I think you have a better shot for that than SNE....just needs to be active. You can even pull that off without blocking.
-
2015 and to a lesser extent, 2005 more recent examples....hell, Feb-March 2011 sucked......prior to Jan 12 2011, it was on par with this season.

Regression.

This, at least sensible weather wise, has been a like a modified January 2009 stretch....bit milder and drier, but very consistent stretch with no thaws. I think there is value in avoiding bonafide thaws over a protracted stretch at this latitude....but the lack of antecedent snow killed it. As Will noted, most of the best winters have these stretches.....following the blizz of 78, we had like a month of seasonable cold and dry before a minor March event.
-
This is what I have been saying....you have to go back to 12/28 to find a high not between 33 and 41 IMBY. TBH, I would not have minded this stretch so much if we had a decent pack. The grinch ruined the first half.
-
It seems that way, but Scott is right....nothing record breaking, but once that PAC jet settles down, there should eventually be some anomalous cold. I am not as pessimistic on February as I was when I wrote the outlook, mainly given the SSW.....but we will see. I was hedging towards a Feb 2018 type month, but kind of doubting that now.

Most of it arriving on the streets of the higher terrain in central VT and NH. 0.0 interest in that.
-
I would not be surprised.....definitely at least one
-
-
Yea....pellets on my deck.
-
Coating of snow last night....strange.
-
Garbage.
-
Don't everyone all rush to post at once lol....so defeated.
-
Lol P sunny, but can't rule out a blizzard....pissah.
-
You are usually pretty reasonable.
-
Anyone dismissing snow threats at this latitude in Feb is silly.
-
I could def see pattern the first week or two in Feb like the one we are about to come out of, with a +EPO and neg NAO.....not great, but serviceable. And it may work out better w a little luck bc the pattern will reset. Probably less likely to see suppression at that point in the season w peak snowfall climo.
-
I could see that.
-
Moron. No need for that....seems volatile like DT....knows his stuff, but gets carried away.
-
Yea, I thought the second half of Dec would have had at least one more event....but I honestly called for a boring January. Composite was dry.. also saw some SWFE, which has worked out. Been warmer than I thought due to mins, but that should cool off second half of month.
-
I am comforted that scooter seems a bit more optimistic about Feb.....guy is a walking caution flag.
-
Yea, not a huge diff....but just saying hours of research do make a bit of a diff. Don't take that the wrong way, I don't mean it in an arrogant way...
-
No, I think my call is better than the avg person's guess , and is better than a coin flip.. just being honest.
-
I do see a path to a serviceable Feb if blocking hangs in....I don't mean to go Bamwx and be a dick. That is the main concern w my Feb forecast, but I am confident EPO goes bye bye. Think blocking does wane, but depends on how much of a fight it puts up.
-
Yea, Bamwx seems arrogant.
