Rainshadow Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 I have been noticing a pattern that the frigidaire GFS cold bias is not as cold with NAM support. This is not aligned as Barney comes before the -NAM. Far be for the GFS to be too fast. The MJO is also rolling over favorably, so we will see. In a typical scenario, the duration is way overdone even if the absolute minimum is not bad. If the -NAM disappears, I will start cuing Teletubby episodes again.

The Cliff Notes version: Tom keeps on telling me I get hot and bothered with all of those 90 degree threads in the summer. I keep on telling him, well those 90 degree threads get thousands of looks vs the <100 looks for these Barney cold threads. He tells me since all of those looks are his, it is quality over quantity.

Rainshadow Posted January 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Have to wait for PHL min for week, but lowest 1000-500mb thickness was 523 on the morning of the 20th. Cold bias GFS stopped forecasting too low thicknesses at 06z on 18th, about 48 hours prior. It was forecasting Barney (blo) thicknesses up to about 4 days prior. Lowest predicted thickness was 501, longest duration of consecutive Barney thicknesses was 72 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainshadow Posted January 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 About three days from "Barney" cold bias GFS finally started forecasting representative thicknesses and minimum temperatures. Prior to two days before, there were no, none, zippo, nada, niente, blutarsky, zero GFS runs that predicted a bottom thickness higher than reality.
