Tom Posted September 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Taking a look at what the models are now showing for the opening week of October, it's going to remain active and quite cool depending on your location. Last night's Euro has trended much colder around the GL's for later this week/weekend and has daytime highs struggling to get out of the 40's for parts of WI/U.P.! Not only that, but it's starting to "sniff" out the long awaited storm I've been predicting sometime between the 6th-8th. I must say, I'm encouraged to see the models trending towards a favorable blocking pattern and somewhat of a slight SER component and not to extreme like we saw last October. IMO, this is a key difference I'm seeing at this stage. Needless to say, our members down south are still in the game in terms of storm track and getting shots of cooler air this month. Let's see how this all unfolds. Interestingly, the GFS/GEFS have been steadfast on this pattern in the longer range and to see the Euro/EPS trend towards the American is something to consider and keep in the back of my mind going forward. Both models are showing a penetrating CF down the heartland when the potential "cutter" develops around the 6th of the month. This is likely the beginnings of the new LRC and a good sign for our Sub Forum. Prior to this system, however, is an interesting development among the models showing a wave of energy hanging back near the TX Panhandle region that forms along the stationary CF across the S Plains into the GL's. This storm system was being shown on the GFS last week in the longer range and spitting out some snow. Let's see if it trends back towards that idea for the Northwoods region. That's a nice "Banana" type HP placement.... Following this potential system, the next one on deck using the East Asian Theory/Rule, we have a re-curving Typhoon tracking near Japan on the 3rd/4th which suggests a storm track coming out of the N Rockies (10th-13th) and prob cutting hard NW during this period. However, depending on how the blocking pattern sets up, or lack thereof, this storm may be a colder one for parts of the Plains/Upper MW. Lot's of exciting elements of this pattern are coming together and will keep things active going forward. Plenty of storms and CF's traversing the entire central CONUS. Wonder why I don't think this SER will break down any time soon this month? Quite simply, if you have a consistent HP pattern just S/SE of the Aleutians, this signals a SER in the longer range. So long this ridge doesn't pop in the means farther west or north into the Bearing Sea, we won't see a massive EC ridge develop but moreso a subdued one in the means across the deep SE. Let's see how this all shakes out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 New Euro weekly run is out, and well, it sucks. After the slight glimmer of hope next week, the ridge moves back in and is actually more powerful at times than it was at any point this month. The only hope projected by this run is the ridge starts to slowly push towards the East near the end of the run, around Veterans Day. It'll be a long month and a half of anticipation. 2 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Hawkeye Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 As Sparky mentioned in another topic, DVN is cautious regarding heavy rain making it too far south today/tonight. Overnight I watched several outflow boundaries push southeast from the storms to the nw, only to quickly wash out when they hit the front. The front has made zero progress south since last night. Though confidence on the moisture is 100%, the stout EML is alsogoing to make our possible high impact forecast, far less than whatI would like. Today could be a dry day for most of the CWA, with acapped warm sector, with very warm and humid conditions again. Infact, for the south, that is by far the most likely scenario, butthe far north, today is very challenging, as the front may arriveearly, but stall immediately, or just remain north of the CWA. Inany case, I do not believe the cold front will make any fartherprogress than near Highway 20 before late afternoon. I do thinkthat the surface based storms will be inhibited in the warm sector,but north of the front, they should be widespread. Thus, a gradientfrom slight chance near I-80 will rise to categorical pops along thefar northwest through early evening. If storms can be routed alongthe surface boundary, as SPC outlooks, we may have a good set up forsupercells, with a full array of severe weather including tornadoes!If we`re not capped. Most models seems to show the EML holding,with storms firing roughly 40 miles northwest of the surfaceboundary. Looking at radar tonight, that`s been the case to thewest already. The flash flood watch is already in place north, butan expansion south west may be in order given WPC and SPCpreference for surface based storms and a southern placement. Theantecedent conditions are generally wet anyhow. Tonight, thefront will sag south, especially after Midnight. This will allowthe rains to spread southward with time, but convection is likelyto wane later tonight, and the rain rates should reduce to typicalmoderate rain of 0.10 to 0.25 / hour. I did leave some embeddedthunder chance in the grids late tonight, as any active updraftson the southern flank of the rain should allow for in-cloudlightning over a large area of the CWA. Thus, in our area, rainstonight may total 1 to 2 inches with a narrow swath of 2+ in thenorthwest, all assuming the boundary can sink far enough southtoday we get into the rain. The southern 1/2 of the CWA is morelikely to remain dry, thus, I am very low on QPF there. Eitheryou`re in heavy rain tonight, or you`re not getting any rain atall. 1 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far the low here at GRR has been 69 and if it stay above 69 until midnight we will set a new record warm minimum for October 1st For today the average H/L is now down to 66/47. The record high is 89 set way back in 1897 and the record low is 27 set way back in 1899. The warmest minimum is 68 set in 1971 and the record coldest maximum is 46 set in 1974.

Stormy Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I forgot that it’s October already and posted in the wrong thread. I’ll copy my post here as well. I like how some of the CAMS and global models have shifted the heavy stuff southeast with the jackpot again from sw. to east central Iowa. The Euro isn’t that great yet. CR. could really get clobbered according to some models. From my county on to the northwest is now included in a flash flood watch. Looking like I’m going to be right on the edge and it might be a deluge or not. It’s looking interesting including a severe threat. It’s very wet here and we don’t need rain right now, but as a storm enthusiast I’m looking forward to seeing how this evolves and hoping I can score a good strong storm. Still tropical-like here today. Yesterday I had highs of 87°/75° with a max heat index of 95° !https://www.weather.gov/dmx/dsshydro DVN doesn’t sound to optimistic though for rainfall because of the warm air aloft and EML.

Hawkeye Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 It's a shame there is a cap over much of Iowa that is preventing storm development.

I don't have a permanent gauge stand in the yard. I built a little mobile stand with small 2x4s. When it's going to rain or snow I insert the gauge onto the stand and place the stand in the middle of yard (requires placing pieces of mulch under the legs to level it). I don't even keep the downspouts prepared all the time because they kill the grass. 2 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 53/48 with light rain starting to fall. Now this is how October should start.Wish I had that. Instead, I'm stuck at 78.6*F with a dew point of 69*F. Could be worse but it's still disgusting. Record high will likely be broken today. 2 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 South shift noted by SR models.. .UPDATE...Issued at 1108 AM EDT Tue Oct 1 2019We did add Allegan and Barry counties to the the flood watch withthe morning update. There has been a tendency for the convectionto build more south and east rather than build northeast. Watchingthe convection in Wisconsin...it does appear that it will rollinto the CWA this afternoon and evening. Some high res models tryto show the bulk of the QPF over far northern parts of the CWAthrough tonight...but we are favoring a more southern track of thestorms...which would put these two counties in an increased riskfor flooding. Allegan in particular has very saturated conditionsfrom all the recent rain...which would support efficient runoff.Already the storms in Muskegon county have produce upwards of 1.5inches of rain in an hour. This gives an indication of howefficient the rainfall rates will be for this event.As for the severe risk...deep layer effective shear is supportiveof organized convection. Forecast guidance attempts to buildsurface based instability over 1500 j/kg. Thus depending on howmuch instability we do build...severe weather could become anincreasing concern.
