I don't agree. I would take a weak event, regardless of orientation ....the reason you have good events that were weaker Modoki, like 2000-2001 and 2008-2009 is because other, extratropical elements take on more importance with respect to the predominate forcing. 1983-1984 was decent, too....even 2016-2017.
I'm not...if it looks good mid week, then I'll have to. I have a better shot than you do, though....I think the 1/7 hit zones is the southern goal post.
Unreal....I had a good month of February, and guidance agreed at the start of the month, only to have it whiff.....now I have a torch March, which guidance originally agreed with and now of course it will be the best month.
I need a new hobby...some low hanging fruit like stamp collecting.
