west slope precip totals as of 11Z fools
precipwestside
Stable layers aloft keepin a lock down on tha vertical motions dw/dz is bein chin checked. Ain’t no convection dope as me I’m just so stable an clean. Snow levels be ridin high with tha veering. sippin sizzurp and sparkin bleezies turns them anticyclonic shizznit. Opposite sign on dw/dz. who gon win?
oak
The barrier jet signal is fuckin dope in sactown. Mad isallobaric ageostrophic low level return flow evidenced. 56mph gusts a smoke at the sac international playaz club. Mo impressivo offshore (no friction on these bitches!) of CA and especially up norte of puget sound (50knots x 1.15mph/knot) at the surface, 60knots by sac 80+ knots by seattle at 850mb. I’m on a boat. HELL NO I AINT WANTIN TA BE ON NO DAMN BOAT!

Chronic event fo ya’ll west coast ridaz…
bullzeye in tha north floatin south!
wrf 30hr

wrf 36hr
mothafucka what!!!!

gfs playin fo tha same team

and 6hr lataz

hopin v-notch can get drip dropped afta deez nuts get all up that shizzle fo rizzle

watch tha red line, snow level hos hittin switchin and droppin dimes on ya’ll, specially fo tha second wave. mad moisture in midlevelz, ya’ll can thank tha homies from da islandz mmmhmm. if dynamicz workz out, we could get some spillin 40s ova tha hillz. see ralph et al 2004, and kaplan 2009a, b for more 411 on tha midlevel atmospheric beyotchin rivas hos!
zzzzzzz2

nwa droppin tropopausez like its an ak on a sunday. this advects mad isentropic pooontangtial (ahem potential) vorticity, an spins that shit up!!!! ipv thinking fo cyclogenesis in tha mothafuckin house. and im out.

jesus christ wore dreads, so shake em!
mofukas in tah atmosphere be shakin them dreads, classic late spring baroclinic steelo goin dizzown.
real deezy late winter spring seaseezy goin down. why? thank that coooooold pool smokin dubs round tha north pole. mad potential vorticity jus’ waitin to crack a bottle an make north dakota wobble. apologia word socrates. example:
gfsdt_nh2009040506f000
ery’ octopussay droppin off tha centa swirl iz sum a dat mad tropo droppin. when that shiyat goes down, hoes be bumpin heads tryin ta get in yo house. that cold pool supplies mad potential vorticitay. when tha uppa level IPV getz supaimpozed on tha lowa IPV we getz mad cyclone deeeeevelopment
when that tropo be droppin in we got hella goodies in front o this mofucka.
every term in tha isentropic potential vorticitay equation be greata than zero. stabilitay, friction an tiltin. gimme sum diabatic ass heatin an friction to hit me with tha cyclone developmtizzle.
that blue drop offshor a tha bay iz that lil shorty thats hollerin. to tha right, stretchin, convection, latent heat release, and cylonic spizzin like daven rims. convectin action warms them cloudz by releasin latent heat. hometown on my face forty five in my lap. warmin getz tha expansion. thanks to that hyposometric equation, minus rho g deezee this moves air out tha column. thats divergence. dee u dee x plus dee v dee y. makes it rain on them hos.
what?
letz look at that from tha full ass perspectiv. excuse my propa language i’m thinkin science. hyphy in tha house tho. california license plates ridin through the ATL.
we can undastand thiz shiyat froma sea leva perspective dis way. all yall gangstas know low sea level pressa means chronic straightlines and droppin stupid doo doo dum aiyeeer aiyeeers.
sea leva pressa be given by horizonta advection ( minus U dee u dee x minus V dee v dee y) plus boundary laya pumpin minus uppa leva divergence minus latent heatin. so muthafuckin what. heyers what.
baroclinic instabilitay (mad temperature gradient (blue versus red in tha above image) makes a rossby wave. thanks to IPV conservation this shiyat starts as MJO based convection and getz bounced norte to sud and back a bunch. all kindz a crazy shiyat happenz ova tha pacific. dukes of hazard doors in compton we call em suicides. el nino la nina pda blah blah. anyways the up an down droppin makes waves. rossby waves yo. as this shiyat rolls inland an tha disturbance deepens into a consolidated pressa system an hooks up wit tha polar an subtropic jet (OH BY THA MUTHA FUCKIN WAY. BITCHES THAT BE TALKING ABOUT SUBTROPICAL JETS MOST A THA TIME DONT KNOW SHIT. mad difference between subtropical tap (hits wit a clap) and subtropical jets (bout as good as tha Mets). NWS talks bout that subtropical tap, fools mix it up an think bout tha jet. no. that shit is tha SOUTH BRANCH O THA POLAR JET!) back to SLP. as that SLP dropz, the pressa gradient one ova minus rho grad p startz spinnin circulation around tha low. lil bit o boundary laya pumpin makes upper leva divergence increase fasta, an tha low deepens (gets low, to tha flo beyotch!). air goin up makes cloudz an we get the above discussed shiyat. precip ensuez. latent heatin keeps warmin shit, mass keeps bouncin outta that mofucka an SLP keeps droppin. now we got a $$ low. in front, warm air advection (why stormz be warm comin in) as tha low passes we get cold air advection (cold ass bluebird days with sticky icky pow shreddilationation). warm an cold air be gettin wrapped up like rubbas. this cause thizz dancin an changez up tha temperature gradients and thermal windz. az tha low pumpz tha brakez an slowz down behind tha max divergence tobecontinued
problem iz she’z chillin out an stallin offsho. ruc 6hr to 30 hr got tha low in tha same damn place! now whoz got tha party out der? ain’ no party like a offshore buoy HELL NO. move in beeyotch!
probly lookin bout 4-8 inches o sticky icky from this first wizzave.

