I agree with this sentiment and I would like to subscribed to it's newsletter.
Re: Early FEB snow threat
Heres the 0z CMC iTS SNOWING BUT THIS WILL TREND ALOT MORE FAVORABLE
ENSEMBLES WILL CONTINUE TO HONE IN ON THIS THTREAT
Temp departures will aso continue to trend colder
0z FIM the trend is your friend
HPC
0Z ensemble mean and its members with a +PNA and a Negegative NAO
0Z AO forecast
Everything is coming together Folks for a snowstorm around Jan 30
No hype here...im 2 and 0 when starting snow threads
Current NAO/AO fixing to tank

Re: Early FEB snow threat
Man I sure hope you are correct, your record was great last year and I hope it continues. On a different note some good thunder storms this morning

I put my confidence level at 70 percent on a snow somewhere in TN near the end of the month. Yes nice t storms that rolled thru while it was still dark at 48 degrees here..coldest tstorm that I remember. I got a vid of it may upload it later
Re: Early FEB snow threat
Holy cow!! If the temps would cooperate, thats a perfect Winter Storm track for East Tn according to 6z gfs.

Re: Early FEB snow threat
the 6z gfs looks like a boat load of cold sloppy rain to me toot... but hopefully this can change... lot of moisture to work with, thats for sure... temps just look a tad to warm... we c later in future runs how this trends

Re: Early FEB snow threat
Contrary to popular belief that is not correct...you have to look at the character of the storm...a commahead and only a commahead (unless its anafront) in below freezing 850s and behind a 540 thickness line is all snow during mid to Late winter...This comes from experience of watching models and knownig synoptics. The Commahead means flow out of the NW mostly (Cold Advection) and in the cold sector of a LPS. This only works in winter time at mid lattitudes tho. Climo has alot to do with. The models can only tell you so muchjmundie wrote:Toot - that's the position of the 540 at the time period mentioned, but the precip is from the 12, not 6, but 12 prior hours.
That means some of that may fall as snow, but the majority does not. In the prior frame (when all this precipitation starts falling) the 540 line is back at the Mississippi river.
Sorry bud but you are the one reading it wrong. A coomahead is under the best upper level vortmax of any low peressure system whether that is a ULL or just a upperl level trough vort. This is called boreal winter recognition of the cold sector of extratropical cyclones.jmundie wrote:
If you're going to make gradiometers forecasts, you should at least learn how to read model output.

A helpful hint would be to look at the bufkit data. It will give you exact amounts of precipitation falling at what temperatures.
My helpful hint to you is not look at any small scale data such as buffkit QPF...850's etc until you are in 48 hrs of the storm
Dont make me show you again on how you can have two cold fronts in the same trough of low pressure mundie.

Re: Early FEB snow threat
there seems to be a possible over running event around 240hr. on the 12zgfs...looks kind of interesting... course its beyond truncation period.

Re: Early FEB snow threat
Cold chasing rain with backside snow, how often does that work out? not to mention its in fantasy range...toots really going out on an edge here, i hope he's right but this thread looks incredibly premature

Re: Early FEB snow threat
My record speaks for itself...that image i post above is pure comma head snow. You can diasagree if you want to but your wrong and im sure John would agree with me...You cant just look at models you have to have years of experience at climo and storm behaivor during boreal winter. Guidance data is just 50% of accurate meteorology.Snowmania wrote:Cold chasing rain with backside snow, how often does that work out? not to mention its in fantasy range...toots really going out on an edge here, i hope he's right but this thread looks incredibly premature
I started the last thread 15 days before it verified
This is the third thread that I have started for a snow threat this winter. I am currently 2 and 0 which is a 100% verification rate. Im very conident in this threat
Re: Early FEB snow threat
On the last storm, If i remember correctly you gave yourself a nice 5 day range then edited it down to 3 once the storm got closer. And If I am not mistaken you predicted a negative nao values to follow the storm among other wild things. I dont have time to scroll through prior threads but I dont think the "storm" was originally modelled as an ULL....but hey, this is the weather right...its all about how you spin it

I have no idea what your talking about...provide some proof please? A statement like that needs to be backed up? Because I truly did not say any of that. Please start another thread about this also if you think you have proof.

He very may well, especially if others don't try to make any forecasts.

Tell me this.. are you a member of tnwx?? A little off topic, sure, but I'm just curious. Nothing at all to do with this convo.
