TigerWoodsLibido Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Kids come over tomorrow for one night and of course it’s going to rain the whole time. Don’t get me wrong, we need it but we have not had a single weekend without rain since they started coming down. Maybe by August we can go to the park without getting rained on.

Time will tell. I just find it interesting to track either way.Then again, the GFS crashes the pattern back into troughing after D10, so it’s kind of delayed-not-denied. Either way, I don’t see anything that could sustain ridging for very long. The WPAC/IPWP forcing that often does it has entered into a state of dormancy. And the annular mode is negative, which also destructively interferes with western ridging in the long run.

TT-SEA Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 00Z EPS did not really show the ULL solution... here is Sunday: It also showed weak ridging through the end of the run... here is the 10-15 day mean: But I would not be surprised at all if the 12Z ECMWF shows the ULL... maybe even stronger than the 00Z run. I never discount the ECMWF.

TacomaWaWx Posted May 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 53 and cloudy here at 8am. Definitely still hoping for more rain but it doesn’t look like it’ll be coming in the month of May unless something changes. Only about 0.15-0.25” over the next 10 days here according to the gfs with about 1” for areas south of Puget Sound down through western Oregon. This May is going to be one of the driest here in the last 5-10 years up there with 15’ and 18’ unless we get an inch of rain somehow. Hopefully this diffrent pattern Over the pacific will result in us getting more rain in June than this month which has happened here a few times.

TT-SEA Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 12Z GFS back on the ULL train for next Saturday. Such a tiny little feature up near Alaska on Thursday and then blossoms over WA by Saturday. FV3 does not show it at all and is ridgy for next weekend. If the 12Z ECMWF still shows it then its probably going to happen... and I expect it will show it. Even with the ULL on Saturday... the GFS agrees with the FV3 on warm weather again by Sunday.