real good shot to peep iz tha theta heightz from u of u
mmmmhmmm

smokin no reportin but throwin d’z

•March 22, 2009 • 2 Comments

DAMN! mofos be callin me out fo smokin and no reportin. i mean, mendo might got that endo, but that don’t mean fools got satellite intanet an shit on tha scraper! even tha blackberry got held up at tha damn ucar.edu site. damn. shit iz on fiyah now tho. ain’t that hard ta know. BUT. mights well give a damn zynopziz o that shiyat and let ya’ll know bout tha proper time to hit it and quit it.
windz ain’t too buckwild. remo’ data indicates mean velocitayz in tha 30-50mph range, gustin bout 80 topz. jet strizzeak iz south and ain’t poppin collars…
upacntr_300
BUT!!!!
Theze speeds are where mofos dust themselves off like they just stole third! max wind tranzpowt happenz at bout theze velocitayz. don’t need ta be 190mph. beyond bout 70-80 avg., ya’ll beyotchez be seein hydrometeor advection (bitchez be bouncin like tah police showed up befo tha thizz, aka shit blowz inta tha ENVY state) and tsublimation (what them hos be doin in tha mornin, disappearin inta tha mizt, like peace see ya lata). we gun be seein mad slabs, mad cornice buildin, and mad pockets a tha instabilitay. kinda dry shizzle be droppin, get yo snorkle, but we gun see sum big windloadz go hella dumb. treez gun be deeeeeeeeeeeep doh!
reeeeeeeeal nice vorticitay flowin by, mad spin like thoz daven rimz. THROW SOME D’S ON THAT BITCH!
gfs024hr_500_vrt1
hella vorticitay meanz hella divergence (in general). divergence = poppin like yo know who! We gun see if we getz that 2-tres feet comin up on ya like webber used to. lemme say it once mo. THROW SOME D’S ON THAT BITCH!
one a my favorite tracks…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r30cJTUMew
Shit should be ill in tha next few dayz. but…
what ain’t so tight fo droppin linz iz early next week once tha momentum passes on. we gun see sum ill NW to N windz.
gfs030hr_700_wnd
shit’ll be illin out tho. check this cold pool that remainz till at leazt tuez mownin…
gfs042hr_sfc_temp
so while we got some windz hammerin shit down from tha north and cool tempz, protected locs be stayin about like yo babyz mama but real hot, you know, dime pieces. expozed shit, look fo tha windbowd. mmm. we gun see some wind cruzts and crozzloadz that may get sum instabilitay to linga bouts like them fiesty beyotches in wierd zones. specially cuz thiz snow that be fallin sposed ta be in tha 15-20:1 range. hella dry. easy to move. pushin hella weight? naw. i wish tho. i got me a line that needz that sticky icky to go fo real doh. but itz at 13500 and goes at III 5.8 in tha summa time. winta time hos know ima drop it like itz hot fo real next stable phase tha be rollin by. deez nutz. all up in yo face.
progressive rossby pattern rollin thro fo tha week. i’ll hityall up manana with tha hotness. ima drop me some steep treez in the late am tho what what what!

yeah fools, we gotz sum gangstazz HIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGHHHHHHH presssa goin on, wit a bit o pressa gradient from pullin so hard on theze blunts from tha nortewezt. hella precip and some stabilization means our busta azz’z iz gittin at sum hos on tha east side beyotch!
shit iz takin a break from wilin out tho…perfect couple days to holla at a playa…
upacntr_7001

git yo self sum! just keep yo headz up when you on tha block, still ain’t safe out. windz pick up sunday with tha next lil shorty front, comin in with a bleezy, but i ain’t feelin such a large temperature gradient since we got mad snowcova and moist soils, keepin it cool. but shit, uppper level flo mattas mo! check tha remote data at 4am to decide what ta drop!

and summa dat hot shit on tha horizon again! what? keep tha game tight on watch out… howeva, shit ain’t as negatively tilted as tha O.G.fs was thizzin yestaday. just gotta watch yu know? west coast style!
gfs180hr_500_wnd
i get at cha next week after i dust myself off like i just stole third…

welcome back gangstas. we got so’mo’ hot shit fo allayall taday!

