I remember waiting until about 2 pm to watch the weather channel extended outlook. They updated that every day about that time. I would hope to see that cold air move East and it would always be stuck in time out there. It was very frustrating.
Remember that anomalous ridge north of Alaska a while back? It’s interesting to me that as soon as that area froze up the ridge was replaced with an anomalous area of low heights. I don’t understand any correlation and it could be coincidental but it is interesting nonetheless
Speaking of the MJO, I don’t have the shot that was posted in here on Monday but it didn’t end up today anywhere near where it was forecast. It has already made it to midway through 6. Notice those loops always tend to be forecast to start at about day 8 or so.
I’d be very surprised if that complete loop took place. My experience is that those loops mostly don’t happen, and if they do, they quickly resume forward progress.
Those two shortwaves move in perfect tandem across the continent. Get the ns ahead of the southern and that storm might take on a completely different look.
ie timing is the key. Pretty much what Ralph was saying lol
I mentioned that day 9-10 system this morning. It was an interesting look on the gfs ens members at 6z. Haven’t looked at anything since but you’re post caught my attention.
Can anyone give me the link that will take me where this link used to take me? It leads to Twitter now.

The whole idea speaks to the arrogance of humans.
Weve pretty much always been guided by the notion that we can mold the earth into what we want it to be instead of adapting and living in harmony with it. You could argue that it's that very notion that got us to this point in the first place.
