C'mon man, methuen hit the 4 1/2 inch mark yesterday! .....more than double 2 inches. I even saw a plow driving around methuen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Merrimack valley area they could have fished while standing along the banks of a river...and lately I have noticed people doing that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sey-Mour Snow Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 GEFS got quite a bit snowier for next Thursday and next weekend. Snowy signal for both events with a very sharp gradient increasing snow amounts with latitude. Some things to keep us interested at least until we figure out what happens beyond that with possible trough in west and placement of SE ridge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Significant trend to more suppressed track/Miller B response in this 12z GEF's lends confidence to the operational GFS... GGEM also followed suit re the 20th. I don't have a problem with this, given that it is on the interface of the ... a pattern change that is admittedly in trouble, but we are likely to at least register some +PNAP ...if perhaps with a split flow variety. That combined with a slumping NAO does support a southerly track with that middling S/W ... The event it self might cash in on CC pwat and an over ploduction.ha. either way, riding flat waves over SE ridging can pay off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be unanimous agreement on the 12z runs (still pending Euro) of next Thursday being more favorable than prior runs. We'll see if that sticks....they are all showing some well-timed confluence up north forcing it south of us, which is something we haven't been able to get this winter at all. But sometimes it just take a little good-timing in a crap pattern to get off the mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking from memory over the years of modest frontogentically charge mid level collocated over the top of an impressive isentropic lift axis. Nice leaf expansion on sat.. Those can layout a band of S+ that definitely would not be seen at this range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Euro hasn't exactly been a beacon of trustworthiness when it's an outlier at day 6-7. I'd rather it show a flatter solution, but it doesn't get the benefit these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It first showed it as a coastal and then backed it up to a cutter. Let's hope this goes the other way 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather it show a flatter solution, but it doesn't get the benefit these days. It's an extraordinary run to look at... That 144 through 168 is almost comical. And I'm not even saying it won't happen that way, but at 144 ... you look at the 500 mb isohypses layout out and there is no way the flow across Canada would physically allow a system to cut. So the Euro reconstructs the entire circulation manifold ..thus finding a pathway to do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Euro is pretty close though...it just misses the timing on the northern shortwave in Canada....still a good hit for NNE. That system is a pure timing system....it doesn't have this great antecedent airmass or anything like that...its simply "can the main shortwave time itself with the Canadian shortwave so that the resulting confluence can force it underneath SNE"....that's really all we're trying to do here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah when I was looking at it around 138 hours, I was thinking it might be a decent solution, but then it just kept rolling up into the lakes....it does eventually get forced east, but too late for SNE....big hit for Whites over into Maine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I don’t get the GEFS angst. Sure we risk cutters but we may also cash in. Canada is frigid and the pattern should be active. I’ll take the risk over the dogshit we’ve been in for the past few weeks… 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately the mid and upper air charts don't lend to very good sfc appeals - but then the surface charts have snow chances. I think the pattern change is real...and the models are just fighting desperately to avoid admitting it. hahaha... No but that's not that uncommon with southern height walls while cold loads to the N. I've seen 10" of snow fall along Rt 2 with 70 F NJ in March. So long as we're in a spring pattern seemingly eternally.. heh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you can see how that would work. Gfs is a nice display of that. I share the same caveats with the euro. I just hope this time it continue its struggles.

Plenty cold to our north. I’m not the biggest fan of that H5 look over the west if that ridging doesn’t not occur. That’s a deep trough. We’ll need some nao help that. Luckily some of the TPV is to our north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
