for the flow to dip initially like it's still mid winter, only to abandon the southern aspect and pinch off quasi closed lows that roll on through ... They look like round balls. They can some times return a deep core height anomaly... If the timing is right, they can produce giant events - ...most do not, however.
  7. anyway... the CPC's tele curves really end winter .. I'm not sure why the operational run fights it so ...actually, 'ignores' would seem apropos, but is inappropriately anthropomorphic - it's probably just because the operational version is a souped - up turbo charged N stream juggernaut at all times so .. .like I said last week/10 days ago when this "early spring" vibe started to take hold of those distant telecon looks... the operational GFS will be the last model out of all included the "Antarctic" to see any scenario that requires it release it's terrible physical strangle hold on the hemisphere utilizing an N/stream it formulates so powerful that Jupiter rejected it ... man that models is frustrating - What is fascinating is that en masse/ blending via the EOFs we end up with a layout where there is 0 telecon support of any storm, period. Violently, post SSW recovered hemisphere ( AO reversal into positive), while the NAO wobbles > 0 SD, and the PNA dips to -1 .... those are not individual storm suggestions and the sure as shit are not in combinatory influence, either. Right out to the end of the 2.5 weeks of GEF coverage. Yet, individual members still send Pac potency... All the while, dealing with this consummate correction/damping tendency and verified model error ? Those two, together, as compounding facets ... I can't help but feel like we are seeing the "how" phantom storms are being fabricated by the noise of the model(s)... incarnate. I'm wondering if that's sort of a "bowling" season happening - earlier than normal - and during a compression scenario.
  8. I have a time sensy hypothesis that would expire upon reception of the this immediate ensuing Euro run - ...I'm wondering if tries to bulge up a bit of an eastern CONUS ridge D 7 -10 ...latter.
  9. Fwiw - rad also gives the impression they are ~ 30 mi too far N along that N periphery of their 'pink' cloud annotation but we'll see
  10. This thing is a sheared out mess... The WAA/isentropic aspect is being displaced many hours down stream to the point of being ripped away ... opening up a gap between it ( the deep blue p-type rad wall pressently DCA to NJ...) ...and a cyclogen latter response that is more more evidenced as being "starved" ...because the antecedent is stealing away seaward with the dynamics. SO, in total...this is a system that straight up clearly got butt f*ed by the fast flow... This is proving as in motion paragon, why compression does not favor deep lows. Nice learning op... It's all relative - if the in situ mechanics were overwhelming ...you may get closer to a fast moving bomb, but the stretching ...ultimately leading to shearing forces are always there...and it's up to the in situ mechanics to either able to hold it together...or burst up and shred like this bootleg 30 hour ordeal ends up becoming of it -
  11. Storms have ended up west of guidance... but not necessarily stronger. The problem with track - less so amplitude - coverage by the models has been the "needle threading" aspect -
  12. Been elucidating ( or trying to...) that point for a couple of months now frankly: the recurring theme to diminish amplitude relaying outer range aspects ... inside of ~ 5 ..6 day leads. It's been variable amounts of damping ... but always has - never the other direction ( interesting). Sometimes partial, sometimes to the point where once inside 48 hours ... a given original D8 .. 9, reasonably consistent, thus suggestively trackable presence in the flow ... may not even be detectable. The immediate objective response to that is pretty obvious - 'who thinks a day 8 or day 9 feature would verify' But ..neh, - this is worse than that. I'm not sure if that is very normal or abnormal for the recent last 10 or so year of modeling. It's something I have noticed as an excessive frustration this particular year, though. I dunno...maybe something about the hemisphere super-structure/ambience that exposes something they are 'fixing' into the models - maybe to force an over assessment of everything. ...Maybe it is liability protectionism to add 30% vitality to the features out in time. They get their forecast community to over-warn the public early, such than when the inevitable correcting toward harmlessness will need to take place,... there's no way a festering immorality of litigates can hit pay dirt for their own lack of virtuosity and ethics ... I like that - but it's not likely true. Uh...I mean the 'protectionism' - we are a festering immorality of course... It's an important question though, because it seems there's been an increased frequency of model "upgrades" in that time. It used to [ at least seem ...] like these needed 5 years to upgrade any one of these modeling systems. Christ. Millions of lines of modularized code that is/are conditionally called based upon various