Perturbed Member Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 Looking like the GFS may be the warm outlier here. The poor model consistency is a bit annoying but things are still looking pretty good. It also looks like the Columbia basin will be getting cold even if the upper level evolution is a bit suboptimal. I think the odds of very cold offshore flow at PDX are looking good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 17 minutes ago, ..... said: It's not warning trends man. It's ******* reality. The way the models show the cold building in and dropping down over Montana and then spreading WEST are insane. RARELY does a pattern like that verify. What gets us cold is a nice Omega block out in the Pacific shooting north and a SE ridge to steer things over the west coast. We don't have that. The driver is the Greenland Block. Just watch it on the loops. Reality is what reality is. No amount of Jim sky screaming and telling everyone something historic is coming makes it any more likely to happen. Oh, and my daffodils don't want cold and snow. Wrong. That’s just one of several potential conduits for arctic air out there. 1968/69, 1942/43, 1978/79, 2013/14, etc, did not follow that “classical” progression. Could probably list several others as well. Heck, Nov 2014 was a legit +PNA/+WPO and was a top-5 Nov airmass for the 21st century. In fact, -PNA by itself rarely does the job (late last month was possibly the deepest -PNA cycle in a half decade, and it didn’t do squat). Need additional help either upstream or downstream..former is easier but the latter can work too. Just need to time it properly with the vacillation cycle in TPV/breaking anticyclones. This progression is particularly bizarre, but has worked in the past. Very close to 1969. 3 Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacomaWaWx Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 Models need to make their minds up already. One thing I can say is the gfs has been the most inconsistent recently. Euro had been inconsistent up until the last few runs. The euro model seems to be locking in on a more consistent solution much better...and that’s a good thing as it’s a more reliable model overall and has been showing some pretty cold runs.
