Jesse Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I don't remember a winter so boring up to this point. Even 2002-03 had some AR events. This one has been a snoozer so far. Like others, I anticipate we will have 50 degree highs in June and summer won't start til July 5 as per usual.As per usual? We have had scorching early summers lately. We hit 100+ the last two Junes, and June 2015 was one of the most anomalously hot months on record for our region. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Well we know we can write off the next 7-10 days...So that certainly narrows the window. I feel like we have some minor potential in the January 20-25 range still. Then maybe again the first 10-15 days of February...Yeah, there are definitely leads/lags both ways (tropics influence extratropics, extratropics influence tropics), but they’re not always clear-cut and/or modeled properly. The system is full of inertia, etc. There’s almost a “memory” to some of these wavetrain tendencies over time..it’s so fascinating. You might be correct, though. Interesting that most of these mixed QBO analogs have western trough/eastern ridge for February and flip to eastern trough/western ridge for March. However...the few analogs that do have eastern trough/western ridge for February flip to western trough/eastern ridge for March. Looked more closely at these..all of them had active mid/late winter MJOs, and the reason for the differences in pattern timing were related to the location of the MJO and state of the stratospheric PV at the time (since the MJO is heavily influenced by the stratosphere, and vice-versa the stratosphere is heavily influenced by the MJO).

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I think it depends on how deep/slow this MJO wave is going forward. A deeper wave = a slower wave and a deeper -PNA through the rest of January, but it also means a deeper/slower wave when it reaches the WPAC and probably another western ridge/eastern trough in February as a result. A shallower wave probably precludes an exciting event this month/less -PNA in the near term, but it also implies a weaker WPAC event in February and a faster orbit through the unfavorable domains..so maybe a return to the favorable Indo-Pacific domain my mid/late February. I may be missing something, but I don't see really any potential in the next 15-20 days for the west. Aside from slightly cooler than normal conditions and maybe some decent mountain snows.

Yeah, we've had early starting summers for the past 5 years, the last time we really did have one start in July was 2012. With a decent Nina going right now we have a good chance of a wetter and cooler than average Feb-June period... perfect for setting up our September blowtorch!

This has been the case for a very long time. We always have ther perfect setup come March/April. I have been saying this for years with sarcasm but some honesty in my early fall posts on here but in the end it is a reality and super repeatable year after year. We can about write this winter off unless you're into slop and melting/marginal snow events. This is and WILL not be a modified arctic pattern in time to mean anything this year. This is becoming more and more clear and something we just have to accept as what is normal here.

Phil Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 What exactly is a -QBO?The QBO (quasi-biennial oscillation) is a 20-25 month cycle in the zonal winds/temperatures above the equatorial tropopause (technically defined by said variations over the equatorial Pacific). These variations in zonal winds start at the stratopause and downwell towards the tropopause, where they alter the thermodynamics that govern the temperature and height of the tropopause, before dissipating. So obviously, the QBO affects the behavior of tropical convection around the globe, year-round, through its modulation(s) of the spatial dynamics and overall integral of static stability in the deep tropics. A negative (easterly) phase of the QBO denotes easterly zonal winds above the equatorial tropopause, as well as a colder/raised tropopause with deeper convection in the ITCZ, constrained modestly closer to the equator, which is found to modestly contract and intensify the Pacific Hadley Cell. 2 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back, I have a much greater appreciation for that event in hindsight. I pulled off a 23/13 with 5" of snow on the 6th...That was only my 3rd winter up here...I don't think I realized how abnormal that was...

High Desert Mat! Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 The QBO (quasi-biennial oscillation) is a 20-25 month cycle in the zonal winds/temperatures above the equatorial tropopause (technically defined by said variations over the equatorial Pacific). These variations in zonal winds start at the stratopause and downwell towards the tropopause, where they alter the thermodynamics that govern the temperature and height of the tropopause, before dissipating. So obviously, the QBO affects the behavior of tropical convection around the globe, year-round, through its modulation(s) of the spatial dynamics and overall integral of static stability in the deep tropics. A negative (easterly) phase of the QBO denotes easterly zonal winds above the equatorial tropopause, as well as a colder/raised tropopause with deeper convection in the ITCZ, constrained modestly closer to the equator, which is found to modestly contract and intensify the Pacific Hadley Cell.English dude, English.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Looks like a TON of mountain snow starting the middle of next week. 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

High Desert Mat! Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I cried like a baby because I got warm nosed about 24 hours before SLE mixed out in February 2014. Looking back, I have a much greater appreciation for that event in hindsight. I pulled off a 23/13 with 5" of snow on the 6th...That was only my 3rd winter up here...I don't think I realized how abnormal that was...That winter was one for memories here. Dec of '13 tied our all time record low of -27 and it was brutal. Then Feb of '14 came in and it snowed off and on for five days and I recorded 33" in my backyard which then it turned very cold and also tied the all time record low once again. Crazy winter. My buddy was on his way back from Chicago during the big snowstorm here and couldn't make it in to PDX due to zr and snow there. Great memories.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Unfortunately I don't see much snow below 2000' based on what is currently being modeled. However, the airmass is cold enough there could locally be snow in convergence zone areas, or if we get an anafront.
