I'm sure a lot our minds on this forum work this way, but here's my hope...
I feel like when we are in a great snowy cold snap, there is always that background noise of pattern change and "enjoy it while it last, it's gonna warm up.." What I'm hoping to hear soon is, -EPO is coming, WPO is setting up perfectly, MJO is moving towards a great position. These are the things that I hope set us up for a nice wintry stretch to end December and last through the new year. Then it can torch all it wants.
