The Wait and See Game!

This is the most annoying part of weather for anyone that knows what their doing. Now that I had time to anaylize the 12z GFS, models are showing some consistancy now into a very cool event starting December 4th and beyond! What makes this a very difficult pattern to partake, is the details of course and how cold exactly it will get. So all's we can go by right now is, we know something cold is coming..but how cold and for how long and what about some snow? What makes me even more excited than normal is the fact that this time last year, models started picking up the Arctic Event that plagued the NW most of December. It's def. something to keep watching and as more details come out, you will be the first to know!! Here's some eye candy for KMMV (McMinnville Sounding) GFS 12z: 132 Fri 12/04 00Z 41 ° 47 ° 41 ° 42 ° NW 4 NW 22 0.01 0.00 541 561 -4 ° -16 ° 1025 86 % 135 Fri 12/04 03Z 40 ° 42 ° 40 ° 38 ° NW 4 NW 25 0.00 0.00 539 560 -5 ° -15 ° 1026 95 % 138 Fri 12/04 06Z 39 ° 42 ° 38 ° 38 ° NW 4 NNW 27 0.00 0.00 539 561 -5 ° -15 ° 1028 75 % 141 Fri 12/04 09Z 36 ° 37 ° 36 ° 35 ° NNW 2 NNW 29 0.00 0.00 538 560 -5 ° -16 ° 1028 77 % 144 Fri 12/04 12Z 39 ° 39 ° 36 ° 36 ° NNW 2 NNW 27 0.00 0.00 536 559 -6 ° -16 ° 1028 86 % 147 Fri 12/04 15Z 38 ° 38 ° 37 ° 35 ° N 4 N 29 0.00 0.00 537 559 -4 ° -16 ° 1028 94 % 150 Fri 12/04 18Z 39 ° 40 ° 35 ° 34 ° NNE 7 NNE 27 0.00 0.00 537 559 -3 ° -17 ° 1028 79 % 153 Fri 12/04 21Z 41 ° 41 ° 39 ° 31 ° NNE 7 NE 27 0.00 0.00 537 559 -3 ° -18 ° 1027 18 % 156 Sat 12/05 00Z 38 ° 41 ° 38 ° 34 ° NNE 7 NE 22 0.00 0.00 537 559 -3 ° -17 ° 1027 10 % 159 Sat 12/05 03Z 33 ° 37 ° 33 ° 31 ° NNE 9 NE 22 0.00 0.00 536 558 -4 ° -18 ° 1028 1 % 162 Sat 12/05 06Z 31 ° 37 ° 31 ° 33 ° NE 9 ENE 18 0.00 0.00 536 558 -5 ° -19 ° 1029 0 % 165 Sat 12/05 09Z 31 ° 31 ° 31 ° 26 ° NE 9 ENE 22 0.00 0.00 536 558 -5 ° -20 ° 1029 0 % 168 Sat 12/05 12Z 29 ° 31 ° 29 ° 24 ° NE 9 ENE 27 0.00 0.00 536 559 -5 ° -20 ° 1029 1 % 171 Sat 12/05 15Z 28 ° 29 ° 28 ° 22 ° NE 9 E 27 0.00 0.00 537 560 -4 ° -20 ° 1030 2 % 174 Sat 12/05 18Z 33 ° 34 ° 28 ° 21 ° NE 11 E 31 0.00 0.00 537 560 -4 ° -19 ° 1030 2 % 177 Sat 12/05 21Z 39 ° 39 ° 34 ° 21 ° ENE 11 E 34 0.00 0.00 538 560 -4 ° -18 ° 1028 1 % 180 Sun 12/06 00Z 36 ° 39 ° 34 ° 24 ° NE 9 ENE 31 0.00 0.00 538 560 -4 ° -18 ° 1027 1 % Max Temp Min Temp 850 Temp Max 850 Temp Min 500 Height Max 500 Height Min Thickness Max Thickness Min 53 °F 28 °F 10 °C -6 °C 574 558 554 536 TOTAL PRECIP: 0.18 " and Convective: 0 " 192-384 hour forecasts (2.5 degree resolution): FCST Hour Valid Time Max Temp Min Temp Td 10m Wind mph 850mb Wind mph Total Precip(") Conv.
