[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

Some interesting gains once again! Positive

Sure is! feels like the opposite of last years endless http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/nov/02/britain-storms-wind-rain

 

update more snow in Canada and Scandinavia  

 

...and north Africa! 

 

Eurasia changes 

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

Lot's of positivity around tonight, so to keep the mood going, here's today vs yesterday.  Some gains and losses around Russia, probably equalling each other out.  Big gains in Canada, particularly in Alberta and ice building nicely north west of Alaska around the Chukchi Sea..........and a few extra pixels in Scandi to boot!!!!

 

Yesterday v today

 

 

 

 

here more of what your saying!

 

 10days ice growth     closer look   yesterday/today    

 

As you can see work has started on the Greenland/Iceland 2014/15 Icebridge !! 

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

lots of snow progress to see 

 

 

 

 

Good to see it kicking off!

After a few days of losses, we're back on the 'gain train'. Finland's filling up nicely!

Yesterday vs Today

and cold there  

 

Note  snow in Moscow Monday! http://www.yr.no/place/Russia/Moscow/Moscow/hour_by_hour.html

Hope to see something on the cams  http://www.probkiizokna.ru/showcam.php?cam_id=7298

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

I see the latest snow departure is comparable or has plenty of time to become  comparable to other interesting years 

 

Note the below Latitude  60 degree snow on each 

2014 day 305  2009 day 330  2010 day 313 

 

 

It has been a good month 

[Model Output Discussion 1200 hrs 30/09/14]

If the parallel gfs keeps churning out runs like this i can see it becoming rather popular very quickly!

 

gfsnh-0-192.png

Yes its a big improvement on the old one!

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

 

IF NOAA cannot keep track of snow depth the Canadians can https://www.ccin.ca/home/ccw/snow/current

 

Its a shame the +5cm to -5cm departure is one big grey area but thanks for the link.

 

Edit. lots of green showing

Cohen is going to get a good workout this season, these figures are looking very healthy now added in 2014 on the chart just to highlight the cover vs previous yrs in the series.

Great thread on amwx on the subject with some dedicated calculation of potential msk figures. The 1976 analog just posted is superb.

Lots of snow :O Nice

Thanks for that

That's Snow problem!

Ignore the squiggle in the line which was some kind of error most likely related to the recent outages, but as you can see across Eurasia as a whole very positive in terms of cover and the gradient looks pretty useful too.

Plenty of discussion over on the AmericanWX forums about the SAI holding up close to 2009 and 2012 levels, guess we will have to wait for a final report in a few days time.

Thanks for the link, Buzzing on there (and we begin) Looks like the Eurasia chart  is about a month ahead of the worst and well ahead of most years, will be interesting to see what effect it has. Big gains as they happened shown as red http://www.daculaweather.com/4_sample_loop2.php

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

Hardly any pictures of the latest snow cover, anyone?

Hey I'm new, here and I don't know if this article has any significance here, but thought I would share it.

Forecast shows well  the expected movement south of the snow over the next 336 hours  http://fim.noaa.gov/FIM/jsloopLocalDiskDateDomainZip.cgi?dsKeys=fim_jet:&runTime=2014102300&plotName=weasd_sfc&fcstInc=360&numFcsts=57&model=fim&ptitle=Experimental%20FIM%20Model%20Fields&maxFcstLen=336&fcstStrLen=-1&resizePlot=1&domain=fim takes time to load then pause the fast animation.

I like the way the ice is pushing towards Iceland again this year, any chance of a ice bridge?!!  http://www.ijis.iarc.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/seaice-monitor.cgi?lang=e

 

Russia looking nippy in places; Moscow the same latitude as Edinburgh -9deg C tomorrow and  at the same latitude as Dundee is  http://www.yr.no/place/Russia/Sverdlovsk/Yekaterinburg/

Until we get NOAA back again any ideas for seeing  how we are progressing towards winter?

There is a 360 cam actually on the roof of the Nordkapphallen building at Nordkapp - http://nordkapp.livecam360.com/cam3/flash/main.php

Oddly enough the peninsula that can be seen just to the west, Knivskjellodden, actually extends further north.

I find road cams are good as well , must be the dramatic nature of people pushing though it when it gets bad.   Not much happening at the mo  but here are some links http://vegasja.vegagerdin.is/vefmyndavelar/?xmin=240526&ymax=678578xmax=766625&ymin=304404  http://www2.liikennevirasto.fi/alk/english/kelikamerat/kelikamerat_5.html

Some SERIOUS ice growth, great to see.

 

Long may it continue

[Snow And Ice In The Northern Hemisphere Autumn/Winter 2014]

Norway is going to try for some snow

 

.http://www.snow-forecast.com/maps/dynamic/europe?over=none&symbols=snow&type=snow.next3to6days

Fill her up I'd say! Good example from nearly a months time in 2010

 

It brings the cold nearer and It does our chances no harm as shown in  the past.

Thought I would share this link as good fun to play around with..found it whilst looking for a decent dataset that would allow some graphs to be built,not found yet, but nevertheless a good archive of SCE that can be opened and viewed via a NOAA App.

 

http://data.ncdc.noaa.gov/thredds/catalog/cdr/snowcover/catalog.html?dataset=cdr/snowcover/nhsce_v01r01_19661004_20140901.nc

 

Pity the dataset is not real time as along with the traditional views it also translates to Google Earth.

 

Couple of images attached for examples.

1979 SCE.png1979 SCE Earth.png

Beyond me but keep playing with it Lorenzo and others ,images look great and go back further than the noaa snow and ice ones for potential interesting comparisons.
