Not sure if it will make it to the city, but it may save us from a long duration freeze tonight if it does. As it stands now (11 pm) temperature is down to 2C at YWG airport, but 0c values already noted in northern suburbs. A little milder here in the south end at 4.5C with a light northerly wind off the city.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-16347470703142813262009-06-05T21:52:03.428-05:002009-06-05T21:52:03.428-05:00Going to be an interesting nite in terms of cloud ...Going to be an interesting nite in terms of cloud trends...<br /><br />Visible satellite showed most low clouds were cellular in nature and dissipating. Exception was solid bank from Winnipeg Beach off to NNW. These clouds appear to be hanging tough after sunset and are slowly advecting south.<br /><br />At the same time, high clouds associated with warm air advection aloft were streaming in just south of the TransCanada. If anything they are a bit further north than progged by GFS. Seems like there will be an unlucky zone between the low stratus and higher cirrus clouds... question is where will this set up exactly. Do you think that bank of low clouds will reach Winnipeg Rob?Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00949425441824069047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-36733617122077861192009-06-05T17:46:01.571-05:002009-06-05T17:46:01.571-05:00Only hope for avoiding frost overnite would be low...Only hope for avoiding frost overnite would be low level clouds to continue streaming off the lakes. 850 hPa temps modify somewhat to -2 C so 'advective' freeze' in the above scenario seems unlikely.<br /><br />Low level cold (and dry air) advection will persist and undercut increasing mid level warm and moist advection moving up from the Dakotas. 700 hPa 'warm front' and associated higher clouds looks to protect areas SW of an Estevan to Fargo line tonite. By dawn Sunday, the front should be in our region with dry ENE flow at low levels.<br /><br />Lobe of Polar Vortex over Alberta will phase in with large cut off low in California (GFS has long advertized this). Two shortwaves will be ejected. LLJ of first disturbance focused well to the south over central plains on Sat nite. Upper flow then turns sharply SW and will focus second wave and LLJ further north... WC Central Minnesota may be in line for heavy precip (but not severe weather).<br /><br />We look to stay high and dry as dry easterly flow suppresses any precip until possibly the upper low wobbles in Monday and Tuesday. However, with moisture cut off well to the SE by surface low and coolest temps aloft in the Dakotas... we may just end up clouds and a few sprinkles. Dreary, cold, and on top of that boring. I can understand this happening in January, but in June... sheesh.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00949425441824069047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-65361676426106346322009-06-05T15:11:08.035-05:002009-06-05T15:11:08.035-05:00Correction: record low maximum for today is 8.3C s...Correction: record low maximum for today is 8.3C set in 1901.
