I’d cash out. It could be 105 every day through March after that. Dec 2018 all over again.
-
Tuesday morning could be interesting for the escarpment and immediate lee.
-
You may do it, sure enough. Thinking I might bottom out around 24-25.
-
One thing to watch are the consistent pulses of southern stream energy popping up in the long range. That’s been another fly in the ointment the past few years. Last year was a parade of northern stream pieces of energy squashing the southern stream. That’s fine for a novelty event but if you want a big dog, we need less of that this winter.

12z was cold. I won’t be surprised if we get the NAO in our court here soon. There seems to be a lot of noise and the models still are processing the MJO progression. If we can score some blocking with this cold, I think we’ll pull off pre-Christmas for someone.
-
Point being, if you value any of the outputs on the models beyond roughly 3 days rn, I have some waterfront property in Murphy that I’d like to sell you.
-
I wouldn’t get too caught up in what the models do or don’t show as far as snowfall rn. We’re 2 days in to the pattern change - one that 4 days ago was supposed to last 3 days according to the models and have us near 80° next week. If we keep getting shots of cold air, laying down snowpack to the north, and have an active storm track, we’ll eventually nail one. We havent even entered the optimal phase of the MJO.

Weird night here. I suppose the wind speed stayed elevated. Went to 28, spiked to 33, back down to 30 pre-dawn.
-
Climatology aside, this is the best possible MJO progression we’ve seen in a very long time. .
-
I’d expect the pattern to relax at some point and I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re correct about Christmas. I do think we end up in the freezer again by mid-Jan….just a hunch based on another possible period of SSW.
-
Well hey….next weekend would be nearing a 7th anniversary for a storm very near and dear to the hearts of all Foothill brethren.
-
It looks like a nice snowpack is going to be laid down like a frozen carpet in southern Canada and New England. As much as I want to cash in on one of these first systems, we know it’s a process and stocking the freezer to our north only helps. Hopefully in a week or two we’ll get a real crack at a storm and not need a 1040 high to make or break it.

I haven’t seen or heard a thing from him in years. I miss seeing his content.

We lost a lot of good commentary to that board
-
Same to you @strongwxnc! Everyone enjoy the turkey and the first taste of winter.
-
Snow or not, winter is coming .
-
The only fly in the ointment this morning is the MJO. It still gets to 8, but not until we have an obnoxious loop through 7 and it heads for the COD at the timeframe I was hoping it would steer into 1.
-
I stand by my statements that the GFS should get zero consideration in anything going forward. It’s not useful even from a 500 mb level in the medium range anymore. This summer was an all-time abysmal performance with the tropics and chasing extreme warmth that only happened once. With that being said, it’s a 2 in a room of 4s. I’m not bragging a bit on the other models. Even the AIFS which sniffed out the cold Dec start has endured a windshield wiper effect.

Time will tell. At some point our crew gets to eat too. I still have a good feeling about next month. If we repeat the upcoming pattern later in winter, I won’t be as bullish for CAD regions because it would favor too much suppression.
-
Shades of last winter. We saw this time and time again where models torched at range, only to come in colder and colder at 0 hour.
-
Frigid euro ens. Just wall to wall cold.
-
It’s the Icon but it damn near delivers next week
-
Morning update: Colder. Where? Every single ensemble.

What a torch lol. Canadian with its first ice doomsday clown map of the season. .
