Thats so weird though that the models are the complete opposite of what the MJO is implying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallsLake Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 12z GFS is continuing to show a little snow for N. NC this Friday. Of course I'm right on the line of getting snow or rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 A 50/50 like that couple with the big AK block is usually a good precursor for winter events...to bad so much troughing in the west though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Indices looking a little better today: PNA - Looks to basically stay positive in the short term and then go strongly positive (+1) in the LR AO - Looks to go strongly negative in the LR NAO - Goes strongly positive in mid range and could head for neutral in LR Could see the LR models show more cold in upcoming runs. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/daily_ao_index/teleconnections.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowNiner Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I think the main problem is we're going to lose the -EPO. Instead of ridging near Alaska we've got a big ole vortex/low that is just going to have a counter clockwise spin and pump in pacific air into the conus. So even if we get a trough in the east, the air is just not very cold and I don't think it's going to work for us. It's ironic because when Alaska goes blue, we finally start getting a -AO and maybe a bit of -NAO, but it's blocking cool air instead of cold IMO. Winter is over if we can't lose the blue over Alaska/SW canada IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Take my word for it, extremely volitile solutions on modeling for Feb 8-10 we will get lucky I'm sure again with a fantasy snow, just depends on how the energy phases and what the lakes low ends up wanting to be (sub 1000 bomb or not, deep cold or not, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be one system or there will be more separation of the two. Just seem wacky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
