Jesse Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Don't like how the cold next weekend and even outflow that was shown earlier has just vanished into a wishy-washy gross pattern as we get closer. Something tells me this long range stuff will continue to go through a vanishing stage when it gets around 144-168 hours out. I'm sure you will find another foothills resident that agrees with this wholeheartedly. Which is great for you. Misery loves company! I think there is still potential down the road, though.

Misery loves company! I think there is still potential down the road, though. Deal in reality Jesse. Nature does not give a crap about being happy and positive for the sake of being happy and positive. Next weekend went from looking to pretty good to looking pretty gross once we crossed inside the resolution. February will likely end up below normal... but that does not mean it will be memorable. I just wish it would be wet. That being said... this is hands-down my favorite winter here. The number of dry days and sunshine here have been astounding.

weather girl Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 There was an August getaways. But that short period was pretty much the entire summer that year. I mean... how can you tell its summer without at least a 2-week period of hot weather?? Seasons! Just like its nice to know its winter with a period of arctic air and snow. The summer of 1977 was barely decent outside of that 2-week hot spell.I am not a fan of hot summers. Sue me. :-) But clearly, I was remembering the records incorrectly. Long live the ridge.

Jesse Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Deal in reality Jesse. Nature does not give a crap about being happy and positive for the sake of being happy and positive.

I just wish it would be wet. That being said... this is hands-down my favorite winter here. The number of dry days and sunshine here have been astounding. How exactly is acknowledging that we still may have a shot down the road not dealing in reality? I have never understood the belief held by a few here that blind pessimism is somehow firmly rooted in reality while cautious optimism is not. I just said a few posts ago this may not happen at all. Don't see how you can get any more "real" than that. I figured a comment of that nature would please the dual foothill gods of pessimism and get me off their list, but I guess it wasn't enough.

I just cringe at the thought that we can only say positive things about the future. As if that is how it actually works here! Being honest means talking about how it might not turn cold and snowy. How it could go differently. That is how reality works most of the time.

We were being scolded for talking about the bad signs for early January... how did that go despite so many good signs? What are the bad signs right now?

People who thought it did were dreaming. There are some decent signs for February. The problem is that it is February, a month that has completely sucked 95% of the time over the past 18 years.

I apologize in advance. Be nice if you mix it up once in awhile... and post about some bad signs as well. They do exist and to understand nature we need to recognize and talk about both! Only talking about positive signs... and ridiculing anyone who posts something you and Jim deem 'negative' does a disservice to all of us. That is the only way Jim wants this forum to work. Only cheering and positive news from July though March and then disappear from April - June. All for what usually ends up being one week of cold and snow each winter anyways.

snow_wizard Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Normally I get very worried when the models put off cold weather, but the fact the ECMWF and GFS both deliver after the failed first attempt is somewhat reassuring. The ECMWF ensemble was the first model to pick up on this. Now the ECMWF, GFS, and Canadian all show the minor cold snap later this week followed by brief moderation and then a second better setup toward day 10. More than anything history is kind of on our side when talking about a major January death ridge in a neutral or cold ENSO winter. Usually it evens out by the time its over. Given the extreme nature of the pattern we are in an opposite extreme should be coming. I'm just thankful my area has gotten through this torch at the 850mb level with mostly below normal temps thanks to cold nights and some foggy cold days. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

snow_wizard Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 I am glad the models are showing a good opportunity for something decent. However, after the past month and a half I am remaining skeptical. But at least they aren't showing an endless 850mb torch like they were 2 weeks ago. No question there will be a huge pattern shift. The big question is the details. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

snow_wizard Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 At this point all the sub-freezing nights in the world don't mean that much to me. I also had 119 sub-freezing nights in 2011-2012 and 98" of snow to go with it. I have always loved frosty mornings. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

TT-SEA Posted January 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 No question there will be a huge pattern shift. The big question is the details. It does not even look like a major pattern shift unfortunately. Looks like the cold remains parked to our east with just a slight shift west. Also seems to be shifting north as we move out of the middle of winter. http://www.ecmwf.int/products/forecasts/d/getchart/catalog/products/forecasts/medium/deterministic/msl_uv850_z500!Geopotential%20500%20hPa%20and%20Temperature%20at%20850%20hPa!240!North%20America!pop!od!oper!public_plots!2014012612!!chart.gif Even at 240 hours... its still not cold enough for lowland snow. And it would probably be cloudy with this pattern resulting in warmer nights.

snow_wizard Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 SEA was 39 at 11am. A Siberian cold wave for them this month. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

If you look at the surface pressure maps on day 10 it clearly shows an Arctic front has arrived at Bellingham. Strong northerly gradients. Also look at the evolution between day 9 and 10. No question that is poised for good things here. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Basically we may go from dry mild weather to dry cool weather. Not really what we need. Not a major pattern shift. There is no real major pattern change through the end of the resolution. A little rain, a little mountain snow, but not a major pattern shake up. 2 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!

Its 240 hours out and marginal even at face value now. Really stretching. There is some hope obviously. But an honest discussion would involve talking about all possibilities. And my guess is that the trend is bad right now and that means it probably will not happen. Cooler than normal and wetter seems likely though.
