theoretical question here - volcanic boom and models


Recommended Posts

quick question here. a bit more theoretical, but also maybe affecting the storm about to loop up and hit the eastern great lakes and the northeast. Given that explosion in the volcano down in Tonga overnight, I'm seeing reports of sonic booms heard from it as far away as the south coast of Alaska, and pressure waves from the blast being seen on barometers all the way into southern Ontario and Quebec, upstate NY, and New Orleans. And I'm sure plenty of those ripples are also aloft.

So, what will those pressure waves do if they're picked up by the models? and what could those waves do to the synoptic environment of the upcoming east coast storm given how far they've propagated? could it actually shift the path of the storm directionally just a little bit in a way models may not pick up?
