Front Ranger Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 I question whether it has the 500mb progression right anyways. Might be a moot point if everything moves faster as usual. Yeah, hard to say...the general trend today by the models was towards a ridgier solution in that time frame, but 6-7 days away has proven to be challenging for the models as of late. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world.

snow_wizard Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 I like how the 0z is trying to keep the heights up over the NE Pacific early next week. Less wet and more chilly.

snow_wizard Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 Nice little cold snap later in the month on the 0z. 528 thickness, 850s drop to -4, and then a 1040mb surface high moves in right on top of us. That would be solidly nippy. Probably a day or two with highs in the upper 40s and lows sneaking down into the upper 20s / low 30s in some places. It's worth noting the control model on the GFS ensemble has been consistently showing 850s dropping to -4 or -5 later in the month as well. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

wx_statman Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 To highlight how dead the off-equator WPAC forcing is right now, there have been zero named WPAC storms since 9/18. That is the first time in recorded history that no WPAC tropical cyclones have occurred between 9/19 and 10/9. And, unsurprising, the western US has been locked in a cool/troughy pattern during the aforementioned period. It's not a coincidence. What about the record heat in late September? It's never so simple. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it's not that surprising considering that we'll have been in a quasi-stationary trough for nearly 6 weeks by the 21st.Makes sense. There's a very coherent MJO signal right now so it makes the progression clearer IMO. Going zonal first, strorm train/GOA pinwheel, then a period of ridging sometime in November as the vortex retrogrades and/or bifurcates. I'm not sure exactly when in November the ridging will happen but probably will be either the early or middle portion of the month, IMO. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
