Well Hello Transitional Season...

[Dustin Wilcox]

Anyone been keeping an eye on the long range models lately? Since about the 25th of January they have been REAL consistent in breaking down the West Coast ridge with some major troughs working across the lower 48. This seems to be on its way to verifying with a continued agreement in this pattern change. Obviously model to model and run to run variances still exist, but some massive systems are progged to work their way across the Country. First weather maker late this weekend, into the first part of next week, and then the models have an absolute monster system just over a week out… Don’t believe me look at the 18Z GFS …. The first system looks to lack the cold air to be a major winter weather producer, the second may be a different story however. It's at least going to be fun to watch and see how the models handle this throughout the week...

Ive been watching these for a couple of days too. As far as my local area goes todays runs put less precip in our area but does strengthen the systems overall. At least there is something to watch again!
