  1. This is essentially what I went with...even if the slightly colder risk wins out, it shouldn't be too far off....CPC is on the same page, as well.
  2. Yea, I could see that....like 1987, which is also a good analog, but I select two week windows of time, so still would be a pretty good call from that lead time.
  3. Great chance of that for you IMO.
  4. George, that was actually good analysis......very objective and level-headed....be skeptical of colder evolutions until the jet slows...all blocking does is prevent December 2015 and keep the warmth from being absolutely prohibitive to threats.
  5. This is minor.... I'm talking maybe normal instead of +1 to +2, but blocking alone won't dramatically alter things because the PAC jet will be active until at least the later third of the month or so.
  6. I never "abandon" or change the final outlook product....graded as is. However, the tone of the update is to simply imply a slightly cooler risk due to more blocking. But I also stated it will still be fairly mild until the PAC jet slows down. The most important note was the implication of this early blocking for later in the season.
  7. Update on December and what it may entail for the rest of the winter. https://easternmassweather.blogspot.com/2023/11/december-preseason-impressions-appear.html
  8. I could def see a thaw in mid January, but not concerned about the season. January may need to average + for forecast to work.
  9. I honestly feel as though my primary concern is busting too positive on the seasonal NAO.
  10. I never drive with the windows down, so maybe that is why....I know it doesn't smell at my sister's house, so it must be a confined area.
  11. Yea, its def closer...long shot, but better than tracking every 0.1 rise in el Nino.
  12. That is some more shapely cirrus, that run.
  13. Exactly....its like having the surface low near the BM, but the upper levels being elongated to over the Berkshires. You wouldn't disregard the upper levels in favor of the surface when forecasting synoptics, so why some are doing it with respect to ENSO in seasonal forecasting is beyond me.
  14. Sometimes the fangs are the truth.
  15. Yea, I think in this case we have pretty good idea that were are porked several days in advance.
  16. Looks like Sunday evening is when that mid week SW is sampled.
  17. The issue is plenty correctable at this rage, but you need immaculate timing to have the Pac wave slow down.
  18. Too bad that energy is crashing the NW....this is the problem the first half of December and why its an uphill battle. Its not prohibitively warm, but that Pac jet isn't allowing the flow to amplify enough.
