Tom Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Finally tally at ORD (2.36") of beneficial precip and prob not the last this week. I'm glad the pattern is turning a little more active around here. The next chance of storms comes Thu pm as a weak CF pushes in from the north. I actually see this set up producing a repeat scenario as we saw yesterday. Slow moving front, abundant moisture along with heat/humidity.

Tom Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 One interesting stat that I saw from the tropical downpours last night, at ORD, 0.68" of rain fell in 8 minutes! That equates to 5"/hr...that is some epic stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 After analyzing the overnight data, I spotted something fascinating about the weather pattern evolving across the N PAC. If you take a look at the current state of the SST's, one can see a "road map" where storm systems near the East Asian coast, literally track into the Bearing Sea while being diverted northward due to the warm blob growing in the NE PAC. Here's an MSLP animation off the 00z GEFS showing 3 systems over the next 10 days that track right across the area in the N PAC where you can see the "cold" stripe of waters extending from the Bearing Straits, west into the Sea of Okhotsk. With that being said, these 3 systems, IMO, will initially begin to show some early indications of Autumn across the northern sub forum, and progressively send stronger troughs farther south as we close out the month of August (target date 8/22). This peculiar pattern is something I have been looking for to evolve, even though its a little later than I originally thought. The bottom line is, if the Bearing Sea trough does in fact heat up, alongside, the building NE PAC ridge, you can bet on it that we will see an early onset of Autumn this year. Obviously, we'll have your typical swings in temps but I can forsee plenty of troughs/fronts with severe wx potential 2nd half of August.

Niko Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Storms rolled on through in the middle of the night. Not sure how much rain fell, but I know it was coming down in buckets. Loud noise hitting my roof. Still remains humid w more pm storms. Temps will bottom out in the 80s.

CentralNebWeather Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 I have coached football here at our high school for over 20 years, and I would put today as top 10 most uncomfortable practices. Dew point was 70, temp was 85. Doesn’t sound that bad, until you consider full blazing sun, no clouds, wind calm, moisture coming up from the ground following the morning 2” rain. Players were in helmets, shoulder pads and shorts. We have a water machine that we completely emptied. In today’s game we are better educated to deal with heat than ever before, more breaks and plenty of water. Autumn please and low dew points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to autumn soon. Tom's analysis gave him a target date around the 21st (I think?) and my own prior thoughts had said last 10 days of the month for the real first taste of Autumn weather so I'd say we'll get there sooner than later. Hang in there! 2 people using multiple approaches and yielding such similar ideas doesn't happen very often so we may be on to something.

Minny_Weather Posted August 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 I have a bad feeling about the rest of this month going into next month. Looks like the boring pattern will continue with only one legitimate rain chance over the next 10 days. After that, MAYBE one brief cooldown but then it's back to boringness to open up met Fall.

Tom Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Today, marks the first day, during the second half of the year where the sun will set before 8:00pm (7:58pm). Another small, but subtle sign that Autumn is approaching. I had to make adjustments to my timers connected to my lamps in the living room yesterday as they were turning on when the room was much to dark. The mornings are becoming notably darker as well nowadays. Meantime, looking forward to more boomers around the area later today and another steamy one. WRF is showing a nice line coming through around 5:00pm...another rush hour disaster??? ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's awesome and it is also a month to 45 days early correct?TBH, I don't typically start looking on that side of the globe during this time of year. I usually begin digging into the pattern sometime in mid Sept as we get closer to the opening of October, but this season, something caught my eye and I'm encouraged to see the Aleutian Islands/Bearing Sea showing signs of activity early on. Regarding for the LRC, over the past few years, I always wondered if Gary believed if there were signs of the new pattern during the month of August. I recall reading one of his blogs and he did mention that he does believe that way up in the northern latitudes, he agrees that I think it was 25% of the new pattern begins evolving, while still 75% of the old pattern is still in play. As we get closer and closer to the first week of Oct, those percentages obviously trend higher towards the new pattern. In essence, maybe this pattern evolving across the N PAC is a slight hint of what to expect. Our current LRC pattern did have phases of the Bearing Sea trough but the Bearing Sea ridge was more dominant it seemed, that is, until now and what future guidance is indicating. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Nice to see that parts of N MO getting much needed moisture where the drought has been the worst. Depending on where the mid week system later next week tracks, could be some more appreciable rains across the drought stricken regions in the MW ag belt. I love seeing TX and the Panhandle region getting very wet over the next 7 days! JMA weeklies agreeing with the GEFS/CFSv2 weeklies that during Week 2, not only do we get cooler, but wetter as well.... http://ds.data.jma.go.jp/tcc/tcc/products/model/map/1mE/map1/img/R07_2/Y201808.D0812_gl2.png http://ds.data.jma.go.jp/tcc/tcc/products/model/map/1mE/map1/img/R07_2/Y201808.D0812_gl0.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Those living near the eastern MW/GL's region, we will see a nice pullback in temps into the 70's starting next Wed and may last into the following weekend. Both GFS/Euro starting to see a nice trough-like pattern developing. Last post before I head out to the gym, I am more encouraged that we will see the pattern lock into an Aleutian trough and a stout NE PAC ridge to close out the month of Aug. Folks, Autumn is around the corner if this pattern does play out. Like I said before, late August into early Sept, I'm expecting to see some pretty big systems/troughs to roll through the northern sub that'll progressively make they're way and penetrate into the S Plains. Keep an eye on that good ol' North American Polar Vortex parking itself just north of Hudson Bay. This, by all means, is an early indication of what I believe will be a major player this coming cold season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids holding up well, coaches not as young as we used to be. Full pads tomorrow. Don’t see much of a break in this pattern in the extended. Saving grace is temps shouldn’t be over 90 but dews continue unabated as the ground is saturated and there is no wind. Living here you get used to wind, so when it is calm for days you miss it on these scorching days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when last years Aleutian Low would actually be there it was displaced NEward it seems like due to massive Siberian HP and the ridge you refer to making the pattern totally ineffective for me. I should have caught that last season and I didn't. Didn't get enough personal bias correction in on that one I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it has been warm, at times hot (which happens every year), your timely rains have solidified a great growing season in NE.

It was the summer after the Super Nino of '15-'16 and I can't remember how many humid and very warm/muggy days and nights we had that summer....relentless! It lasted all the way into late October, bc I remember during the Cubbies epic postseason stretch when they won it all, there were some very warm, at times, muggy evenings (for Autumn standards).

Tom Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 Boy, if the Euro Weeklies are right, this would fit right into the idea of a cooler finish to August. Notice the Bearing Sea/Aleutian trough still locked into place, NE PAC ridge, Hudson Bay vortex, and with ridging off both coasts this should be a first REAL Autumn tease for the central CONUS.
