Central PA - Early December

Recommended Posts

Don't make anything of any kind of any NAM run. Last Feb it was showing 6 feet of snow in a part of NJ that ended up with 3 to 5 in. at the end with the 2/8 storm. Just forget that model.

 

The one thing I think the NAM does well is to gradually but consistently trend the right direction. Which is why I'm encouraged that the 00z run is further east than the 18z run was.

Based on the GFS ensemble spread and the biggest difference I can see between the west and suppressed solutions by hr 24 (the shortwave ridge over the Yukon and Northwest Territories), it seems like the 00z might be continuing on the road to suppressed-ville.

 

Still really early in the run to say for sure, though.

Then again, the southern system seems to be noticeably further northeast by hr 45. Maybe that means something.

 

EDIT: Based on the ridge over BC at hr 42, I'd say it's still going to be suppressed, but a little bit less so. But based on the position of the cutoff, I'm not so sure.
