weatherfan2012 Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 The GFS and many of the EPS members have another round of insane cold for much of the country this weekend and early next week.I can’t recall 850mb temperatures ever dropping to -23C or colder here on March 6th. I’ll have to look back at reanalysis but that would be ridiculous. In all of its insanity, not even March 2014 pulled that off. that would be absurd cold for March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 I'm perpetually amazed by how much of an effect the highest atmospheric levels (above 200 mb) have on overall circulation patterns. There's so little air up there...That’s why I’m so fascinated by it. The spatial equilibrium is so fragile..it’s hard to comprehend sometimes, especially when certain weather patterns repeat for years on end, haha. But it really can change in the blink of an eye. It just takes the right bump at the right time. And the more I learn, the more humbling and sobering it has gotten for me, as I realize how little I actually know. The climate system is more complex, and is capable of so much more, than anyone presently alive can grasp. And this is not just hyperbole...some of the stuff we’ve uncovered in the proxy record (over the last two years alone) seems to defy logic. There will be some great literature published later this year in that department.

Blizzard777 Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Wonder if those echoes forming near Olympia/Tacoma will turn into anything interesting.

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Pretty pathetic way to transition up here, too far west to catch one band but too far east to catch the stuff circling the center of the low. Looks like Abbotsford is reporting 39F with rain/snow mix, must be getting some downslope heating on that side of the Strait. Currently 38F here in Victoria. February has sure proven itself a winter month again in this region this past decade. Another coolish day tomorrow would be nice to solidify this as a truly cold month, but after that I'm hoping for a more active pattern even if it's warm/rainy. This cool/dry is getting old, the only impressively numbers now are the anomalies, 40-45F days are pretty normal fare every winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow_wizard Posted February 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 I'm liking the looks of the radar right now. It's obvious that an area of precip in the developing stages well south of what the models have been suggesting. Could be good for King County and points northward. I already had a brief period of snow earlier, but what's coming looks far more impressive. Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!

I usually use the NWS radar site which is better for seeing the big picture. The blue stuff is just virga or flurries when the air mass is dry. Need green in the situation.
