GFS phases in the Canadian SW to the SS one, every other model leaves them separate. where is that weenie thing about the GFS being better in the northern stream in Ninas.... 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shad Posted Thursday at 10:09 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:09 PM AI GFS looked to be an improvement. Not sure if anybody has Snow maps from it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted Thursday at 10:12 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:12 PM 1 minute ago, psuhoffman said: I’m not a met but imo it’s a relatively delicate and not even that major of an interaction that have a huge impact down the road. Yea we notice it because we’re looking for it but if this interplay between those two SW wasn’t directly causing this dichotomy with a possible HECS we would never notice! If we simplify it it’s putting more energy into the lead wave in a two wave interaction and it’s a delicate balance where just enough tips the scale and you get a cascading effect later. That said it’s obviously still likely the GFS is the wrong one. However it does handle NS features a bit better. When it does rarely beat the euro it’s in situations like this. But I can’t remember a single example when it was totally all alone like this at this range and won. That said some stuff did make mini step towards it so I guess anything’s possible. But I wouldn’t bet anything I care about on it. Haha, I was going to say, isn't there some general "rule" (weenie rule) that the GFS supposedly handles NS energy better? But in all seriousness, obviously these last two ridiculous solutions are simply not going to occur (we wish, but let's be realistic here!). It's out on its own in terms of that extreme. However, I wonder if we can hedge toward thinking that maybe a less than perfectly ideal interplay between the two SWs can STILL get us a pretty damned decent event. Going back to those images you showed before with the IVT setup, it seems that while some model runs shifted it east, it was also fairly wide? Wonder if that could also be a good thing.

In the 12Z run, it kind of jumped to the closer one along the coast. Where does it go this time? Also, not sure if other models had that dual structure, and not totally sure what's causing it other than something with the phasing. I was starting to wonder if that dual low was the beginning of a cave to other guidance with the low further east. 12z didn’t have this, it was all in on a tucked low. Now we see it having one foot on other guidance, and other foot on what it showed for 12z. I think it rides the fence between these two camps for 1-2 more runs, then falls to the main camp along with other guidance. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM i could see where a slight adjustment in the northern stream could take the GFS from 20 inches to 4 in one run....but that could also happen inversely with the euro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interstate Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM You can see that PSU was trolling by keep posting maps about the IVT during the whole PBP of the GFS. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s face it, the euro model suite is all that matters at this range. Need that to shift west very soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted Thursday at 10:16 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:16 PM My flight leaves at 12:35pm tomorrow. I need this resolved by 12z.

The track of the 6z run reminded me a lot of a storm in the 60s that gave the Delmarva 20-28” but also have my area 20” and I was wondering why that run only had 10” here. Ya know how. I went back and looked at the coop data from the past storm. Delmarva got 24” from 2.5qpf. My area got 20” from 1.2 qpf. The gfs run was showing me getting 10” from 1.2qpf. Because it was so damn warm at the surface! 2 degrees colder (which is about what it was then) and it would have been 15-20” here from ratios! Usually further west makes up for less QPF with ratios but not if it’s 33 degrees! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had plenty of cold this winter. You know that. The issue is we cant combine the precip and the cold so maybe thats the climate change normal. Cold and precip cant exist together in the Mid Atlantic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
