I like the way things are shaping up. A storm should develop for the GL's region and for some others as well soon. Also, EPO on the GFS reaches -7 deviation by come mid December.

jaster220 Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Little late with this, but tablet at home's got limited options.. This is like the longest storm I've ever seen modeled off yesterday's 18z - like 42 hrs and still snowing! Just couldn't let that epic phantasy run get away without a keepsake Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 After digesting all the data from the various operational/ensembles for Week 1-2, I am struck by the beauty of the potential and the North American 500mb mean pattern. If we had these maps available in the late 70's, I wonder if they would look very close to what they are advertising in the longer range?? It's almost textbook from what I have seen and read in papers written by Jerome Namias. After the 4th-6th storm system, I'm more encouraged that the pattern leading up to the next bigger storm potential (11th-15th), that we will see a dominant clipper pattern for a good stretch. My feeling is that these clippers could produce some healthy snows and its not out of the realm of possibility that one may become a hybrid and over produce in this type of environment (Ex; High ratio's). I'm inclined to believe that these smaller scale systems will lay down some fresh powdery snows even to those out in the Plains if the PV does in fact center itself in SE Canada. Nobody is out of the game in this year's pattern and I feel more confident than ever that this won't be a season where one part of the sub forum misses out on the action. Confidence is growing that this is setting up to be a "share the wealth" season for all of us on here throughout the winter. I know everyone is itching to get their first accumulating snows (believe me, so am I) but if you miss out on early next weeks storm, there are plenty more chances in the near future before the Christmas holiday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
