Tom Posted November 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 After the morning chill subsided yesterday, the SW breeze really felt nice and drove temps into the low 50's pretty quickly. The leaves are literally dropping off the trees like it's "raining leaves". The Maples are very vibrant around town as we enjoy peak colors on this absolutely gorgeous weekend that nature is dialing up. Perfect weekend to get out and enjoy this beautiful Indian Summer wx! I spent some time outside yesterday with my yardwork chores and plan on finishing it up this weekend. Low/Mid 60's are a good bet through Monday. The streak of BN days will end at 6 days today. I just saw a graphic of last year's Nov heat wave and ORD had 7 days in the 70's. That was one crazy warm spell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Gale's of November??? There's a storm brewing and it has meaningful implications for many reasons as mother nature does something fascinating next weekend. Almost to the date, when the Edmund Fitzgerald sank on Lake Superior back on Nov 10th 1975 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuzTkGyxkYI....we will be tracking a W GL's storm system. How will it form and where does it track is TBD. Nevertheless, I find it intriguing we may be dealing with a similar situation of a powerful mid November storm that snaps the wx pattern right into Winter up north. The pattern ahead looks wild. Pretty friggin' awesome to see the modeling heading towards a mid month flip towards all the analogs that have been suggesting a cold Novembrrrr. The one that stands out is Nov 1995. Iirc, @jaster220 @westMJim mentioned a few times on here of some old school GL's powerhouse storms back then. Anyhow, the Euro is struggling again and showing not much of a storm for the northern Sub while the GFS/UKIE are pointing towards a northern stream trough tracking along the U.S./Canadian border into the Upper MW on Vet's Day. I'm leaning towards the GFS and its GEFS members. It's been rock steady in the long range and as we come into the mid range period, we see more members suggesting a Sub 990mb storm around the GL's. The 0z EPS snow mean looks good up north...lay down the foundation where it means the most for seeding the cold down the road. Hopefully no snow holes this year like we have seen in past years. Is this the year when everything comes togethers...finally??? One can hope it does for us winter wx enthusiasts. Speaking of Winter, it's coming, it's no joke, it may be here sooner than we thought....both GEFS/EPS are indicating a clear Arctic connection with blocking in all the right places to deliver an early onslaught of Arctic Air into the Sub. Man, ya'll better get ready for a special delivery from Ol' Man Winter. 0z EPS 5-day 500mb mean...now that looks pretty... All of the LR clues are in remarkable agreement, none more so than the LR forecasting method I have been drawn to use and that is monitoring where the warm/cold pools have formed up in the Strat. IMO, if you study the animation below, using a 3-4 week lead time, it can suggest a 500mb pattern. For example, at the beginning of this animation right around Oct 9th/10th it shows deep blues right over the "heartland" and GL's region. Fast forward 3-4 weeks and you enter the period we just went through that delivered the stretch of cold temps from Halloween till the 5th of this month. Then watch how those "blues" dissipate quickly for a few days post 15th...to me, this is the warmer period we are currently entering, followed by what will be a deep trough that will inundate the entire eastern CONUS. Does anyone else see what I'm seeing?? I'll end with this comment...using the Strat as guidance, for those yearning for Snow...you'll be giving thanks to Ol' Man Winter right about the time when we all give Thanks, as a nation, during Thanksgiving week... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 @Tom Hey bud, you beat me to it wrt the posting of "The Wreck.." you tube vid. There's more than one out there now, but that song rendition is the best imho. I believe it to be a later studio track (for the album) with a slower tempo that allows the lyrics to be absorbed by the listener better. It also has much more refined instrumental interludes and some nice guitar rhythm. I recently heard the original radio version which I still remember hearing on Casey Kasem's American Top-40 in the spring of '76 right when the tune had peaked at #5. I think that original cut was rushed to market quickly for several reasons I won't get into here. I consider it to be the "anthem of the Great Lakes" and still take pride in the american side (aka The Mitt) even tho this song was written by our neighbor from Canada. I was also fortunate to see Mr. Lightfoot perform this song live at a concert here in SEMI back in 2007. This was after he'd come out of that long coma and started touring again. Didn't want to miss the chance if you know what I mean. It's amazing to me that a tune about a shipwreck in (what at that time was) an obscure corner of our nation could be a top-5 hit in popular culture music (SMH). While a canadien treasure, Lightfoot did study music in America (Los Angeles). Anyhow, can't help but think of those poor seamen..they didn't have a chance that fateful evening as the gales of November wreaked havoc on the surface of Gitchee Gumee. This caught my attention yesterday. Not sure if it's a sign of anything, but it's pretty unique to see the sunshine penninsula slammed head-to-toe with a non-tropical rain-maker.

