EHoffman Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 10 minutes ago, NovaWahoo said: As a mostly lurker from WrightWeather (was that it?) to Eastern to here, I just assumed Ji was like the Dread Pirate Roberts. He's not the REAL Ji. The REAL Ji is retired somewhere with a lot of snow. Perhaps Tahoe. But he picked a new "Ji" to replace him who picked a new Ji to replace him. Yeah retired to Western Loudoun Co more like. And WrightWeather what a pull, I remember that site but I never was active on it. I started in the early days of Eastern. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The storm isn't necessarily in NAM range, but all the features that will tell us whether it goes OTS or up the coast will be in place by then, like you said.

Looks like a really weak clipper that barely makes it over the mountains. Other models have it, but almost none of them have any appreciable precip on the lee side of the mountains.

Once that’s ingested into the modeling dataset, it’s going to make alllll the difference… Well there are two main pieces. First one is the northern stream wave currently over baffin bay, this one is supposed to retrograde to the hudson bay (thanks to the GL block) and do a loop-a-loop there before it swings down into the conus. The southern piece is now in the midst of a fast pac jet just west of the aleutians. It’ll become a new GOA low, but a piece of it will break off, enter the conus tomorrow or Wednesday, and become the southern stream s/w that eventually phases with the northern piece. Clear as mud? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomz Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Yeah, ICON ends up much more positively tilted than say 18z AIFS, resulting in weaker cyclogenesis and less northward motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