physically packaged result sets or grid inputs ...some of which is/are still theoretical ... Now? What, they're able to do that yearly? ...yeah I think cynically about stuff. I mean the scientific process perhaps is glossing as modern breakdown ... being less meticulous in modernity ... impatient. I dunno - digressive commentary here, but it "feels" like we live in a rushed intent, vetting is eroded by ambition. It's not discretely obvious but as a lean? Attitude to 'get it out there,' based on some .. perhaps competition, or perhaps even celebrity ambition ... Private industry is competitive with the NCEP... or the like. So, these institutions may even just be pressured; need to be rushing things to keep up and they can't - catch-22. Why? The Gov can't by circumstance really be agile like private tech... etc..etc... What suffers? more so the 'institutional dependability.' That circuitry leading to a lax systemic error prone product suite... it's probably not exactly right. Ha... But, there is a modicum of uneasiness about these modeling products when you see something like a damping aspect that is 100% dependable, regardless of all circumstances leading, too. You know, if a car always drifts left or right regardless of the terrain of the road, that's usually a sign one needs to check their alignment - I don't recall a single modeled impactful event from that range ...successfully maturing to less than ~ day 5 without being morphed weaker ... It's surreptitiously diminished, too. You don't know how in the hell you ended up with the piece of shit you're looking at. You just sort of realize, 'man, this thing's a piece of shit - how did I get here'.
  13. I didn’t until recently. I wanted to track its accuracy and figured I’d give it the season. so far it’s not impressive with details while seeming reasonably good at general system awareness in space if that makes any sense
  14. It’s possible the guidance was in limbo about which aspect to focus on which was diminishing both ?
  15. I can certainly understand the logic but that sort idea seems more so for after the 10th of March by our climo ?
  16. I mean ...it's not like the general theme is very promising - As a base-line probability every season can go pretty much until April 15 N of NYC - That's the 'probability' canvas by wealth of idiot son for being born N of NYC. From that one subtracts or adds: seasonal trend teleconnectors, air and sea (and this is a 2500 page novel ) 'intangibles' - that undeniable weirdness lol But none of which, subjective or objectively ... suggests this goes to April 15 this time. In fact, March 15 would be unlikely/ lucky - So, some years one can elevate expectations based on those signals... this is not one of those
  17. Low likelihood for positive returns but ... the NORLUN-like feature shows up again for latter Friday into Saturday on this 12z GFS cycle as well
  18. Nope ...same drill ... It'll come in damping to the same bullshit -
  19. Yeah... agreed winter death- math for dummies and deniers: A The AO/PNA/NAO at CPC are warm signaled by March ( am aware that half the AO members attempt to sag back negative, but that at the end of week two but that is utterly undependable). B The antecedent hemispheric footprint La Nina comes with warm spring climo C The HC wants to expand southern heights at all times ...built in at planetary scope ( A + B + C ) / 3 = ? While all that is occurred/ing/set to transpire ... any given model run that shows a general synoptic distinction that is cold and snowy ... must by lucid problem solving skills be construed as incongruous .. Anomalies nested in anomalies happen from time to time.. .. Like, one may observer 6 months in a positive temperature raging hard-on, but it gets really cold for two weeks inside... That two weeks is a negative anomaly, relative to the longer term warmth - ... So, sure, we could "bowling" ball in March.. .But money down? bet at own risk... Problem is? Knee jerk reactions - taken to extreme and absolutes... Some comes in here and sensibly and rationally gives reason to veraciously conclude along a warm correction vector, and we get this steady stream of 'cancel winter' waving. I think folks should almost expect a balmy expansion away from winter at some point next month... arriving at any time really after the next couple weeks. Whether that times for first, 2nd or 3rd week... whatever. I mean I'm already seeing attempts in the numerical guidance. The latitudes beneath roughly 37 deg across ever E of Denver on the 00z Euro... from D4 on, ...that is spring in the south folks. Like this ICON ...These types of thickness plumes are bubbling out of the south at times now - it's not that this may verify unto itself...it is increasing in frequency in modeling ...a manifestation of all the above, and the fact that winter can't f'ing last for ever - get over it.
  20. What does that mean exactly ha ...seriously curious there, what constitutes canceling of winter, in a discrete, comprehensively intelligible definition. I think most would agree that it is cooler now that it will be in July. That is acceptance that it is, in fact, winter.
