Tom Posted November 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 It's a balmy 50F as the warm sector of our powerful GL's storm passes to my north. Winds are beginning to tick up as I sit underneath the "belly of the beast" as one would say. While sipping on my coffee this morning, I reflected back over the past several years and realized how spoiled our Sub Forum has been. Particularly speaking in regards to the northern half of our Sub which has seen so many Blizzard/ Powerful storm systems since about the 2017/18 season. Is this something we should get used to in the coming years? I'm beginning to sense that this indeed is a shift in the pattern overall across the U.S. It'll be interesting how long this active period should last as we roll deeper into the Solar Min. I haven't had much time to post lately due to the work load I've had lately and making preparations for the holiday. It's a busy time of year and clients want to get things wrapped up before the holiday season. In any case, I'll be the first to say the models had me fooled the cold would come down out of Canada after we get through this week of storminess. I should have recalled from past experience when a SSW event or disruption of the PV is occurring, the teleconnections typically result in unfavorable conditions for wintry weather in the lower 48. However, this will not be a permanent pattern in December bc I firmly stand on my original call that severe winter conditions prevail by mid & late December and I'll explain my reasoning below. So, while I struck out on the coming "pull back" that is looking to last a good 10-15 day period, I don't expect to strike out later in December. It really bothers me when I'm wrong as I strive to provide the best information possible. While trying to keep a positive light on things moving forward, there are several LR clues I look for in the 2+ week period that favor for Winter to return. My favorite tool to use are the 10mb/30mb maps that show the reversal of cold across the Arctic which has transpired over the last week or so. The tendency for models to act erratic while an ongoing Strat Warming event is evolving is completely normal. With that being said, the buldge in warmth across the Arctic at 10mb around the 20th of this month is a lead indicator to look for a reversal in the +AO spike in early December and watch for the AO to tank post 12/10. The spike at 10mb/30mb is evident below.... IMO, I foresee blocking to redevelop in the same "hot spot" regions of NE Canada/Alaska and the N Pole during Week 2 of December. As far as the MJO, last Monday's Euro Weeklies dramatically flipped from rotating through the warm phases on it's Monday run. The JMA weeklies held stead fast and has lead the way. Does the JMA continue to show this for tomorrow's run? Do the Euro Weeklies also "see" the colder phases??? I believe so given the near record +IOD that is transpiring in the Indian Ocean. I may be stubborn sometimes but I've long believed this would be a different December than previous warm ones that we have seen in recent years. Here was yesterday's MJO run from the Euro... http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/MJO/CLIVAR/ECMF_phase_51m_small.gif Phase 2 has some warmth overall across the N Sub with cooler weather in the west and south... In regards to potential storm systems down the road, I'm still looking for a system to traverse the region 12/5 - 12/8 but this may be end up being a hard cutter given the pattern and using the EAR it makes sense. Is there another cutter but with more blocking present between 12/12 - 12/14??? Is there a post Winter Solstice storm looming...a potential Blockbuster??? Does this lead into a cold/stormy Christmas holiday season??? I know we all would like to see a wonderful holiday season with bountiful snow opportunities. The signs are aligning towards these ideas in the LR. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 One last comment regarding the Strat, is this the part that breaks the camels back??? 00z GEFS illustrating a complete reversal over the Pole and a major disruption of the PV. This would lead to a strong -AO in the longer range and to look for the models to show the high lat blocking Week 2 in December. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 At this time the sun is coming up and there is just enough clearing to the SE to see the sunshine on the dark red and brown leaves on the Oak trees in the woods to my west. The temperature at this time is 51 and the wind well at this time it is still calm here. Will have to see how any wind will stack up to past November storms. In my life time the bench mark storms are 1958, 1972, 1975 on the east side of the state and 1998 here in Grand Rapids. My guess it this will not be in the same category but we shall see. Like I said with a red sunrise the temperature here is 51 and there was 1.09" of rain fall overnight and Grand Rapids is now inching towards its wettest year eve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westMJim Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Just got back from my walk. The winds have now picked up and here in my area WSW winds of around 20 MPH with gust of up to 30 MPH. Mostly cloudy now with still some breaks in the clouds and the temperature of 50. The winds are doing a number of the Oak leaves in the woods to my west and it looks like it is raining Oak leaves 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 That high in Ontario for the weekend storm screams ice storm somewhere in Michigan (as some models are showing). I hope not here though! Wrong season for ice storms. Difficult to sustain required low level temps near freezing with a warm ground. They are usually a threat deeper into winter.

This same system is currently breaking low pressure recordsin Oregon and California, and is wreaking havoc with feet of snow inthe mountains. This energy quickly becomes a strong cut-off lowbarreling straight toward the northern Ohio Valley. Recent modelruns have slowed down and gave a slight southward nudge to theassociated surface low.

Niko Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 No real cold air to be found for mby. Next week keeps getting warmer and warmer. Now, I have near 40 to low 40s for highs w rain chances into the 9th of December. Half of December looks to be wasted away as for now. Hope that changes. Who knows,..we will see.

jaster220 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 They probably combined threads because they only have 2 pages from storm#1. That’s not a slight....just an observation. Well, thread was begun by a WI member who apparently was in the game for both so just called it Thanksgiving Week Storms. That "Sub" has even fewer members who were actually in the snow with the first storm, so naturally posts were minimal. 2nd storm also mostly a miss. Sub is mainly Eastern IA over to CLE +/- a state north & south. Few there participate with others when the snow's only elsewhere and not directly at their locale. It's much better here where we banter whether we are in the game or not. 1 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...
Niko Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Clinton-- I has some storms also earlier this afternoon, but no lightning or thunder. Just damaging winds and very hvy rain briefly. Lasted just a couple of minutes. It was wild though seeing that headline for this late in the season.

St Paul Storm Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 12z Euro surf loop didn't look too impressive. How is it for yby?I think the Euro showed around 6” on the 12z. Down from around 8-9” on the 0z. Seem to be riding the line here. Could get a big snow dump, or it could be a rainy mess. But, at least there’s something to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
