Pattern February Discussion Part II

Status
Not open for further replies.
I see that one member of the 0Z GEFS develops just offshore from hour 192 to hour 210 into a pretty strong storm (992 mb) while moving very slowly and precip. as a result backs in close to the SE coast before then fully moving out to sea. I suppose this is something to watch out for. Any opinions on this?
 
Here is the junk the 00z GEFS put out:

WOW,lol. All we can ask for is luck from here on out
 
So either a lot of models are wrong or the GFS has been wrong for five straight runs.

I'll go with the GFS being wrong for "5 runs" that I keep hearing over other guidance. It's own ensembles don't even agree with it for the most part.
 
Even the GFS ensemble has the low stalling out or moving very slowly.

Wow, just an absolutely textbook late winter strong-super NINO 500mb pattern on both the GEFS/EPS suites by week 2. Definitely makes sense given the superposition of an anomalous mid-latitude RWT excited by the MJO w/ favorable intrinsic extratropical variability (i.e. canonical retrogression of northeast Pacific/Alaska ridge being immediately followed by a deep Alaskan/Aleutian vortex.) The Pacific jet is liable to be on steroids, seeing numbers as high as 200-205 knots in the core of the jet after next week... Yea, that's pretty nuts...

Mid-late winter strong-super NINOs are notorious for promulgating all or nothing wrt wintry weather in the eastern US, especially over the mid-atlantic... Likely applicable in this case too

I'm just a bit confused. When you say strong NINO are you talking about El Nino ?
 
Once again, it appears that the King will not have the SE storm. The amazing disagreement continues!
 
Aannnndddddd.... it's gone

Just gone for one run after 5. Going to have to watch the next several and if it disappears, maybe it will reappear a few days form now. As Brick said a bit back, either the GFS is a genius or is on crack. We will see what it is in a few days for sure.