if ya peeped tha fo’cast discussin updeezy at corona time noon dirty thirty ya’ll might remember them talkin bout that precip shield with gusty winds and shit pushin east lata. we can see that well on tha imagery. i’m thinkin its cuz tha jet is startin to sag its pants to tha south. see heyah:

Somethin else o interest is that convective sheeyat from yesterday. check it out on this cloud top temp image. as thoz tops pop higha, temps drop no matter how loud you got that sean paul. that shizzle has hustled on out east, but itz cool to chin check in wit it.

now I know ya’ll heard about that sticky icky from yestaday. mad accumulation all up on ya. check those tongues on tha norte and sud sydes of tha lago. mmmm. thinkin that as that jet sizzaged on south and some o that subtropical shit got cut out that the midtropospheric river got cut down a bit, hence tha precip band iz held up on tha crest fo now. but all day yestaday we got hit like a baby nine. check it…

word. now since yall wanna seem them hos with tha low cut jeans where you see tha crack, lets git crackin fo tha nex dayz. 

since tha consenzus iz tha GFS has been gas brake dippin tha hottest, letz check it.

hella vorticity in tha midtroposphere, thats that spin contribution that can (ain’t alwayz) drive upward vertikal motion. to have that mad w you put tha spin on it. rememba that curl shit? right hand rule beyotch. k hat in tha house. for tha next 24-36 hours thers plenta o that shiyat keepin it spinnin.

gfs024hr_500_vrt

precip should continue through midshizzleday wednezday, pointin mo towardz tha southland as tha low dripdrops to oregon to smoke that willamette valley sticky. check tha RUC vertical motion. now thizz face! push them cloudz up, they be droppin it like its hot. zzzzzzzz.

ruc12hr_925_mxras tha low get ejected like chris webber, we gon see some hot shit go down in tha hillz on wednezdia. notha little sumpin comin in for little late thurs-fri. lookz like wednezdizzay, thurzdizzay, and saturfool should be tha real shit. stom skiin at itz finezt. 

lil sumpin to tell shorty tho, rememba we have hella loadin on a wack ass snowpack, specially in el sud, and that shit is gonna react when you try an stomp tha switch 7 rodeo off tha 60 footer. just cuz you grab tail don’t make you so styly that you won’t set sumpthin off. small terrain traps best be watched out fo, it dont take much to drop a fool in tha treez and break his muthafunkin head off. inboundz minigolf meanz get yo homies to check yo style and peep tha game with beepin teknologi like this 223 lil reno i gots next to my phone.

mad windz be droppin mad hot shit into pillows of doom, spshelley where y’all got that crossloadin. watch thos flutez for propagation in obama nation yo. thiz mad wind tranzport alzo can make them windloaded pillas be found way downtown a da ridgez, so check it too.

blow it up tho.

jah live.

midtropospheric thizz dancin

what up y’all. welcome to the hottest spot on the west coast for thinking about how we get down, slideways style. powered by tha realist o.g. of all, that negative nine point eight meters per second squared beyotch! you feel me? if you droppin it like its hot in tha dopest range on tha block and wanta know the dillyo with tha shit poppin up in tha clouds, tag this shit up. one hundred.

Fools will soon be rockin tha video, but for now, we’ll drop rhymes on paper.

So whats tha word with whats happenin?

hella rain! why is this? well shiyyat. we got mad subtropical moisture rollin on dubs straight from tha hawaii east side. that shit loves to roll up with mad juice. check out tha 850. see how those red lines be crossin tha black lines just east of the biggest little city?

850

thats that warm air advection keepin it hot, ho levels high, and shit sticky. mad plummage droppin southWEST off tha coast too. thats tha source. heard those t-storms? fools from da islands like to bump beats, and tha moisture from ova der is fulla instability to begin with. pump that shit over in a mad powerful jet, seen below. 150+ knots!?! daaaaaaaaaaaaamn!!!! hella lifting, hella upper level divergence in that lower jet entrance and upper exit region and you got mad POP! these events got mad moisture from bout 900mb to 550mb (hence tha midtroposphere fool), mix that up with dis jeeyat and you got mad spillover tha hills. takes hella juice to get moisture to the blc, but with a jet like this, ain’t no thang. record rain total for the day at the aeropuerto. these are tha events that contribute mad flood events, specially when theres mad rain on snow, or saturated soilz.

upacntr_250

check this shit out. that fat U of blue? as in DUUUby? thats that sticky icky oooh whee. put that in tha air! maaaaad moisture. as the low pressure zone thats chillin off the coast of BC/WA drops south a bit and kicks in some cooler air, this moisture supply will keep slangin 1/8ths at us till hump day at least. reanalysis data shows that depending on where tha low is ghostridin offshore, the norte or sud sierra gets tha chronic. its up hizzigh now, so north shore is pickin up some chrondon, but a little saggin pants and tha southland gets tha goods.

 pacvapor

aight. thats whats happenin long story short. i gots a party to hit up so im finna keepin it short. what ch’all smokin on?

manana i be puttin in those hours at tha JOB but will drop some lines about THA WORD.

holla

one love
