12z EURO....

#1 Postby aggiecutter » Thu Dec 09, 2004 4:30 pm

unleashes brutally cold air into the Northern and Central plains on day 7 with it's eyes set on Texas. I got that from a pay site, so I can't link it and Plymouth hasn't update their site yet. If someone has access to the 12z EURO and can link it, I think everyone would want to see it.

I saw a reference to that over at the Wright Weather board. Yes indeed, that Day 7 looks pretty scary with the magnitude of cold air and yes it looks poised for the Southern Plains.

As Keith Jackson, legendary ABC sportscaster might say, "whoa Nellie!"

How cold?

I want a White Christmas or pre-Christmas. :froze:

OK I'll settle for cold so I can use my fireplace.

12z ECMWF screams POTENTIAL for the Eastern after the day 10 timeframe with that setup, provided that the confluence doesn't crush potential s/w ejecting from the main 500mb low cutting off in the SW states ...

one issue, is the ECMWF's bias to hang back too much energy in the SW, and if and when the 500mb low ejects from the SW, either in pieces or one main push, well ... potential, potential, potential ...

Overrunning events/CAD depictions at the 500mb level aren't very exciting to look at since we're not dealing w/a significant SFC low/500mb low ... but the issue is with overrunning events, particularly prolonged overrunning events (PD II), heights WON'T look at impressive, and in fact, look like they suck rotten eggs. BUT ... it doesn't take a 990 mb or lower storm system to be significant ...

Good post SF. The ECMWF seems to portray the potential for some overrunning events...