  21. I frustrated this snark in the other thread, but, I'm done with this model performance cold season - This consummate dampening of amplitude bringing anything, no matter what model either, into near ranges - that fact cannot be more punishing ( and stupid to ignore ) at this point. 22nd is not happening until that can be resolved... otherwise, whatever does, is a pallid reality
  22. I think some portion of that, both at the individual and group psycho-babbledy level, has to do with "drama-conditioning" ... similar to Will's "spoiled rotten..." observation a while ago. It's a conditioning with two constraints: The first is intra seasonal persuasion ... like, getting these snow bombs on December 15 ( ~) both years, ...sets up the "fair objective perspective of J.Q. Public" for keeping it real the rest of the way never The 2nd is a bigger problem with western industrial societies. You know.. ( seein' as you asked have nothing better to do ...lol ) it reminds me of that episode in "Star Trek: The Next Generation," called "The Game." Basically... ( man, that show's sci fi writers really did nail this! ), the plot featured an invasive gaming device that delivered a ultra-powerful addictive pulse of euphoria, through the eyes, of whomever donned a gaming device. It pulsed some neuro- sensitive signal into the eyes...that immediate lit the brain up into an ecstatic "braingasming state" that was an order of magnitude more addictive than heroine, and also ...left the person almost infinitely obsequious to absurd suggestion if it meant getting back to the next pulse... etc...etc.. the latter being the intent of the aliens. This culture of ours...it's a soft, yet eerily smacks as similar with this "pandemic" of e-psychotropic addiction - it's a real thing folks. Weather charts? Same ... yup. It's just a smaller part and parcel of an overall techno glitter cinema at our constant stimulation desire and disposal... We can't seem to turn away for more than mere minutes, where whence real nature moves at us far more quiescent and less 'triggering' ... and that's the trap. It really more than just seems everything we do as a species, in this general 'sociotechnological framework' of modernity ...is caught up in an illusory bubble ...where we think of reality as necessarily matching that steady diet of stimulation. Look out the window ( not you per se - I mean as allegory here ...)... That sun serenity ? That is how fast nature is coming to get you. It's not what we think of, after we've spent an hour brain-soaking, having been submerged in thumb-swipes and mouse click drama crack... bringing the entire world before our eyes, by people that gaslight and an audience willing to be manipulated because once in, the ennui outside the bubble is too miserable. It's like any addiction process - you can escape because the alternative circuitry has been fried by too much, and no longer turns on the joy. Your reality becomes a decision between heaven, and returning to hell - This is all new territory in human history ... It's why I've coined the notion that we are living in the greatest sociological experiment and [probably] evolutionary step since we crawled out of primordial competition as fire controlling iron smelters. It's a fascinating anthropological digression that is equally so, not appropriate for this thread and ... general circuitry of social media, no - Lol. Anyway, we in here suffer the same conditioning ... but we're getting it from two sources. Our lives outside this hobby/engagement/obsession ( whichever...), is bathed as such, but then we take that same membership of civility, and process that attention span through a mid December lust satisfying snow event ... What part of all that is gonna psycho-babble end too well? Particularly when/ if the rest of the year delivers pedestrian normalcy, and the dreaded fear that nature isn't really the same as the virtual reality bath described above.
  23. Mm, last year raged on in a pan-systemic speed issue that was yet more pronounced than this year... We have them this year, too, but we've had a few intervals where that relaxed markedly. That was not the case last year pretty much at any point after the Dec event. The more I think back the frustration's coming back to my memory, and I remember last year as being too fast/speed contaminated in the hemisphere, in fact...the fastest I personally recalled since this velocity saturation shit began 10 or so years ago... And a lot of systems were merely just not given a chance to formulate critical cyclone scaffolding ( cross-sectional jets/ restorative flows mechanics...etc...). Lot of unorganized masses of evaporating failures smeared thru cyclone transit routes... In other words, unknowable because unexposed by virtue of not given the chance. Kind of like diseases that effect older people? 200 years ago... some of these were not known - Christ it predates genetic science too... People lived to the ripe old age of death before Alzheimer's had a chance to kick in (example). Nature's like that - it buries it's right pump bums behind immediate layers. haha ...true though in some sense
