Yeah that’s great looking. Sucks that it’s 6 days out still. I’d be getting pretty pumped if we were 84-96 hours instead
Anyways, here’s the individual plot members
That type of phased PNA/EPO ridge in the second image is a very cold pattern historically. So it wouldn’t surprise me to see a very strong arctic outbreak at some point if that verifies.
EPS looks pretty nice in the extended....that's the best it's looked in a while. Trended toward GEFS a bit.
@CoastalWxwould definitely like that western ridge anomaly max sitting over Idaho/Montana. PV actually gets shoved into SE Canada. Probably a legit arctic outbreak if that look verified.
Man the GEFS and EPS are pretty different in the N PAC in the 11-15. GEFS has a nuclear EPO ridge…almost 2015-Esque. EPS are really lowering heights in AK though there is still some cross polar flow to the N of AK
GFS actually has the 1/7 event now, though it’s a bit too far west for good snows. Still way out there, but EPS/Euro suite has been entertaining that system. So if you want something to latch onto, that system would likely be the best shot.
That stretch actually continued into January...had a reinforcement after the 1/4 blizzard. That was a pretty epic stretch if you look brutal cold sandwiched around a huge snowstorm
