CentralNebWeather Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Both the GFS/Euro are showing some subtle, yet significant changes in the longer range ushering some very chilly air into the Plains/Upper MW towards the end of the month. We may see a very similar set up like we saw last year where there was a stout SER battling a major trough across the central CONUS. Early taste of winter for the Dakotas??? The 12z Euro is showing day time highs in the 40's for a couple days across the Plains (NE on north) to close out the month. The GFS is showing something similar but a tad later and not as potent. @ CentralNeb, this may be the change you are looking for my friend. The ensembles are starting to show a bleeding Canadian HP coming down out of Canada later in the month and to open up October. This trend in more blocking would make sense if you are to use the BSR and follow where the warming is happening at 10mb. Notice how the warmer colors develop across S/C Canada suggesting to look for HP in this region right around the time we flip into October. Looks like it. Looking at forecast models things may really start cooling from here north and west by Monday the 30th. GFS even painting 30’s at night. However that is 10 days away, so much can change. At least there’s hope. Thanks for the great maps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaster220 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 @Jaster, getting some real heavy rain now. This is what I thought we would have last night but it ended up NW of here. Needless to say, I’m content with what I’ve received from this event. Don’t need the flash flooding and neither do those who have been hit hard up north. I didn't need any type of flooding either ofc, but maps yesterday showing 1.5 to 2" and 80% Hvy Rain likely sounded good since we are still digging out of a serious deficit here. It has finally begun to rain (very lightly) here and the night is not over, but this is looking and feeling like yet another in a long string of busts this summer. My current grid-cast: New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible. My $$ is on the underlined amt, and that my snarky comment earlier was sadly accurate. This pattern can't die soon enough, I'm so over it. It's takes the fun out of this hobby when you sit on the sidelines game after game. 2 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...

We're looking at upper 80s here on October 1. Let's go, I look more attractive in a hoodie and jeans. Once again, it looks like in 2 weeks we won't get cold, but we'll at least see more seasonable temps.

Tom Posted September 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Welcome to Autumn! At 2:50am cst, we entered the Fall equinox and the weather will feel certainly feel like Autumn. We are expecting breezy winds out of the WNW today along sunny skies and temps in the low 70's. #perfection As for the "heavy rain" event this past weekend, local reports of 1.5-2.0'' were common, but nowhere near to the 3-4" that were expected. Some spots up north did manage to get 2-3". Not a bad 7-day...a trend to cooler around these parts??? It was only yesterday the models were showing 80's for next weekend. Let's see if it holds. The season's strongest push of cooler air coming for those up north??? Widespread 40's look pretty good for our friends up north....this may just be a precursor for what is coming down the road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Check this out....after briefly flipping through the models this morning I was struck by the contrast of the pattern the CFSv2 is forecasting between Week 2 & 3. One will quickly notice the pattern of this year's LRC which showcased the SER, Blocking and SW Flow. For the Week 3 forecast, as the saying goes, "Out with the old, in with the new"...the time stamp for the Week 3 500mb map below is Oct 7th-13th (right when the new LRC starts)...there is that SW ridge I've felt that would be an exhibit of next year's LRC pattern. Let's see if it holds bc its been showing some varying solutions of late. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 The H/L yesterday at GRR was 80/68. That 68 sets a new record minimum for the date. The official rain fall yesterday at GRR was 2.56”. Here at my house just NW of Grand Rapids I recorded just 1.43” so the rain was much heaver to my SE. For today the average H/L is 70/50 the record high was a hot 96 in 2017 and the record low is 28 set in 1974. The warmest minimum is 66 set in 2017. And the record coldest maximum is 49 set in 1928. Last year the H/L was 71/45. The timing of yesterdays rain fall is one of the issues I have with the CoCoRaHS reporting times. For CoCoRaHS the standard reporting time is 7 AM give or take but the NWS their daily report is from midnight to midnight so that yesterday my CoCoRaHS report was 0.35” for Saturday and then 1.08” for Sunday. And the official report at GRR was 2.56” for Sunday and just a trace for Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I bit the bullet and subscribed to WeatherModels again. Looks like EPS is significantly less enthusiastic about a massive cooldown, instead overall showing temps around normal, if not slightly above for this area. Cooler out West but even that doesn't last too long. OP Euro looks like GFS. Nothing earth-shattering but it at least gets Summer out the door. 3 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Cooler out West but even that doesn't last too long. OP Euro looks like GFS. Nothing earth-shattering but it at least gets Summer out the door.I'm buying with the what the GFS/GEFS are showing. I think this will be a classic battle between the American vs Euro...GFS is quicker ejecting the major trough out east while the Euro/EPS hang it back in the West. I'm a little bias leaning towards the GEFS bc its been my long standing idea that the beginnings of the new LRC would favor more ridging in the W/SW. Not only that, but by utilizing the BSR (pattern back in Sept) it would first favor a storm track across the northern tier during the opening few days of October then slowly push it south as I foresee more blocking in western Canada to develop. My target dates of a storm system coming out of the central Rockies is between Oct 6th-10th and traversing the Plains/MW (should be a cold storm). First storm of the LRC pattern??? Lot's of interesting variables coming together. Encouraging, yes, but still a long ways out...there is that SW Ridge on the GEFS setting up in the desert SW....as a result, the North American [attern overall would favor a Nina-ish one coupled with an active STJ enhanced by a Nino-ish SW Flow??? Quite a fascinating pattern is on the horizon if the models are right as the new LRC pattern evolves. Like I said yesterday, this is what excites me bc I can't recall having the atmosphere and oceans signal quite opposite global drivers of the wx pattern. Man, that's a firehouse of precip smack dab across the ag belt regions.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted September 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 As mentioned in a previous post a number of days ago, using the BSR, we should look for a storm to traverse the northern tier of our Sub during the opening days of October. So, here we go, the GFS is suggesting a rather potent storm in the Day 9-10 range. I like what I'm seeing and it fits some LR forecasting tools I use. Buckle up, storm tracking is going to get a bit more exciting in the days/weeks to come. This post is geared more towards October, but instead I'll post it here since we don't have one yet...prob should fire one up soon...maybe later today or sometime this week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andie Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Your success in storms is my hope. Eventually this will dip south with a strong NW push. Nina-dry winters are harder on us than dry summers. The land is used to dry summers, but a lack of rain in winter months in Okla/Tx is rough on livestock, spring crops, and our attitudes. I'm hoping to watch it start to slump south. 2 Quote Before You Diagnose Yourself With Depression or Low Self-Esteem,...First Make Sure You Are Not In Fact, Just Surrounded By A$$holes. “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Gen.

