tombo82685 Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 worst time of the year imo. Under performing storms, over-performing dews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWAwx Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Nothing more challenging than long range forecasts! I think we have an interesting some ahead with the state of the El-Nino and tropical activity. All the analogs next two weeks suggest warmth to end the month. And it could last longer.

tombo82685 Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Nice battle for next weekend going on. Gfs on the cooler temps parade with some rain chances, which I hope is right. While the euro is low to mid 90s which I hope isn't right. EPS are mid way point but more of a lean towards the gfs in terms of temps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colonel_kurtz Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 no need to even look at the timestamp, you know it's thunderstorm season in Lower Bucks when you see a map like this off to another dreadful start this year, would need an entire zoo of Tombo's yawning animals to correlate to convective season in Lower Bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainshadow Posted May 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 At least in terms of wetness, aside from the far SE, most of the CONUS has been wetter than normal the last 90 days which is encouraging at least from a start to keep a heat ridge from feeding upon itself. I don't know if that SE ridge popping up can be assisted by what is going on in FL/GA, we will see going forward. Alot of the GFS fantasy 90s fade as we get in closer to forecast time. Of course some of this is business as usual for that model, but at least in a backhanded sense it is encouraging to see most of them get purged even before they leave la la land.

Storms suck, and heat and high dews over perform. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg ralls Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Aw man, I love the boiling black sky before a good thunderstorm or photogenic mammatus. I hear ya on the high dews & anything above the mid-80s for temps though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWAwx Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Gonna see what happens when the next MJO takes off. Perhaps a repeat of this weather in 3-4 weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the stout MJO again after its one month hiatus. The correlations in our area with temperatures gets sketchier this time of year. It looks like phase 6 being warm and dry is the one with the strongest correlation near us. Even the current phase 8 or 1 is not supportive of the ongoing southeast ridge. Glad to see you posting!

With shorter wave lengths you can get blistering heat waves with -nao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbs Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Three summer forecasts from cohen's blog: NMME, C3 multi-system (European models) and AER. Nino and relatively late vortex breakdown the main factors in the AER forecast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainshadow Posted May 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Pinch me, a GFS run with no 90 degree days predicted: Last night's EPS mean after Thu the 30th had all of its predicted highs in the 70s. Definitely would not bank on all non 80s, but it is a great signal for no 90s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking for myself, I would take both. Did you get rained on at 5 pm yesterday? 2nd GFS run in a row with no 90s! Woo-hoo! I'll need smelling salts soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
