jaster220 Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 GFS has the perfect track for Mich folks in reguards to the Gulf low. Now we just need the cold air to do it's thing, keep your fingers crossed. In my notes, if you look back at how the ULL tracked through N NM/N TX/OK/MO/IL...today's 12z GFS run did almost exactly that! Pretty incredible to see a model run flash almost an identical result. Really guys, I appreciate the positive posts, I really do. I just can't get suckered again (yet lol). The Euro looses it, the GFS finds it lol. My office says a weak clipper is in store with some moisture in the OHV, whatever that means?? There does seem to be some cold air "lurking" just to the NW of MI depending on which model you read. Guess we'll let the models continue to flash the potential phase until they just can't anymore. As posted above, I do like the way things are looking post-15th time frame. Not sure I get hit, but somebody should.. 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...

jaster220 Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 The GFS has several systems moving across the country later in the month that could produce snow. The details just flop wildly from run to run. 12z Euro is weak sauce. Has a couple weak systems that basically flat-line west to east and don't put out much snow at all and pretty narrow stips with holes in between. Nothing goes big or burys anyone outside N UP of Mich snow belts.

hlcater Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Based on how the models are looking, looks like seasonable chances for a white christmas around here. One thing I guess I like is the fact that cold air looks to be in place either over or very near the area but one thing I dont like is that the storm track isn't really set up favorably for us, leaving us cold and dry through the 15th at least. I am, however, more optimistic for a white christmas this year than I have been the past few decembers, so there is that. 3 Quote 2021-22 Snowfall: (Hiawatha) TOTAL: 10.2" (12/28: 3.0") (12/29: 0.8") (1/1: 6.4") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 Looks like an Anafront storm will provide accumulating snow midweek for many areas after the rain event tomorrow nite and into Tuesday on the EC roughly (Philly-Bos) maybe D.C.. There is going to be a low pressure area that develops along the front,which will provide accumulating snow to many areas as the front collapses towards the coast on Tuesday. Amounts and track are still uncertain. Any deviation of track could be a huge difference on snowfall amts.

Usually they are very conservative. Just wish there was colder air around during that timeframe. I guess that is a very good sign though by GRR! 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!

Tom Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 I spent most of my day yesterday outside putting up my Christmas lights and some decor while the rest of my neighborhood seemed like they were in a frenzy themselves! I took a trip to Home Depot & Menard's and they were jam packed! Everyone was out and about making their runs and picking out fresh Christmas trees, lights and decor. I certainly felt the "Holiday vibe" yesterday. All we need now is some cold air and snow.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 #SolarMin is making it's mark and quite possibly could set a Space Age record this week.... ONE WEEK FROM A SPACE AGE RECORD: 2019 is about to set a Space Age record. So far this year, the sun has been blank (no sunspots) for 262 days, including the last 25 days in a row. If the streak continues for only 7 more days, 2019 will break the Space Age record for spotless suns. Above: The blank sun on Dec. 8, 2019. Credit: NASA/Solar Dynamics Observatory The previous record-holder is the year 2008, when the sun was blank for 268 days, making the Solar Minimum of 2008-2009 the deepest of the Space Age. Next weekend, barring a sudden profusion of sunspots, 2019 will move into first place.Solar Minimum is a normal part of the 11-year sunspot cycle. The past two (2008-2009 and 2018-2019) have been long and deep, making them "century-class" Minima. To find a year with more blank suns, you have to go back to 1913, which had 311 spotless days. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 The models are starting to sniff out a -PNA pattern for later in Week 2 which fits the pattern that happened across the Bearing Sea in early December. The animation below is indicative of a transient ridge to develop between Dec 19th-22nd followed by a deep trough and storm systems through the holiday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 Nice to see the GEFS trending towards more blocking near Greenland once we get into the mid-month period...this should increase with time... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
