@wncsnow I think I’m coming around to your thoughts about the pattern. I’m not completely out on the next few weeks producing but this current setup with a cold Alaska, slack ridge heights out west and a strong northern stream just isn’t going to cut it unless we get lucky. We need help in the Atlantic too. It stinks to have this much cold on this side of the globe without any fantasy storms but here we are. I’m sort of wondering as well, if what comes after a complete shake up, could be a better version of this. Inject some volatility and get these big blocking mechanisms in the Pacific moving around a bit.
