Is there a key. What is the upside down Star Trek thingy, #18? Is that the snow anus symbol? Sorry belongs in banter, to keep this relevant, long range looks Icy...maybe?

There's a chart with descriptions here: https://www.dtn.com/the-power-of-weather-symbols/ #18 means a squall within sight in the last hour, lol. Looks like we may being seeing a lot of #67 being reported area-wide this coming week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsnowman Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 The 6z GFS is interesting, there is more dig to the trough which creates more spacing between the Sun and Mon waves and allows the Mon wave to hug the coast a little more as it heads our way. Is this the start of something. EDIT: meant 18z. Port causing slurring of my fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we are the good kid the coach keeps but the closest he ever gets to any real game action is passing the water bottles down to the kids who are playing while he cheers from the end of the bench. More like the third string left guard on his senior night who is told by his coach that'll he'll play a series of downs in the 4th quarter, but when the 4th quarter rolls around the coach says "sorry kid, we actually have to try to win this game and your third string, so I would have to fire myself if I put you in now." Then the coach turns to your relatives in the stands who came to see you play, and gives them the middle finger. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like our last chance:( You know it has that depressing end of winter feel when a pattern breaks down, but when you take a step back you realize, hell, the end of the gfs run doesn’t even take us to March 1. With all the blocking this year who says we don’t have one more week or so of a decent pattern to work with in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisy Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Imo if you want a colder Thursday system root for Tuesday to be as warm and rainy as possible Ha. The models are seemingly trending to slow down the exit of the tpv more and more. This leads to more phasing and boosts the ridge. While that hurts Tuesday it could help Thursday. This is interesting to me. The cmc, which has lead the way so far with not booting the tpv out barely has it moving on its 18z run. This looks like it would set a decent stage for Thursday but idk...and yes there is an 18z CMC (not rgem), but for some reason only this site has it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 I thought the gfs showed slight moves toward suppressing both systems more. It would fit the seasonal trend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Tuesday would have been even better with a fresher Arctic airmass and a TPV pressing over the top. That’s why I was so optimistic. But the waves Saturday to Tuesday all strung out into one continuous wave train that doesn’t allow the boundary to press east. Thursday could work but it’s a shame, Tuesday would have been an even better setup had the Sunday/Monday wave not popped up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
