  1. Great, just what I need here lol. I like the possibility of the first freezing temp Friday night, and Saturday looks awesome with sun and maybe 50. Wednesday Night Rain, mainly after 2am. Low around 56. Calm wind becoming east around 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible. Thursday Rain. The rain could be heavy at times. High near 66. Southeast wind 5 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible. Thursday Night Rain. Low around 47. Northeast wind around 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible. Friday Rain likely, mainly before 8am. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 54. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. Friday Night Partly cloudy, with a low around 32.
  2. Sipping a Bells Winter Warmer Ale for HH- "Song of the Open Road". Pretty good stuff.
  3. There is a generally accepted connection between the easterly(negative) phase of the QBO and disruption/weakening of the SPV, but any direct correlation between QBO phase and HL blocking episodes seems a bit more nebulous. It may be that winters with sustained blocking are more associated with easterly QBO due to increased likelihood of a weaker SPV, and this leads to development of a sustained -AO. By the same token, if the SPV remains more intact, but not an absolute beast (say in a somewhat weak westerly QBO), with no coupling to the troposphere/towards the surface, periodic HL blocking episodes may still occur.
  4. I would take it because its pretty rare, and getting cold and and snow when the days are the shortest is cool.
  5. I'm good with QBO 101. But thanks.
  6. The transfer of heat from the equatorial regions to the high latitudes is necessary to build anomalous heights there/warm the upper atmosphere and potentially weaken/disrupt the SPV, so it makes sense there is a connection between the MJO and the AO. The QBO also has an impact as a modulator, and even though it is currently positive, it is only weakly so at this point. I don't know enough about the intricacies of the processes involved and the tendencies (eg location and magnitude of tropical forcing, ENSO state, QBO phase, etc). Above my pay grade. It's interesting, so keep us updated with the techno geek discussions on SW potential.
  7. Continuing to monitor trends in the LR guidance for HL +height anomalies, because it may be the only thing that can save us, along with some semblance of a decent Pacific for a time. Below is the extended GEFS for a month out- towards the end of November, and below that is the Euro(weekies) for approximately the same time period off of the free site. Crappy graphics but I think you can see the look is very similar, and would be an acceptable one heading towards Dec.
  8. You are obsessed with this once in a 40 year event lol.
  9. There will be zero accumulating snow southeast of the hills of NW Mass. Climo.
  10. How big is it? Make sure you aren't at your attachments limit. If so, delete some stuff.
  11. WPC.. Not sure what models they favor- too lazy/disinterested to read their MDD.
  12. I would go for that, but then I am at about 30" from July through Sept. Pushing 4" for October so far.
  13. Looks like the snow was a bit of a bust in Denver proper. Seeing reports of 1-3" with 4-5" on the north side. The heavier amounts were north of the metro where that band sat yesterday afternoon and evening.
  14. Yeah I am just looking for hints as we head towards December. There are some thoughts that the first part of winter may favor higher h5 heights up top, while the PAC hasn't gone full puke mode yet. CFS doesn't have a particularly favorable AO/NAO, but hints at a ridge over/north of AK for Dec and Jan.
  15. He went on that run to the SB where he became Joe Montana. Earned him the big money. Overall he was a good NFL QB, but his career numbers are pretty mediocre by todays standards.
  16. The GEFS extended range continues to advertise some improvement in the high latitudes for mid to late November. We shall see how this works out, but if there is to be some semblance of a -AO/NAO as we head into December, we should continue to see indications on guidance over the next few weeks.
  17. Pretty amazing "run" you are on up there. Late week looks promising.
  18. His main issue was footwork and mechanics while on the move, Pretty typical for a 6'6" QB.
  19. Agree, Different era today with all the rules changes favoring offense and protecting the QB. Flacco has more yards passing now than Montana and Unitas lol. The numbers Marino put up were incredible for the time, and Elway was probably overall the most talented QB I ever saw play. Rocket arm. He and Cunningham were always fun to watch.
  20. Yeah it was EPO/WPO driven. The AO/NAO was predominantly positive to neutral at times.
  21. This is a really lame snow game.
  22. Looks like the snow is sticking fine. Just needs to come down harder. Those sideline heaters are impressive though.
  23. The cold is not a factor at all.
