Slow moving too so that would be a total pack wipeout. Hopefully it’s wrong. Lol that’s brutal. Flooding rains. Phin does well on southerly flow for QPF, gonna fill that well up nicely.

PhineasC Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Welp, can't get much uglier than that. Now we have 5 days for the models to at least cut back on QPF. I am fine with a short torch and some showers. But the flooding tropical rains across the entire northern hemisphere are just stupid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modest high ground of #Scotland #Ireland #NEngland and #Wales could end up with a lot of snow between Christmas and New Year. #onetowatch Throwin' some buns into the fray ... ... there is a little known teleconnector that exist between the British Isles and the NE U.S.... tending to be positively correlated - such that what is happening there, tends to happen here ( or within geographical reasonableness NOT to be stoned for merely advancing the impertinent gesture lol - ) ... heh, heh? who's with me - seriously though, there is. The reason for that is basically just geometric, and the curvature space of the planetary system and normal R-wave distribution coincidentally puts ridging and trough concurrently at either ends of the Atlantic Basin. You know ... so the pattern conducive would also "precipitate" in such a way as to make people groan for making that pun there on purpose because it's fun to annoy them - No but NAO "possibly" emerging ( per GFS operational most guilty ) is an interesting aspect in this... It's like the model is sniffing out; yet at the same time, we can see a supcon of tendency to retrograde the higher latitudes before the NAO really manifests ... And it may be more than sensing this as 'synergistic', because the AO is negative ...and though the mean (GEFs) does blow up and mop end out there into week two, the mean is still heavily negative... So, I just wonder if the speedier flow/plague is interfering with the EPO and NAO's abilities to foment blocking nodes, which given the former seems we should really be seeing more of that. hm. As far as the SSW ...not sure I agree with that... one thing I have noticed about the GFS handling of the thermal/sigma levels out there in time over the last several seasons is that regardless of whether one occurs or not, the model loves to fire off huge hot pulses in the 10 to 30 hPa levels nearing 300 hours+ ..or even D10's... It could be like placeholder in the physics; sort of like it's always prone and the model is sniffing that out, but the trigger fails to pull - We'll see... The QBO is also out of phase for SSWs .. but that's not a deal break either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
