There should be a reload of that block, which will provide another window beyond the first week of January.

2010 and 2020 were just about identical to this season at both the 30 and 50mb level. January 2021 was also very blocky, but it was more of a N Atl thumb ridge than a true Greenland block, which is easier to get porked with.
-
Not only was 2010-2011 one of the best ENSO analogs, but it was a dead-ringer for QBO.
-
2001-2002 was an utter abortion. You are thinking of 2002-2003.

My January forecast composite:
-
Right, which isn't a problem when the baseline tropical forcing is already favorable.
-
I buy that, especially in January....maybe rushing it.
-
I think it would struggle to impart much deconstructive interference in the milder phases right now, but I would rather play it safe in keep it dormant after skirting into 8, which is what "looks" to happen. This colder, stormier flip is DEEPLY rooted in the tropics...its not some hail-mary wave break from a recurving typhoon.
-
7 is fine my for my area, but it gets dicey south of here. Frankly, I am okay with the MJO taking a nice, long nap given the where the background forcing is headed with la nina right now.

When you have 5 bullets per day, may as well shoot them on preferred weather lol
-
I would hedge higher because crazy shit is going to go down with climate change.
-
Funny how @snowman19hasn't been quoting as many of his tweets of late...he'll be back for the thaw in January lol

I'd say the odds of NYC pulling a 100" season in your lifetime are about 30%.
-
December is def the time of year that I am most receptive to minor events...I am with Kev on that. Getting wintery set ups to coincide with the solar nadir and the holiday season is special.
-
What is your record, 80"?
-
I'm not sure enough people appreciate how high the ceiling is this season....the most likely outcome? No. Did I forecast it? No. But this season has about as a high of a ceiling as you will ever see due to a pretty unique set of circumstances around the globe...I will bet some place east of the Mississippi gets a top 5 season.

Boxing Day with the low-level deformation shifted slightly inland would have been great for me.
-
Sign me up for what followed it.
-
But that would have been 1995-1996 if it had blocking.
-
I feel like we could have an 07-08 type of assembly line, but with a better Arctic.
-
Just for Bob.....means nothing to me, aside from conveying the range of possible outcomes.
-
And........?
-
We are due for some good December regression juju.
-
I am okay with this...famous last words, but at least I know it won't be one of those powdery, subsidence queens with the coastal front pinned anywhere from scooter down to the canal. I'll take my chances on potentially playing naked twister with the coastal front and enjoying some paste.

I agree with him. It's not a frigid pattern.
