Jesse Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 12Z ECMWF is much less troughy after the middle of next week. And in fact appears to be going back towards ridging in the 8-10 day period. Desperation is a stinky cologne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You liked my 12Z GFS post but my 12Z ECMWF post bothers you. That is stinky!

They are very different runs.Extrapolating that it is heading toward ridging is different than just stating what a model shows. That is still a pretty cool pattern at day 10, with below average 500mb heights. It might be a sunnier and drier pattern, but still cool.

It is definitely "less troughy" than the 12Z GFS in the 8-10 period. And does in fact appear to be heading towards ridging with the trough digging out into the Bering Sea. Time will tell. Here is the 12Z GFS at day 8: And the 12Z ECMWF at day 8: Is the 12Z ECMWF "less troughy" than the GFS for later next week?? You make the call.

Front Ranger Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 12Z ECMWF is much less troughy after the middle of next week compared to the GFS. And in fact appears to be going back towards ridging in the 8-10 day period. It never really gets there, though, and actually at day 10 it looks more like another shortwave is dropping down towards the PNW as ridging remains well offshore. Like I said, the Euro is something of a compromise between the very troughy GFS and somewhat ridgy CMC in the 8-10 day period. It will probably be closest to correct.

No kidding. I did not say it was warm. I have pointed that out several times now. I said it was "less troughy" than the GFS. This is a simple fact and just an observation. You also have long history of saying temps look solidly below normal here but it does always not work out that way. Sunday - Wednesday will definitely be solidly below normal. Beyond that... not as clear.

Sunday - Wednesday will definitely be solidly below normal. Beyond that... not as clear.I'm sure we will be getting hour by hour reports of SEA's temperature anomaly potential for the day soon, or how it is running warmer than Jim et al thought. Then maybe even a webcam shot of a sun break in Covington. Followed by a day-15 hosted image of the GEM showing 594 heights over us. I guess at very least this behavior will let us know that a cool period is back. You calm down a lot when temperatures are comfortably above average for weeks. Nothing to go to war against. The cold freaks are properly crushed and demoralized, as they should always be for holding such perverse preferences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average high later next week in Seattle is 67 or 68 degrees. ECMWF shows exactly that in the 8-10 day period and it has a cool bias.

ShawniganLake Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Pretty strong offshore flow today. NE gusting to 30mph in Abbotsford. Seems unlikely that we see anymore sustained ridging this month. With the exception of a day or two here and there it seems most likely that the ridging stays to our NW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Quite the intense conversation in here today.Longer nights and smoke free nights are dropping those lows down. Another morning in the 40s - 47. It doesn't looks like any sustained ridging over the region for the next couple weeks from what I gather. More transient ridges. 2 Quote Mercer Island, 350 ft 2021-2022: 11.6", 02/21 2020-2021: 15.6" 2019-2020: ~10" 2018-2019 winter snowfall total: 29.5" 2017-2018: 9.0", 2016-2017: 14.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Most places would have below normal lows with that pattern, though. SEA...who knows. I hate blending 5 days. In reality the 6-10 period on the ECMWF: 6 and 7 well below normal and days 8-10 near normal. It averages below normal for the 5 days but is going towards ridging and warmer temps.

Jesse Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 We rarely have such drawn out debates with so many maps when weeks of warm ridging look imminent. Even people like Jim or Andrew or I who prefer cooler conditions mostly roll with it or don't post at all. But if a potentially prolonged troughy period shows up, uh oh!
