    Some snow mainly for places just to our SE.

    Low solar and many -NAO years that decade. I did a year by year analysis of the h5 composites and many of those winters were impressively cold in the midlatitudes- some Nina, some Nino, some Neutral. Some of those looks.. just hard to imagine seeing them today.
  3. CAPE
    Didn't realize he was predicting a +PNA. That's a switch lol. But yeah we shall see if the hints on the latest guidance of a +PNA is a mirage. If that's real, the mid month period might be workable. Most extended products have the NAO trending towards neutral/negative just after mid month fwiw.

    But it's been clear the rest of Jan was toast minus front end slop chances for the NW crew this week. You have been honking about Feb 4-7 for days now. Well yeah, that is still 10 days out. The ens means continue to advertise chances for early February.
  5. CAPE
    I missed that one lol. If we have a ++NAO, that likely means there is a +AO, so that's not favorable for cold and snow chances here. There are exceptions, like a -EPO/+PNA driven pattern, which can bring the cold but frozen events tend to be light to moderate from weaker waves, and amped systems tend to track inland or cut west.

    It's not complicated, so that's a plus. We always have the failure modes.

    There is a neutral PNA look towards the end of the EPS and GEPS runs, with hints of it trending positive. GEFS suggestive of this too. Have to see how that plays out. Looks like the NPJ retracts a bit but haven't looked into it enough to get an idea if that is something of persistence going forward. It sure would help the mid month period.

    Not much has changed on the means. The GEFS and GEPS hint at an initial wave on Feb 1, then another one right on its heels a day later with colder air involved. I didn't dig into the members so it could just be timing differences, but the upshot is there is a chance for some frozen as the cold arrives in the Feb 1-3 window. There are other chances beyond that with colder air in place. We begin to moderate around the 10th as the TPV lifts out and the NAO trends significantly positive.

    You own a mountain dude.
  10. CAPE
    That is different for sure. At least we have an alternative failure mode on the table. The cutter thing got boring ages ago.
  11. CAPE
    I get it. This 'song and dance' happens almost every winter though. At least the ensembles provide some degree of stability when tracking patterns in the LR. Lay off the op runs lol.
  12. CAPE
    For this threat window. Go play video games if you don't want to properly participate in the discussion lol.
  13. CAPE
    12z EPS has a similar look with a wave and cold pressing
  14. CAPE
    First chance.
  15. CAPE
    The nature of the beast dude. Nothing new, esp chasing snow chances in the MA in a Nina. We all know what to expect. Why poop?
  16. CAPE
    Lets review: The modeled period of interest with actual cold in place for days now has been Feb 1 at the earliest, to perhaps the 10th. Strongest signal for a wave or 2 has been the 2nd through the 8th. That really has not changed.
  17. CAPE
    Aligns well with recent runs of the ens mean.
  18. CAPE
    not a Barney fan?
  19. CAPE
    Awesome only 240 hours out! Pretty much on schedule. This has been the time frame for a chance of something (other than mild rain) per guidance for awhile.
  20. CAPE
    Pumped up HH run. Got me a 120 now.
  21. CAPE
    12z Euro and 18z GFS rolling out on WB at the same time. I need some weed.
  22. CAPE
    12z GEFS depicts a few minor disturbances moving through after the cold comes in with the wave around the 2nd, and then a more significant one for the 7th.
  23. CAPE
    Right around Feb 2nd is where the period of potential starts, and this look has been consistent on the means.
  24. CAPE
    HP is always on the move with progressive flow. That thing largely owes its existence to confluence from the strong TPV lobe rotating through, and there is nothing to slow its progress either.
  25. CAPE
    Fwiw the latest edition of the Euro weeklies suggest a transition to a workable h5 look for the last week of Feb. Maybe we bookend the month with crap in the middle.
