2/4 - 2/7 Multi-Wave Storm System


Tom

Recommended Posts

Looks like the second wave is becoming more influencial for us locally. Sure would like to see the trend back towards a grand finale of wave 3 but that is looking less likely.

 

Who really knows?? Extreme model bouncing continues as now the GGEM has completely flipped back NW not unlike last night's 0z run. It was almost a complete whiff S today's 12z. TOL_Wx called it - nowcast (again)

Congrats Clinton! Lions fans (I exclude myself, hehe) won't know that for a very long time!!! Model trends are good tonight as well. Hopeful you and I both see something good in this active pattern!

Thanks the models seem to be trending back NW tonight.  Have to admit the Chiefs had me worried a little, it felt like they were playing on quick sand all night.

We are going to score some snow I feel  good about this.

Hopefully...the NW trends have begun. But, yep, I feel good about this storm as well. A lot of peeps on here do well...even, Andie and Oxwx will get in on the action. Wish those 2 luck down there btw. Hope they score. They deserve it.

00z Euro also pretty similar to other models.  They all have a nice hit for parts of Texas and Oklahoma.

Congrats on the win!  That goes to all the other Chief's fans as well.  Great comeback win...that Team just never gives up and always seems to find a way to win.  Now, are the models showing a comeback as well???  

 

Nice to see the Ukie/Euro on board with a similar solution with the second wave (Wed/Thu).  It seems like the models are suggesting this storm won't come out of the deep south in one single piece of energy and want to hang back a third and final piece that ultimately tracks up the east side of the App's/EC.  Still lots of time to see how this all plays out but its nice to see the EPS also show a bit more love around the MW/Lower Lakes.

 

 

Let's not forget out our southern friends!

As Jaster has been saying, I find it very frustrating in this era of tech that the models seem to recently have a "medium range" problem.  Maybe it is part of the their DNA when computing data.  I remember Skilling saying once before that the lower rez models (ICON/NAVY) tend to do a better job in these more complex systems that have multiple waves.  Having said that, I've been watching the ICON and NAVY model in recent days and they have more or less been consistent showing a strong cutter. 

 

 

For instance, we have the NAVY model, that has consistently shown a strong cutter for the last 8 runs in a row.

 

Lastly, we have the ICON model that has been showing the same thing for the last 7 runs in a row....I find it interesting as we have all of these models at our disposal and occasionally the "lower grade" models may come out ahead of the higher caliber ones.  Needless to say, should be an interesting couple of days watching the models.

For those of us near the lake, there is a rather good signal for Lehs/LES at this range which is intriguing.  We may finally score a decent set up as arctic air is able to filter into this system and winds will be off the lake for more than 24+ hours.  Could be one of those wild cards with this storm system.

Clinton buddy!  Looks like both sports and wx have indeed trended your way in the end. What a game! Congrats on being Champs and good luck with the storm too.  ;)

Thanks buddy.  I think we are going to the parade Wednesday should be a blast and maybe some snow falling at the same time.

Well the NW trend has started and remains to be seen if it will continue. This winter has been so weird and modeling so terrible that the outcome will not be known till probably the day of and that's not a given either. Not sure what to expect but east of Chi-Town is looking pretty good at this moment.
