Coastal Storm Potential - Jan 11-12 II


Baroclinic Zone

Recommended Posts

No I think there's people that take things out of context. I could say what I think which is that the UKMET is largely way east, the GEFS/NAM just trended significantly east and the 18z NOGAPs trended east too even though it wasn't a hit to begin with but I'm for some reason afraid of offending people over weather. Why dont you leave the comedy to Seinfeld and we stick to the weather during the storm?

I also wonder why there is no talk of the potential for an inverted trough again this time.

LOL, No, we full time residents of the SNE thread are a jovial bunch and enjoy playful banter throughout the year. This time period is BEFORE the storm not during. Also, if you're seeing trends that lead you to believe this storm will fizzle or be OTS make the call. After accusing Phil of making bold predictions only after the event has passed I'm sure you wouldn't want to be guilty of the same thing. I have read an immense amount of analysis from Pro mets today and I don't think anyone is talking about this storm sh iting the bed. Sam has expressed some concern about a 'screw zone' with a center leap but the consensus seems to be this is a fairly straight forward show. Again, as I have said before I actually am interested in your thoughts and as a true proponent of free speech I would never seek to silence your or anyone's thoughts. However, I am not afraid to point out that you seem to have a penchant for looking for all the ways a system can fail. Who knows, perhaps you will be the one that nails this as a failure but in the face of overwhelming opinions to the contrary I'll stick with the idea that this will indeed be a major system. Please, keep ferreting out possible problems/pitfalls with this and any other systems that come our way. That's what an open forum is for , the free expression of thoughts and ideas. Just don't be surprised when people choose to comment on your comments. It's part of the game. This isn't a matter of life and death, keep it in perspective. Have fun Scott and Think Snow !!

Well guys have fun, here. I probably won't post again until I am in Mississippi in two months. I hope the rest of the winter treats everyone well. Now that I am leaving on Tuesday, but really I won't have internet access tomorrow afternoon on, I just want to say that Cape COd, MA might see a three foot snowstorm this winter. Heads up Phil. Lol

Good luck man, I plan on enlisting after I finish my Bachelors next Spring, hope everything goes well for you.

And again putting words in my mouth. All I said was at 18z there was a shift east. I think I put about 25 disclaimers on it saying it was re the 18z models. The problem is when someone takes it out of context.

I just watched a few systems fail the same way. I'm not saying that's the case here, I'm just saying it's understandable that the 18z all shifted east based on what they did at 500. Doesn't mean it's a trend, going to happen or is a forecast. I specifically said this storm has distinct differences even in a bad scenario being further north and having much more moisture. There's no talk of it crapping the bed. It's 2+ days away and the one thing the last few weeks has been showing us is that is about 24 hours outside of the model comfort zone.

EDIT: I don't care where it snows, here north south east whatever. I get really tired of being accused of having a bias. If it snows in ski country I go skiing. If it snows here I go sledding, I don't even really keep track of how much snow falls in terms of climo or anything else. I don't put ice on my snowpack to keep it around or keep track of how many days I have it. Could care less, I don't have this attachment to snow that others have.

just wondering, i would assume mixing up to the southern halves of Bristol and PYM counties, but wasn't sure if it would go any further than that verbatim, thnx

This is a very cold system so to mix you'd almost have to have it come much closer. Outer cape..biggest risk and some risk east of the canal but I think PYM north and west are fine.

Do you think this, being, from what I understand, a more straightforward setup (less than 30 Ls spread over the country, or whatever) will allow for the models to handle it better?

Hey good luck...stay safe...and thanks for your service in protection and support of all of us!

take care, talk to you soon!!

Be safe and take care!

Thanks to everyone. This thread is awesome and I hope to continue posting after my experience at USAF basic training. I will be given the privledge to use my laptop in Tech School after the next two months and hope to do the best I can in training to pass and become a permanent USAF airman. Hope for the continued success this winter.

I think we'll have clarity tonight on whether the 18z was a trend or not. The NAM so far has higher heights vs the 18z in the east but it is handling some aspects more similar to the 18z v 12z. Just not sure where it ends up.

EDIT: BTW the 0z DID shift that old m/l center west so that was a real deal change the 18z's caught again at least through 30. I have no idea which way it goes from here, could be anything from more extreme to even flatter! 36 is just coming up now, it's 36-42 where it's kind of going to be decided.

Adding my wishes....really really enjoyed reading your posts and like all the energy you bring to the discussion. Since the last storm didn't work out to be your going away present, how about we dedicate this one to you? Even better we speed it up 12 hours, you get stranded, experience the blizzard and then have tales to tell your new mates.

Best to you
