aldie 22 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 What's interesting is if the most skilled member is the op and most believe it's pretty flawed why is there faith in a bunch of members who are even less skilled? Who knows but all I know is 8 times out of 10 extreme cold doesn't materialize. If this thing slides it won't be because of the cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bncho Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Central NC has the best signal on the 18z GEFS, about 50% more than DC and Baltimore. This is a decent FWIW tho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowenOutThere Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 1 hour ago, bncho said: Oh man, I'm getting... Reveal hidden contents late-February 2025 ...vibes. Just to make it clear, I am not saying we will fail this time, I am still incredibly optimistic. I'm only making the connection because of the amount of hype we have right now. If this fails it will do so differently (though not completely so) than last Feb. Last Feb was a classic coastal look that ended up getting squashed to hell by the PV coming in overtop instead of phasing with it. @psuhoffman I believe ended up making a great breakdown of that scenario where you either get a phase and it mixes or you get squashed and it is suppressed. This is not that. This is instead a the question of if vorticity can eject from out west and not get squashed by a strong cold push. We need to watch for 1. the vorticity to actually eject 2. for the cold push to not kill it. IMO its a wait and see game but I don't particularly love relying on vorticity to eject and beat fresh cold air. That said we got plenty of time to see how it shakes out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 13 minutes ago, mitchnick said: Meh...Gefs always follow the leader operational. At least more often than not. The GEFS is known for being under dispersive more so than other ensemble systems, but I think there have been improvements. To a degree all ensembles are going to tend to follow the op for a given run.. and we have many more runs to go for this potential event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 9 minutes ago, Heisy said: 18z gfs vs 12z euro Ai, look at the difference In confluence strength. . Interesting. I'll also add that the ridging along the West Coast is also notably different. Though that surely results in the downstream effects too of course. In the Euro AI, that ridge points more directly up the coast (more north-south) whereas the GFS has it protruding more inland toward the Pac NW and southwest Canada. I believe that the AI version with the ridge tilted as it is, allows for the main downstream trough in the central/eastern US to broaden more rather than digging so much in the east, giving the southwest trough more of a chance to turn the corner better or at least not get squashed into oblivion.

Not every day we get 1050 highs rolling in south from canada Yes-and also the European model has had this GFS model for lunch for going on to winter seasons now it hasn't even been close. GFS has been woefully bad, especially outside of 72 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
