NorthArlington101 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Well the AIGFS has some overrunning only 12 days out… temps cooperate. Generally 2-3” with more further south. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about doubles the totals of earlier runs across the metros. I really want to see something overperform in terms of precip at some point - would feel a lot better about any future snow hopes if we could see something juice up and hit at gametime - so let’s start that this weekend I say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormy Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 A disturbing ECMWF that has dropped from 1.19" rainfall to .69" from 00z to 06z. A 43% drop in 1 run is not good! Maybe 06 was a fluke and will return at 12z? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I should probably drop this in banter because I really don’t know what I’m talking about, but I’m looking forward to the release of the monthly ENSO discussion in a few days. Fingers crossed that the Nina is heading to, and may get to neutral for the rest of winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get a good idea on the short term at this link with the warming temps under the equatorial Pac and Cfs2 wind anomalies. I doubt we see much help this year with a westerly wind burst progged around the 1st of February. Probably too little, too late for this year, but positive for next (famous last words!) https://www.stormsurf.com/page2/links/ensocurr.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably too little, too late for this year, but positive for next (famous last words!) https://www.stormsurf.com/page2/links/ensocurr.html Unfortunately there is no evidence a nina weakening during the winter period actually helps us at all. I understand where this narrative comes from. Nina is bad...so nina ending must be good right? Problem is there is no actual evidence of this. Now it's an incredibly small sample size so take it for what it is, but the last 2 examples and the only 2 in the last 30 years where a nina faded during the winter were two of our worst least snowy winters ever, 2016-17 and 2022-23. Going back 50 years there have been 5 examples and not a single one turned snowy because of the nina fading. 2 and 5 are small samples so maybe its just a fluke but I tend to think the issue is with 2 other factors not being weighted in the "nina bad so nina ending good" logic. 1) there is a lag to enso impacts on the pattern 2) enso neutral isn't necessarily any better anymore. This doesn't get talked about much but the most significant cause of our snowfall degradation is what has happened to enso neutral winters. From 1900 to 1995 enso neutral winters were significantly snowier than cold enso winters, and the odds of an above normal snowfall season in enso neutral was significantly higher, and almost as high as Nino winters. However in the last 30 years 6 of the 7 enso neutral winters were below average snowfall at BWI and the median snowfall for enso neutral is actually no better than nina years during that period. So if you factor in those 2 things...nina fading to neutral during the winter doesn't really do us any good because of the lag and the fact the enso neutral isn't any better anymore. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
