bud2380 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 GFS keeps sinking further south with the system on the 23rd. THis will likely be the system that brings many of us our only shot at a White Christmas. I'm assuming the snow cover we have now will melt before the 23rd as temps show rising above freezing by Friday. Something to watch anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 6 hours ago, Tom said: I took a look at all the GEFS/EPS members and there is still a lot of spread. I'd say about 50% of them show some sort of big storm in and around the GL's during the holiday. This is going to be one of those very difficult situations where we will have to see if the models do indeed show a stronger 1st lead wave or secondary wave that could eventually form along the CF boundary which happened back during the 1st LRC cycle. Iirc, during the last cycle, it was a last minute shift in the models and focused more on the southern stream energy. I still think there is a good chance those of us on the east side of the Sub can score some snow for Christmas. That 00z GFS run was a beauty and looks similar to some of these ensemble members below...good thing is, we have plenty of time to see how this works out. Keeping hope alive for a White Christmas... Like all our events (vs EC) it'll be threading of needles if it happens. That GFS run is par for the course of it showing the "maximized outcome" around 10 days out. Then prolly the Euro Op will take the baton and show days of "maximized outcomes" only to get our excitement level up then come down to reality about 3 days out. I've noticed this as the model trends this season. Be nice if we could see an improvement in that where the storm actually is what d5 models are advertising. Any snow at Christmas will be welcomed ofc, and my first year here in Marshall actually (2002) we had a surprise 6-8" storm on the 24th. That time JB nailed it as the MET world concensus was a SOHV event and he stuck to his guns that it would go further north and it sure did. Idk if he was better back then, or just luckier? Perhaps he focused more seriously on actual forecasting prior to taking up the torch on climate debate. 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...

Stacsh Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 GRR very confident a week out on next week's pattern/storm(s?) evolution: Amazing they know the track of a the low 7 days out!! - Turning sharply colder mid-week Upper trough across central Canada amplifies on Wednesday with arctic front plunging south. Cyclogensis along the front is expected and this low will track across southern Lower Michigan with what looks like the potential for a solid stripe of measurable snow associated with strong low and mid level frontogenesis. This bears watching as it could be heavy enough to impact travel on Wednesday. The thermal packing is impressive with most if not all of the precip expected to be on the north side of the sfc low where it should be cold enough for p-type to be snow. There is good model consensus and ensemble support for sharply colder air arriving with the passage of this low. Most the operational runs of the 12Z model cycle have 850 mb temps of minus 20C headed our way for the end of the week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have quite a bit more than you, but warm weather is going to return and the melting will commence. Very little chance of any moisture in the extended means we can only hope to keep the piles and snow on the north side of houses for Christmas.

Most times they will down-play til the event's snow has exceeded their early called forecast, then reluctantly do a belated upgrade. But then there's THIS for an event that on the face looks very phase-dependent and thus the scenario that should cause the most hesitation and hedging of bets. Go figure. If I know that office tho, his main excitement is for the blast of arctic air behind the system/front as that's what y'all up there look for to bring winter to yby's. And the cold is more of a sure thing than any storm at this range. My 2 cents.
