Discussion For The 2018-19 Autumn & Winter Seasons


Recommended Posts

Yeah, that other outlook (the one where we're in the Casino) had the NE as the "snow factory" and I believe it. Not that they've been so snow starved in recent years either, but they've got the warm ocean going for them whenever the SE Ridge breaks down enough to allow cold east of the Appalachians. There's still a wild-card that the GL's may do better than in past analog winters tho, so stay tuned..

Interesting Winter shaping up buddy. Could be one wild ride for us.

To add to the greatness of the soon to come winter, here is another outlook. Firsthand weather is a pretty solid group of guys. It's nice to be in the "B" region, I'll say that. ;)

OKwx we may have something to talk about this winter !

 

I can pass on the ice, but nice to be in the snow region. I'm going to stock up! :)

This winter is starting to sound like the "Great Winter of 2018-19" is on it's way very very soon.

Hope it rivals "The Great Winter" of: 1899-1900.

Notice how none of the winter forecasts ever have the Northeast in for a snowless winter. It just doesn't make sense for these facebook pages and blogs given that 95% of their base consists of snow weenies in NYC and Boston, they'll unsubscribe when the forecast doesn't suit their fantasy. I've personally quit looking at long range/seasonal forecasts all together and it's relieving to say the least.

Yep. There are some people who you will never see forecast a bad winter.

It's not "in the books" yet. I would not be surprised if that "snow factory" zone is extended further west and/or shifted further west. If you read their text, they cite the dominant neutral to positive AO/NAO combo as continuing thru winter (favors us back in the GL's) with "bouts" of neg NAO shifting action S and/or East at times. Other sources mention the late-blooming Nino means the early part of winter (mid-Nov to mid-Jan) would be focused back in the Midwest/Lakes and the EC's winter would be focused on mid-Jan to mid-March, possibly we all get another month of fun into mid-April like back in '82.

Do you want a bad winter? :lol: Mega-Nino incoming for Hoosier's back yard. I don't know if you could find an analog winter (let alone a set) that gave every region east of the Rockies a great season. Always ends up some zone gets screwed. '81-82 may be close, but I wasn't paying attention to how The Plains did that year? I know Minny got rocked!

 

This season has rare potential to make most happy and their forecast reflects that. You can nickel-n-dime your way to above avg snowfall if you have robust and lingering cold. Just on longevity of season if not on active storm tracks like we enjoyed in 07-08, 08-09, & 13-14

I'd like a great winter. However, I'm at the point where I pretty much couldn't care less if it's not a great winter. I don't live in a prime snow location and I don't do winter sports. Crappy winters used to bother me a lot when I was a kid.

Eurasian Snowcover extent shot out of a canon during the last days of October, as well as, the entire Northern Hemisphere....

Not sure that hurts our cause tbh. Seems we had a good deal of cross-polar flow during '13-14. I believe that the S Hemi had a pretty harsh winter. Might be the N Hemi's turn. Dr. Cohen's outlook may be in jeopardy.

In his defense, he stated that his model may be to warm and will have to make some final adjustments.  I'm almost certain he will based on what he's seeing is happening with the PV thus far.

Folks seem to forget that it's the -EPO/+PNA that delivers the cold, it's a -NAO that locks it in. -NAO very useful for storm purposes if blocking is in the right place, but without the Pacific pattern being right you could get a -NAO & a lot of warmth like 2011-12.  So, here's to Pacific delivering the goods! And it appears NAO may have more negative bouts than first anticipated...hopefully

For us older folks on the forum- how about the following song from Black Sabbath being our song for the upcoming winter?   "Snowblind" released in the Fall of 1972 says it all for us winter freaks-- 

 

 

 

What you get and what you see Things that don't come easily  (models vs reality)

Feeling happy in my pain Icicles within my brain.

Something blowing in my head  (not enough sleep)Winds of ice that soon will spread

Down to freeze my very soul Makes me happy, makes me cold

My eyes are blind but I can see The snowflakes glisten on the tree The sun no longer sets me free

I feel the snowflakes freezing me Let the winter sunshine on Let me feel the frost of dawn Build my dreams on flakes of snow

Soon I’ll feel the chilling glow Don't you think I know what I'm doing Don't tell me that it's doing me wrong You're the one that's really the loser

This is where I feel I belong Kiss the world with winter flowers Turn my days to frozen hour

s Lying snowblind in the sun

Will my ice age ever come?

Nice firsthand account from Canton, OH (not even the hardest hit region) of the '78 bomb. Such a massive and incredible beast of a storm. Glad this story ended happily I will add.

