50.4 for my high which I think is the third coolest of the season

Seems like they won’t load on my IPad. Worked on my laptop.

The Weeklies do mirror what @John1122shared earlier in the winter or fall thread(from Grit).

The ridge finally broke down and it snowed mainly west of the Continental Divide today. This has been a huge reason why it wasn't snowy

The can kicking has paused...and the control and ensemble are now singing the same song as noted above. They have recently been on opposite sides of things with the control winning the battle! I say that, because we kind of hope the control might be right today. Here the 32 day control run - temps are accentuated BN by heavy snow which falls after the 20th. In general, temps are 10-15 BN regardless of snow cover. This would rival any December cold outbreak. The second is the 7 day ensemble mean which is centered on Christmas. The 500 pattern is nice, especially after the first week of December. LONG way out there, but fun to look at... For those of you who are new OR are visiting from other forums, we often put maps to brainstorm/discuss, admire, or just for future reference. They are NOT forecasts at this range. I prob should have placed this in the winter thread! But.....I already have this ready to go, so will leave it here. If a mod wants to switch it to winter, no problem. Anyway, for new folks (or visitors) we kick a lot of stuff around in this forum. We are often not afraid to be wrong which I think is what makes this a great place. You can take a risk. Another great thing about this subforum is that we have no incentive to drive numbers with posts that you will see on social media which are designed to get clicks. If you see us post a map, we are just adding to the conversation. Never be afraid to ask a question. Unless the poster has a red tag(an actual meteorologist! thank you to those folks!), the rest of us do this as a hobby. Now, we do have a couple of folks here who have chosen not to get a red tag who are also mets. You will figure out who they are pretty quickly. I am definitely not one of those folks - just a fun hobby.

I don't know why there aren't any windmills in the industrial park by Hazleton. It's always windy in/up here.

The life we all want I told my wife she may get sick of life in SLK if she’s walking outside in early May to snow on the ground and flurries in the air.

We should build our economy around the wind. It seems to be our best output Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk

Haha I've stopped keeping track. It's too much work lol

Yeah, was just looking at those. If right, may be a fun Month.

Also the PNA is likely to go + in that period, at least historically I think 95% of -EPO/-PNA E QBO Decembers had a +PNA January

It looks like we "might" (famous last words) have some consolidation w/ the Euro Weeklies. It looks like the cold is delayed, but now holding for the last three weeks of December. Christmas(for now!!!) looks very cold on both the ensemble and control. It has been a while since the ensemble and the control have been singing the same song.

Well there’s usually the lag right..so that would be plausible.

Weeklies are awesome if you like winter weather

Weeklies are awesome.

Quite possible

Would not surprise me if 12/20-1/20 is really the period where it happens and 12/1-12/20 ends up normal or not overly cold.

Woof

He’s lurking…not Stein…not Phil…not even Wolfie’s estranged daughter Greta… He knows what we desire most and is hell bent on making sure it stays bottled up in Siberia. His heart’s an empty hole…

This looks great. More members further south this run.

I guess 11, and 12, 18, and 19 and 20 , and 21 doesn’t count?

This is funny.

True, although we cant guarantee that any given winter won't turn into 2020/2021 or even better.

“Delayed” is the polite way of denying “poof” in the weather world I’ve come to learn over the years. It’s like that saying, “how did you go bankrupt? Real slow at first, and than all at once.

Some of the area airports still gusting to 40mph or higher on the NWS OBS page.