westMJim Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Here at Grand Rapids there now has been 14 days in a row of above average temperatures and for the month of September 17 of the first 23 days have been warmer then average. Yesterday the H/L was 70/56. For today the average H/L is 70/49 (note the coldest it has been so far this September has been 48°) The record high for today is 94 set in 2017 and the record low is 29 set in 1976. The warmest minimum is 69 set in 1930 and the record coldest maximum is 46 set in 1942. Last year the H/L was 72/50.It looks like the overnight low at GRR was 55 but that was 6° warmer then here at my house where the low dropped down to 49° Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Dubzz Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Had a dream last night that we were supposed to get a little snow this weekend. It appears not to be true, but hopefully a sign of good things to come! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Next week really cools off. Projected highs in the 50s. Now, that is some Autumn temps coming. 2 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

Niko Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Weather-wise, similar to Lincoln so far lol. This is my 4th straight unseasonably warm September. Though the coolness in August was really nice. I enjoy the lake breeze even though I live too far from the lake for temps to really be affected by it.Hopefully, you get to see some good snowstorms this Winter in Ohio. W the correct track, it will benefit my area as well 1 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

Stormhunter87 Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I'm buying with the what the GFS/GEFS are showing. I think this will be a classic battle between the American vs Euro...GFS is quicker ejecting the major trough out east while the Euro/EPS hang it back in the West. I'm a little bias leaning towards the GEFS bc its been my long standing idea that the beginnings of the new LRC would favor more ridging in the W/SW. Not only that, but by utilizing the BSR (pattern back in Sept) it would first favor a storm track across the northern tier during the opening few days of October then slowly push it south as I foresee more blocking in western Canada to develop. My target dates of a storm system coming out of the central Rockies is between Oct 6th-10th and traversing the Plains/MW (should be a cold storm). First storm of the LRC pattern??? Lot's of interesting variables coming together. Encouraging, yes, but still a long ways out...there is that SW Ridge on the GEFS setting up in the desert SW....as a result, the North American [attern overall would favor a Nina-ish one coupled with an active STJ enhanced by a Nino-ish SW Flow??? Quite a fascinating pattern is on the horizon if the models are right as the new LRC pattern evolves. Like I said yesterday, this is what excites me bc I can't recall having the atmosphere and oceans signal quite opposite global drivers of the wx pattern. Man, that's a firehouse of precip smack dab across the ag belt regions.... Cpc and local noaa calling for alot of moisture soon. At this point it's overkill. The flood waters have close I29 again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
