Now it’s just a 7/10 split so to speak. Sure, but they also go hand-in-hand given the background environment. Without the precip rates, we are fighting the relatively warm temps that would lead to non-accum snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something we never have to concern ourselves with here, On occasion, A little OES can happen or some of these IVT end up here but not often.

It was a marginal air mass further south and with crappy rates it would be hard to accumulate anyways, Would have needed this Northern stream s/w to dig further south and tap some of that southern stream moisture as a surface low got going to cool the air mass and throw precip back west, A couple runs had showed a similar scenario but that shipped sailed.

Same here, though OES/IVT is also a non-starter as well. We did get 2" from a Norlun when living in Gardiner - 1992 IIRC - while PWM had 11" and Kennebunkport over 20. However, an all-pow 2" would be nice in a season where all the snow event seem to end with unfrozen precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 That is what a fast zonal jet from Pacific to Atlantic does , no good last moment changes wrt phasing / digging . Disjointed weak crap. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The only way Southern New Engalnd was going to cash in on this was only if the Northern stream cooperated and dove the SW underneath us. As long as the Pacific dominates like this, phasing, favorable hits, and timing of cold air will be hard to come by. Need that Pacific/MJO/PNA to become favorable.

ORH_wxman Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 If PAC NW troughs were a massive issue, we'd probably eliminate more than half of our La Niña snow events. Fast flow is def an issue for amplifying systems but there's obviously a host of other factors at play that determine whether we score or not.

It’s impossible to make blanket statements because downstream conditions dictate the outcome. It's possible to get a severe storm in practically any pattern. I'd rather not take my chances with a pattern that persistently brings storms into the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
