GEPS

2nd window.

Looks like our first window.

Another step forward on the GEFS IMO.

Happy hour.

Hey Walt! Seems to be two schools of thought. One that thinks will improve towards year end when the block retrogrades. The other that seems to believe this rainy, blocky negative PNA look will persist/keep getting delayed. Me personally, I feel that this does not look anything like 97/98 with a GOA Trough flooding Canada with warmth. I believe we eventually get a couple real good opportunities.

I thought the GEFS was much improved. EPS may be bad with predicting the PAC, but the GEFS is showing improvement day over day.

Ha it's true. On the good side the GEFS has improved.

Would be brutal is we get this rare type of blocking and have mostly rain this winter. 97/98 was that way but the PAC was much worse.

Yeah I kept stating all will be ok, and nobody worry until at least one MET shows concern. Seymour is the first.

I have been saying for days I am not going to worry about the upcoming pattern until at least one met shows concerns

Completely agree. It's funny that we could look back and say "the storm missed my area and I got a measly 22". Although if someone said I could have the same storm and miss now I would sign up in a heartbeat.

Was amazingly consistent snowfall totals wise. From Norwalk CT to New Rochelle ALL reported 22 inches. Never saw consistency like that before.

I had 22 when I was in Norwalk. Would have been 35 where I am now. One thing about central park in that storm is a portion was rain. How much would have accumulated if it was all snow? I am thinking what NE NJ got about 16 inches.

Is this similar to what happened in 12/13? We had the block in December then the snowstorms of Feb and March that year.

Thanks that's also a good point as to why this "delay" is a good thing. We want this pattern to mature as late as possible.

Yesterday

Love how the GEFS moved towards the EPS w/r/t the pac. Looks really good for even us coasties. On a side note, massive difference DOD on the GEFS MJO chart. More spread and into the COD. Today

Ha last point. As Forky alluded to -PNA can HELP in some cases. As long as it's not moderately (or the monstrosity of last December), we will be fine.
