If the high is really trying to nose down the Maine coast, it will promote the formation of a mesolow out east...if we don't see the nosing action quite as aggressive, then we may not get the mesolow look and the winds stay more ENE which will keep the icing more confined to elevated interior and a little further north. But often as we get closer, we'll start seeing the mesolow look when you have an aggressive high...and this one looks pretty aggressive. The only drawback is the antecedent airmass is garbage...but the airmass trying to be advected in is definitely not...its legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what we'll have to watch in this one even if you get models insisting on 33F rain....I've seen it enough times where people are shocked to wake up to 27F glaze. This happened on the event last January. I remember telling everyone ignore the model 2m temps...even on the mesos. They had no idea how to handle the advection from the Maine coast...the models were showing 34F and we woke up to 26F after going to bed with temps near freezing. Yup... this is exactly. right this is that, incarnate I think - I mean you can see how the Euro has the 850 mb 'bending' back suddenly toward White Plains and N. NJ around 84 hours in there. I don't think that's saturation/wet-bulbing doing that ..tho some perhaps. Anyway, as that is happening you can see the high pressure is slipping a bit SE of the GFS' beady -eyed obsessive warm intrusion scenario... and the Euro just fits climo and frankly, experience. We'll see.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I was just explaining to pickles...yes, antecedent airmass is a limiting factor, but we are advecting in a colder airmass and with more ease the father north and east one is.

Much cheaper. I don’t get the generator thing. I'd be most concerned from a plumbing standpoint. We have a gas (heating) stove so at least our family room would remain warm. Our main heating is gas/steam heat and we have a tankless hot water system. I imagine the latter two require electricity to run but I'm not sure. 41 minutes ago, ORH_wxman said: We often get a barrier jet that forms in the lowest 1000-2000 feet just east of the Monadnocks and ORH hills...it helps really drive the surface cold southwestward.

Even in GC we managed to get into the cold. Not as much as eastern areas, but I was impressed by how we held below freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 it's funny ... this is completely the wrong thread to mention this, but there is a tenor in this social media that's acting as though we should be suffering some form of winter abandonment - which, ...WRONG. We are above normal Dec climo - if people need to guide their sense of happiness based on constant diet of some metaphoric dystopian cryo-horror drug like a junky that can't get to the better high, than you're just f'n nuts. You're in a great goddamn winter until further f'n notice. Deal with it. hahaha wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
