Maybe he can expand on this here, or in the winter discussion thread. Some of his general ideas were presented in that CWG article. I am wondering if the back half of winter might be more favorable in the WPO/EPO domains.
What wouldn't last?
You mean model projections of -EPO with a deep trough in the east? It didn't last very long lol. A few runs. We will still get our mid month cold shot(probably dry) before the TPV retros into its happy place over AK.
Look at the amplitude and orientation of that ridge. The axis is literally over top the shortwave. I doubt it's even meteorologically possible for it to do anything other than slide straight off the coast.
Not sure why you bother with it. He is who he is, and he will believe what he believes. Facts be damned.
Remember when he blamed the DC UHI on a "bad" temperature sensor?
Plenty of shortwave energy in the northern and southern branch for that period with a western ridge and colder air digging south. No way to know how the the interactions will unfold at this range. There will be the usual extreme run to run variation on the ops.
I am drinking effing Cognac. No idea why, other than it's been here as a gift. Never was a fan. Kinda tastes like kerosene. Added some diet coke and its decent. lol.
The Ravens might have had a chance had they made the change sooner. Rg3 was hobbled, and even when healthy he is basically a 4th string practice squad QB.
