nothing hardcore in Nashville today, but extremely overcast with occasional rain is such a nice feel for the Sunday hangover carry on
With this pattern and the anomalously warm Gulf, we're bound for one of these strongly dynamic synoptic setups to yield a big time event.
Give AL all that rain. Is it gonna push into the deep south sunday night still? With the integrity that is showing on the plains or will it weaken?
Friday sucked. It literally rained all day, but I'm glad it didn't rain the 5-6+" they were saying we could get.
I'm pretty sure we got that much in a couple hours. Looks like we ended up with around 4" the last 72 hours. If I'm reading these maps right, which I'm probably not.
Re: Friday. This is what a typical central OK dryline on big severe weather days. Not perfect, but quite nice. Very moist air in central OK with a rapid decrease in dew point to the west. This is the model run wetted many panties. Here are the last 3 days of model forecasts (GFS - American model, not the best) for 6pm Friday night. Lots of variation and not a good trend...trending toward no dryline a la the other day when OK didn't get much, but TX did
I'm a Euro guy for longer term. NAM can be just as big as a cluster fuck as the GFS. Trends + ensembles helpa lot. Short term like HRRR and RAP are good
Twitter says that was due to the cold front thats coming through now(?) being so powerful it wrecks the moisture. Any chance the models are overplaying that, and it could recover in time? Also - that second system is pretty fucking powerful too, we have a chance of snow / rain Friday and Saturday. Fucking sucks, I just put in my garden last weekend
I haven't looked too closely, been off the past few days but I wouldn't be surprised. Yeah, we'll probably get 1-3" of snow tomorrow. Fuck that
