That's awesome! I posted a few hours ago the h5 from the op GFS 18z. To my eyes it showed some opportunity. Glad to hear the Para has it. That's probably our best shot over the next few weeks.
I wouldn't give up on the first week of January.
H5 looked better on the 18z. Need to get the shortwave neutral further west.
Something to watch atleast.
A few runs from time to time has shown a low developing enough south of us to deliver some snow after the initial rain. Hoping that starts showing up again on future runs.
Lots of encouraging stuff today but we need something to track asap. It feels like we are driving down the field on every drive but we end up settling for 52 yard field goal attempts
That Hopkins misses every time
It's been a few years since we had a decent pattern heading into prime climo.
Pattern isn't perfect but it's damn good compared to the past few years where we were model watching praying for a pattern change which was always 2 weeks away.
It appears that January could afford us several chances. Seems like we need 3 or 4 opportunities to hit on 1.
Potential is there for good January. Alot just comes down to caous and luck.
Most Meterologists don't change their forecast every 6 hours lol. If we ( this board) were in charge of forecasting for NWS people would have whiplash lol.
I think DT is very knowledgeable ,his delivery is undesirable though lol.
