Typhoon Tip Posted February 9 Forgive if this has already been brought up ... but, has anyone taken note of the extraordinary high pressure arming into the nation's midriff ? There's nodal 1048 to 1050 center in western WI this last hour... No wonder we're getting so many fantastic wind gust back east. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rimetree Posted February 9 At this point it looks like a cutter for the 15th but definite differences between euro and GFS placement and strength of that low. Euro is weaker over WNY and GFS winds it up further west. Maybe we can hold onto some of what falls mid-week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ORH_wxman Posted February 9 Most guidance had been showing pretty decent CAD with the late week system until the 12z euro. This is the first run that truly torches us. Reminds me of the storm a few days after 1/20 that annihilated us with 2" of rain and 55F temps. The euro today is almost a carbon copy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Light winds and not too cold and likely plenty of new snow. Any ZR should be groomed out by then. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Typhoon Tip Posted February 9 the pattern being so elongated (anomalous) like that ...with narrow latitude waves racing along ... the spatial-temporal layouts per panel should be taken with a heavier dose of incredulity. We got outside sliders along California while a contiguous broad trough is loaded down wind with s/waves... It's a very unstable look. Talk about buck-shot. Seems pretty ripe for error Not that anyone asked but ... I think the later Tuesday and then Friday wave spaces are essentially correct; but as to the details ...? meh. Particularly in the latter case, as presently laid out ...not something one should be 'disappointed' or 'happy' with one way or the other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ORH_wxman Posted February 9 Euro would rain well into Quebec. But there's some other solutions that are much more CADish that could give some front end snows and interior icing. The trend has been warmer though on the late week system so it needs to reverse to entertain more wintry solutions. The coast has really never been in the game and even interior SNE has been marginal even on the coldest solutions. But CNE/NNE could end up wintry if we go back toward the non-euro solutions.

To be sure, not a high ranking, but I wouldn't be suprised if it were above normal. Our rainers have been hefty ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OceanStWx Posted February 10 30 minutes ago, alex said: How is it that GYX doesn't even mention the possibility of rain late next week? Probably mostly focused on the midweek system. But I didn't say it wouldn't rain on the overnight shift last night: WE STAY ACTIVE BEHIND THAT SYSTEM...WITH ANOTHER TROF FOLLOWING FOR LATE IN THE WEEK. THIS TIME MODEL GUIDANCE AGREES THAT WE DO NOT HAVE A FAVORABLY POSITIONED HIGH PRESSURE TO HOLD COLD IN PLACE. WE DO HAVE DIFFERENCES IN TRACK HOWEVER...WITH THE 09.00Z ECMWF TAKING A SRN TRACK AND WHILE IT IS STILL ON THE MILD SIDE HAS MORE COLD AIR THAN THE 09.00Z GFS. A HIGH POP FORECAST BUT LOW CONFIDENCE PTYPE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A HIGH POP FORECAST BUT LOW CONFIDENCE PTYPE. Yep. But today it reads: "The progressive pattern continues with high pressure building immediately back into the region on Thursday allowing for sunshine and high to reach above freezing. Another chance for snow moves in late Friday into Saturday." I'm not trying to be annoying but it seems weird if anything that today's shift would just ignore last night's AFD, combined with model trends, and not mention the possibility at all. I get the need to focus on this first system, but it's not like anyone is asking for an hour by hour play. With rain being more likely than snow as it seems right now, it seems sloppy not to even mention the possibility. Just some feedback. That's all.

We have the warm temps, but it's a 12 hour weather grid so it takes the average temp. That's just enough to sneak under the threshold for all snow (usually 34).
