Zoomed look at today's mesoscale vortex on
#LakeMichigan
. They often occur under Arctic Highs with cold air/weak winds where local land breezes in the bowl-shape of the southern end of the lake helps shape the vortex.

When I first started in this business, resolution of weather models was so coarse, they didn't even "see" the Great Lakes and couldn't predict lake-effet snow. Now we have models that explicitly predict mesoscale vortices. THAT'S AMAZING!! 09z HRRR 5hr forecast.

Don't get many days in the 50s in February in Buffalo, so today I took mom out to her homestead, The Farm, for some "quality time" on the side-by-side. I was concerned to take a 102 year old out like this but her reply when I asked was "SURE!!!"

Same process that forms lake-effect snowbands on Great Lakes is producing wind parallel clouds in the GOM today. Concave shape of Mobile Bay creates convergence zone that leads to that "stronger" cloud streamer. Prevailing winds are from the north.

I normally do NOT put out 10-day model loops. However, I couldn't resist showing the "pitching machine" throwing one storm after another across the U.S., each one bringing down colder and colder air in
their wake.
