Phil Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Ok. That was actually sort of clever. I’m curious if you read my post or just skimmed it and assumed I was agreeing with Phil that Tim is lying. Because that wasn’t the case.You having a stroke or something? For the record, I don’t think Tim lies either. He just doesn’t have a weather station in his backyard and estimates etc etc etc.This seems reasonable.

I want -NAO back.Oh yes, large vascillations between quasi-stable modes are commonplace during interdecadal scale climate changes. Especially when transitioning between seasons. In this case, we’re actually lucky, because we know what’s causing the +NAO/+NAM. Sometimes, it’s a more subtle reason(s), in which case it can mirror the old regime so well on the surface that you’d never know anything was changing in the nether-regions of the system. 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...

Note the SSW impact on the high latitudes as well as the recoil in the tropics (and subsequent poleward +AAM propagation, which is happening now). The first week of May will still be super +NAO/+PNA, however. The big flip will start in the high latitudes during the middle of May (after the 10th) manifesting first as an anticyclonic wavebreak on the Eurasian side of the Arctic, eventually propagating into the NAO domain and displacing the TPV from Greenland/Baffin Bay into the Eastern US. While this happens, the west will still be sitting under a ridge, but this process will likely initiate a retrogression of the ridge offshore. How long it takes for that to occur is questionable, but it will probably take until the very end of May for -PNA/western trough to establish again. Could happen faster, or it might take a bit longer. We’ll have to wait and see. 2 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...
Frontal Snowsquall Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Like yesterday? The 12Z runs actually toned the potential for heat down, if anything. Where it matters most, I called for 85 in the contest so I actually underestimated the heat. Yesterday morning I started sweating outside so I upped my prediction to mid to upper 80s with an outside chance of 90. Just a gut feeling at this time. 12z EURO would look hotter but a weak disturbance breaks through the ridge late in the run. I'm expecting that to be gone in future runs. Otherwise the ridge is going to look fat and healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
