Tom Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 I've been patiently waiting to see some consistency in the modeling and I'm starting to see it evolving where you want to see it and that is up in the Stratosphere. The Polar Vortex has not been cooperating as it had been very early on in the season but will it finally make a Comeback??? The Scandinavian ridge is going to work its magic and begin to do the dirty work on the Polar Vortex. It's going to be a slow process to see the effects over North America but that doesn't mean some folks on here will see some wintry weather over the next 5-10 days. In fact, I am anticipating several storm systems to traverse our Sub in a very volatile pattern. Big temp swings are in the cards unless you live up north, however, the cold is showing signs of pressing farther south into the MW region by the 15th or so which may allow for some members across NE/IA/KS/MO to be in the game for opportunities at seeing more snow instead of a rain/snow mix scenario. The EPO will be one of the more important driving patterns over the next couple weeks and I like what I'm seeing as all the models are showing a near neutral to slightly negative EPO pattern developing by the 11th. The GEFS have been advertising a major reversal of temps at 10mb across the N ATL & Scandinavia where you can see by the maps below. The PV makes an appearance into North America towards the 15th. IMHO, while we see this happen, the MJO should be heading back down from its major impulse into Phases 4/5 and possibly back into the "Null" Phase. IF, and that is a big IF, it can veer away from the warmer phases and back into the colder phases or even into the "Null" phase this will help suppress the SER. The modeling is showing signs that the PNA will eventually relax some by the time the PV makes its way into North America. As the saying goes, "it's all about the timing"...one of the more active periods of the LRC's cycling patterns sets up during the 2nd half of the month and "The Stars Are Aligning" in the model world. I'm becoming more convinced that the pattern is going to get progressively colder as we move along this month. I know some of you have thrown in the towel on Winter but I gotta tell ya, we still have a lot more Winter to go. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a "Legendary Finish" and a Glacier begin to grow expansively by the 20th. We'll look back at this month as being Bi-Polar...Warm first half, Cold Second Half...Jan 15th-March 15th could be one hellova ride! Similar to last year, I am on board with a majority of our Sub to experience a long duration of Winter wx in the weeks to come. Last night's 00z Euro came back with a nice storm from MO into the Lower Lakes...the EPS/GEFS are also on board with a system coming up into the OHV. Once we get passed this work week our benign pattern will be coming to an end as a more active/wintry pattern sets up shop across the central CONUS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 NOAA: The short wave feature now rotating across the Dakotas is forecastto quickly advance across Lower Mi late this afternoon, deepeningand even taking on a slight negative tilt as it works into Se Mi.There will be a compact region of mid level height falls across theforecast area preceding this wave. Isentropic analysis indicatesthat the dynamic forcing will drive a narrow region of good deeplayer moist ascent, with specific humidities of 3 g/kg beingtransported up the 290K surface. The ascent will be capped by a deeplayer of low static stability/weak convective instability. This willresult in a narrow region of moderate to possibly heavy snowtraversing the forecast area in the 19 to 23Z time frame today. 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!

westMJim Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Grand Rapids now has had 16 days in a row of above average temperatures. And during this string it has stay below 32 only on one day. For the season GR is now over 10" below average in the snow fall department. At this time it looks like it could stay mild until late January (the 25th maybe) while there will be chances of some brief cold and snow at this time it don't look to last long. As for February? we shall see. At this time it is cloudy and 32 here at my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BrianJK Posted January 5, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Also, with respect to the last system, I made a statement that I would donate to a charity if I got hit good (6"+ or 10"+). I posted in the storm thread, but didn't ever receive a response from anyone regarding the official storm total from Eagle River or a preferred charity, so I just made a $150 donation to St. Jude.

I mean the first half of the trip was 30's/40's with heavy rain and the 25"+ snowpack basically held it all. By the time I left, they were back to over 20". Quite the contrast to back here.

jaster220 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I wouldn't be surprised if we see a "Legendary Finish" and a Glacier begin to grow expansively by the 20th. We'll look back at this month as being Bi-Polar.. I appreciate your morning write-up and disco on the LR. Was out all day so I just now got to it. While I was out, I thought about how similar this winter is behaving to last year. Not entirely the same ofc, as no two snow flakes or seasons will ever be identical but similar enough to notice. Quite a bit more snow in December this winter was nice, but offset by all this torching thru the holidays (sans the NYE/D miracle snow). I know we had something like 6 weeks of little to no winter a year ago, and the snow finally showed up here on Jan 18th (tho many got the MW slider on the 12th south/SW of here). From 1/18 it was then decent winter (snow and cold were frequent and/or dominant) for about one full month. I just found it interesting that you're looking at a potential shake-up in the pattern and a possible return to wintry pattern in that same timeframe as last winter (15-20th). As somebody posted above, skepticism will remain steadfast until we see actual results, lol. Nonetheless, the "pair of seasons" theory would go well with what you've outlined Tom.

Niko Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Currently at 30F under cloudy skies. Looks like 0.5" fell this evening. Came down quite hard for a little bit. 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!

Clinton Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 00z GFS has a nasty stripe of ice and some snow but still SE of most of us. Good to see that it may trend further west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