I’m glad to hear we are on the same “wave length” this morning. What’s even more crazy, I was literally going to add the Super Storm of ‘93 to my post above but decided to leave it out! The pattern is so similar! “Great Minds Think Alike”…it’s fascinating how the universe connects us all like-minded people.

Tom Posted November 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 While in the spirit of storm tracking, why not dive into the LR pattern and try to sniff out some more storm systems, ay?? Alright, wouldn't it be ideal to track a slow moving, potential bowling ball right around Turkey Day??? The clues I'm seeing are indeed suggesting this to be a potential Holiday traveling nightmare for parts of the central CONUS. I'll show you what I'm seeing and why I believe this to be a storm that comes out of the "Slot", where this year's LRC has been setting up. Could it be a CO Low? Very possible. TX Pan Handle Hook? Maybe...but the idea of a west/east system is looking better. So, at this range, over 2+ weeks out...my call is for a Thanksgiving (+/- 1 or 2 days) winter storm. Let's dive in... First off, using the BSR rule as guidance, notice the "Omega Block" look NW of the Aleutians over the Bearing Sea...this correlates to an Omega Block over western Canada. Now, pay attn to the SLP around the 4th/5th that is tracking towards the Aleutians from the SW. This is an ominous #SWFlow storm track whereby I foresee a system around the 4 corners region prior to Thanksgiving and tracking slowly into the central Plains/MW by the time we approach Thanksgiving or just after. This pattern correlates to a slow mover with blocking over the top. Hudson Bay ridge? Very possible. It's not over after that bc there could be a secondary piece rotating around the base of a large trough (one of this year's LRC signature patterns) that will form in Southern/Southeast Canada and target the MW/GL's region. I gotta tell ya, I'm extremely fascinated and intrigued about where this winter pattern is heading. My goodness, I think we all are in for a treat this holiday season....there's just no way Dec ends up being a bust. I'm all in. That's all for now...enjoy another stunning Indian Summer day! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gimmesnow Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 I hope this cold pans out, I was able to downsize my snowboard boots from 11.5E to 10EEE, which is absolutely huge for a snowboarder, your toes and heels hang off the board a lot less and they get caught in the snow a lot less too. I've been salivating at them for about a month just waiting. The earlier it opens in November the better, the last half of December is packed because people are on vacation and I get a nice window of having the place mostly to myself. Just need some really cold, like in the 10s overnight, then not much above freezing during the day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What your describing would line up real well with a storm we experienced on Oct 11th. Looking like a 50 day cycle. In all honesty, its a tough call at this stage bc we have had many storms tracking out of the 4 corners this season. The difference showing up this month is the status of the EPO which is forecast to go (-) and we didn't have that in Oct, literally the entire month. In other words, @MIKEKC this is an example of how the teleconnections can influence the LRC and differentiate from one cycle to the other. On top of that, I'm also seeing so many similar storms tracking across North America/Atlantic Ocean that line up with systems back in Oct to make the process even more difficult to figure out. Regarding the cycle length, I'm currently leaning towards a shorter one around 42 (ish) days at the moment. If I see the models pick up on a system near W Mexico around the 17th, then I'll be more confident of that date. Lot's to figure out over the next 10-15 days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next 2 weeks will feature an explosion of snow cover across Canada....that's pretty... 0z GEFS look very similar and building up a widespread "field of white gold" up north and creeping down S into the lower 48. This is about as good as it gets for mother nature to cooperate. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Tis the Season y'all: Ma Nature to bring "Holiday Spirit" this upcoming weekend here in SMI. The occlusion process carries the moisture axis eastward by Friday morning followed by a pronounced dry slot and a step down in surface temperatures. Moisture wrapping around the upper low arrives Friday afternoon with additional showers before the upper low slides overhead to help cool the profile enough for a light rain/snow mix Friday night into Saturday. 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 November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 The overnight low here at my house was 36. The official overnight low was warmer at the airport at 41. At this time it is clear and 48 here and the last reading at GRR was 50. Yesterdays official high of 65 at Grand Rapids was one of the warmest on record. The record high of 71 was set just last year the high reached 69 in 1916, 68 in 1899, 67 in 1924 and 1915, 66 in 1945, 1975 and 2016. And then 65 yesterday it was also 65 in 1937, 1938 and 2009. All in all a very warm November 7th My birthday was yesterday and 2021 has been the 4th warmest in my lifetime. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tStacsh Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Hope to see a coating on the grass this next weekend from LES. My almost three year old twin boys will love it! Not sure they remember snow from last year. Looks like a roller coaster of temps for the next 2 weeks. Couple big storms traversing the Mid-West. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
