Eskimo Joe Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago 11 minutes ago, psuhoffman said: I have nothing to add regarding any of the specific threats, they are all too far out for me to waste time on run to run permutations. But my general thoughts regarding the overall pattern is that it's been pretty rare for us to time up a good h5 pattern with our snowiest climo period (which is by far mid Jan to mid Feb). One of our problems, among many, over the last 10 years as been that our best chances for snow have come outside that period. We've been fighting for scraps along the edges of the cold season in many years. Right now the pattern across all guidance for the second half of January looks very favorable. It's supported by tropical forcing. If we get an extended cold pattern from mid January into Feb I'll take my chances. It won't help us with the STJ, we're going to have to deal with phasing and NS issues and it will still be a struggle, but one we have a much better chance of winning if we get a good pattern timed up during our snowiest climo period. Very well said. You mentioned something last year that really hit home to me. There are times when we have a workable, or even favorable pattern for snow and we miss out due to bad luck, etc. That's upsetting, but fine. Then you have the years where it's Pacific Puke™ all winter and nothing can save us. Those are heart wrenching. It appears that we are set up for success over the next month and it's all down to luck. That's fine, we just want to be in the game. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what this upcoming time period looks loaded. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bncho Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago The CMC is cold fluff verbatim. Likely would've been an 8-12" deal if the run ran a little longer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different solutions to all the possible events vs Ops though. At this point I think the only real thing to note is that we have a deep trough over the eastern US and several shortwaves that appear poised to dive in over a west coast ridge which may (or may not) help amplify the broad trough into distinct storm systems. Otherwise we just have to wait and see because (and I may be wrong) I doubt this will be a great setup for models to get right with more than even 4 days in advance.

bncho Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago -EPO/+TNH is a highly volatile pattern where even a slight difference can lead to the difference between a raging SE ridge and Jan 2014 cold. IMO the pattern looks like Jan 2014 at this juncture, don't think we'll get a big dog but multiple 2-4", 3-6" events are on the table, maybe even a 6-10" event. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oof didn't see the image of all the panel members, but it looks like under 2-3 legitimate hits for the 15th storm. Upper level progression is quicker, closer to 0Z result than 6Z which was a general improvement. Seems like the Ridge out west is more robust and pushing our trough along faster than we would want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah going to be volatile tracking for sure. Jan-Feb 2014 had most events pop up in short to medium range. @Bob Chillmentions this. But the more shots on goal we get, and at peak climo as @psuhoffman said, the better chance we get. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