 

 

Memoir Reflection:   The ice was thick and slick as the previous rains froze fast and hard. Inches of snow and winds followed rapidly as I laid in my hospital bed after giving birth to my first child. I was in the precious moments with my new baby girl and oblivious to how truly dangerous it was outside. But then for the first time of my husbands career at Con-Rail, was called out for emergency help to keep the trains moving. For they held the many valuable resources to sustain people"s needs. When he showed concern, I knew it was bad. It took a lot to make him concerned and he was very much so for the trip home. Soon the day came to be released and I was fully aware of the dangers now. I asked my Doctor if we could stay another day and he approved it. However, he stated that this is no guarantee that it could be worse travel by tomorrow?  It now became our decision to gamble according to the forecast. I was terrified to take our newborn ( Shawnna ) on these roads from Aultman Hospital to Paris Ohio.      People died walking from stranded cars.... People died staying in their cars. I begged for an ambulance to take us home safely, to no avail.  If only I had a video of the minus 60 degree wind chill winds gusting against our very old sand filled pick up truck with chains that he put on all four tires. Chains that dug into the 4 inches of ice beneath us.  Looking down at my precious newborn daughter crying, I said to myself, I knew you were too good to be true.  As I feared the worst and prayed for God to keep us on the road.  The flour like powder blinded our path to be able to see what was road and what was drifts as high as 6 feet. Randomly placed due to the blizzard winds.  If a car was on the road you didn't know it until you were right on top of them. No lanes were designated on this trip, just wherever you could drive was all that mattered. One thing I remember wishing was a way to call for help if we did get blown into a ditch.. Today a cell phone video of our trip home would have been all over the news, it was so terrifying) .... This is the true meaning for having a cell phone in 1978. .  . I know for me I would have felt safer. Needless to say we made it home in 2 plus hrs of nerve racking, blood pressure rising, hard breathing fear. Covering with layers of blanks over our baby and cautious steps into the old but very warm farm house, was an exhausted sigh of relief for both of us. " Home Sweet Home"                                                                       Cassie J. Volzer

Interesting take on the NAO in this study for those concern:

 

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-00353-y

 

Also mentioned (by EC weenies) is that the SAI across Eurasia was slow starting but finished strong, and somewhere there may be a parallel correlation as to how the winter plays out along the Atlantic Seaboard. Will be interesting to see. DT has gone bonkers with a 200% snowfall total for basically the entire MA thru NE

Something to pass the time while we await #realwinter storms. Would've been perfect if it included Buffalo '77 and the two 1978 blizzards. Should do a sequel on those me thinks!

Something to pass the time while we await #realwinter storms. Would've been perfect if it included Buffalo '77 and the two 1978 blizzards. Should do a sequel on those me thinks!

Man, we need a blizzard like the one shown in the video above for this upcoming Winter.

WxBell updated their winter call. Hard to argue the snow map, lol. His/their line of above/below normal runs dead-nuts with my own, as much as I'd like to be further into the AN zone, hehehe

Gotta say.....this Autumn has been pretty wild so far. Lots of moisture, wind and below normal temps. Very few days have been above normal. Also, a lot of stratus on none-precip days. And I cant leave out the 1.2" of snow I received on October 14th! I hope this wild ride keeps on trucking into the Winter.

LOL, this is prob the craziest run I've seen off the Brazilian....#nuclearwinter...FWIW, its been increasingly advertising more runs of a cold and active winter around these parts.

Euro Weeklies are advertising a December full of NW flow and warmth. Here's to hoping that all of the members that are advertising it are dead wrong cuz I am NOT gonna put up with another bad December after such a good Fall.

Did you notice how it trended colder for Week 3 to close out Nov and open Dec??  Its really having a terrible time in the NE PAC and as you get deeper into winter, this feedback becomes a big deal.

I think we get far fewer warm days than cold ones from here on. Parts of December look pretty wild to me.

 

In other news, real accumulating snow is looking more likely than not over the next 5-6 days here. Understand last nights euro 00z had higher amounts for me in the means than the control. That's usually a sign of great consistency. I'll take an inch of snow in November. I don't think I'm going to have to worry about storms hitting me this year.

Yeah I did and I'm hoping those trends continue.

This is true. It's almost like it doesn't shorten the wavelengths of the pattern at the appropriate speed or something. I'd give it time to actually digest the whole scale of rapid changes before running out much over 2 weeks on it right now. Thought you made a great point there.
