CAPE

Eh it won't take that long especially if the pattern transitions back to an amped EPO ridge (combined with the TPV near Hudson). Establishes a flow from the Polar regions.

The EPS and CMC ens look ok just beyond mid month- still some semblance of an EPO ridge with cold air in our nearby source region. The 6z GEFS digs more of a trough into the WPO/EPO region, which would bring mild air into much of Canada and the US. It has been waffling from run to run though.

yep

Another one is the Harbaugh doghouse. Ben Cleveland is apparently in it despite playing well when he has gotten opportunities. Daniel Faalele is not a natural guard and he struggled badly yesterday, as he did against the Steelers. Cleveland is an actual OG who is in his 4th year now I believe, but only gets to play sparingly. Mekari has been even worse and commits a ton of penalties. Ravens have other options, but- Harbaugh said today in his pressor he likes how those guys have been playing. Fuuuuck.

6z GEFS for the 8th. Still worth keeping an eye on.

low of 22

They can now limp into their bye week, with lots to figure out. Starting with the kicking situation. Harbaugh is terrible, but he isn't going anywhere unfortunately. Why was Keaton Mitchell inactive? He is an explosive playmaker that would put pressure on the defense and probably open up some bigger runs for Henry. Looks like Bateman might be out with a knee- he just cant stay healthy unfortunately. They have the Giants next- they better put a beat down on a hapless team coming out of a bye, well rested, after a terrible loss.

And 6 in a loss by 2 to the Steelers. He is probably the worst kicker in the NFL at this juncture. Crazy to say it. The offense has been humbled. They cant score 4 TDs on the best defenses. Gotta have a reliable kicker.

The Ravens should get to 10 wins by beating the Giants and Browns. That likely gets them in the playoffs. Their other 2 games are the Steelers at home and the Texans on the road on Xmas day. Good luck.

Flakes flying here. That and a bourbon might cheer me up a little after the Ravens debacle lol.

LOL at Romo saying Harbaugh is one of the greatest coaches of all time. He has won 3 playoff games since the SB in 2012.

-7 points thanks to Tucker Despite the turnovers and a bunch of penalties they probably beat the Steelers if Tucker makes 2 field goals.

The Lamar MVP talk can end now. Focus on playing well enough to get to the playoffs with a little momentum. And again, where is Keaton Mitchell? Did he have a setback or something?

What are the Ravens saving Keaton Mitchell for? Christmas?

This team is so weird. Even with the kicking problems the offense is missing on explosive plays.

They need to go for it on every 4th down inside the 40.

Well, he missed to the right that time!

Cant win close games against good teams without a reliable kicker. I said it was time a couple weeks ago. Its fucking time.

Billy Cundiff available?

Mind boggling. Every miss is left. Still cant seem to fix the issue. Might be completely psychological at this point.

Why is Channel 13 in Baltimore forcing us to watch the Commies destroy the Titans instead of carrying the Steelers-Bengals game, which is of much more interest to Ravens fans. We don't want to watch the WTFs just because they are geographically the next closest team. Probably a league decision.

Yes. The 0z EPS has more of a trough out west at the end of the run so the updated weeklies might look a bit different.

The GEFS has backed off on the idea of digging a trough out west the past few runs. The extended products imply a trough could be back in the east the last week of December.

low of 22 Clouds rolled in now up to 25. Looks and feels like snow.

The advertised h5 look for the week leading up to Xmas day on the latest Euro Weeklies. Surface temps as depicted are below avg, so perhaps not the dreaded Merry Torchmas.
