Glad this is not an El Niño year bc if they start cold they usually end up warm. La Nada’s/Nina’s that start cold usually hold cold throughout the winter. Are we going to another level this year?

Both sides of the state did get some snows in March of 1992. with 15.1" at Grand Rapids, 14.1" at Lansing 11.7" at Detroit 14.4" at Flint and 11.0" at Saginaw.

Tom Posted October 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Tom I would like to hear more about this idea of yours about the storm coming out of the southwest the second week of November. Where are you seeing all this stuff that suggests that?I use the Bearing Sea Rule as guidance for long range predictions and look at how the systems track in the Bearing Sea/Aleutian Islands. Nothing is guaranteed, but it did a very good job predicting the GL's storm we are experiencing today over 2 weeks out. There are other things I use to help make a decent prediction but these are in general my own gut feelings on where ridges/troughs are setting up in the N PAC. Anyway, I'll try to explain it to you using the animated map below. First off, the system that I feel rather strongly about will be entering the picture around 11/10-11/14 (centered around 11/11). From knowledge that I have gained, there are a couple important features I use as pattern recognition out in East Asia. Take a look at both the storm/trough in the Sea of Okhotsk and then the obvious Typhoon LAN near Japan on the 22nd. The trough placement in the Sea of Okhotsk typically translates to a trough forming in SW Canada/N Rockies. When both of these systems phase (it may be a scenario where you have a driving northern branch phasing with a southern stream wave in the SW). You will see both systems phase on the 24th along the Aleutian chain and nearly track due west/east across the Bearing Sea suggesting what may be another CO Low system which we have already seen happen this season. If this storm were to cut NE, then you would see a GL's cutter, but I don't see that happening with this storm. I think there will be enough blocking in place during this period where this storm may be a "share the wealth" type. It would be a lot easier for me to explain this to you in person or on the phone as there are other things I look at as well but in general, this is what I see and I hope you understand where I'm coming from. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, so far I see 2 distinct parts of this early LRC pattern, one with a SW Flow regime and then a potentially frigid NW Flow "clipper" dominant northern stream. I think the GL's will be impacted by both of these cycles so I'd imagine Gary Lezak will likely highlight this region in his maps come end of November. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not entirely sure that this is where the surface moisture comes from, but I'd assume the mid levels would be at least a tad drier since they would originate from this region.This is true and a good point. I guess it would really depend on where the clipper originates from. For instance, the one targeting the Northwoods/U.P. this week came off the Pacific and has decent plume of moisture coming with it. Occasionally, these can dig with enough blocking and slow quite a bit allowing the GOM connection to come into play. This seldom happens but in a potential blocked up flow this season, it’s def on the table moreso this season than any other one in recent years. Other clippers originate from the far NW territories and are almost starved of moisture when they enter our picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig-OmahaWX Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Yup, give it another day or two and the signal will be much better. The PNA looks to relax also which would be more favorable as well for a SW Flow. Coast to coast storm pattern in Nov?That's what Im hoping for. I've seen these systems miss just to my east in Iowa too many times.

GDR Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 I don't know about you but I got a feeling that some big storms from kc to Dsm and Chicago are going to smash that area this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted October 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Tonight's Euro Weeklies run is probably the coldest and snowiest run of the season. It literally builds a glacier by the first week of December from the Plains to the Lakes...might even start by Thanksgiving week! Insane. Gives us a clue as to where this pattern is heading. This is the first run which loads the entire country of Canada with brutal cold and carves out the coldest below normal anomalies smack dab in the middle of the nation with both coasts above normal temp wise. November = Brrrrrr #Ol'manwinter #PolarVortex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November = Brrrrrr #Ol'manwinter #PolarVortexEven the 32-day brings the snow quite a bit South. It is very likely us plainsers will have a >2" snowfall before Thanksgiving imo. It does, however, appear to get warmer as December starts. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Craig-OmahaWX Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Been hearing some talking that this winter could be like 2006-2007...thoughts? http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2007/images/usa-winter-wrap-up-precip-03-2007.jpg Quote 2018-2019 Snowfall Totals So Far : 59.5" For More Winter Weather Forecasts for 2017-2018 : https://www.facebook.com/snowdayweather/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKwx2k4 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 November 17 was the day I've had in mind for my first real snow event. Sounds like it may be before then. Crazy awesome stuff. Seeing a 15 day mean that loaded with cold is really ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
