    That MJO phase 7 doesn’t look like it’s happening beyond a blip. Synoptically it’s not long enough for the pattern to conform…

     

    I think we go back in the freezer and phase 8 and it’s wagons south for the big snows… Colder and Drier with latitude…

    La Niña and the calendar reigns…

     

    Not happy to report but that’s how it looks now. Maybe a great period for heavy snowfall in the most southern sections of the forum.

     

    If you’re looking for big snow you want to be in the mid Atlantic during next two weeks.

     

    This is completely different than my three-day-ago thoughts…but oh well. 

    MJO will be flying through phase 7 like you said.

    I think the key next week will be how deep a trough we can get out West. All winter long the models have been too aggressive in digging those troughs beyond 168 hrs. We actually need the Southeast ridge to put up some resistance so the overrunning doesn’t get suppressed.

    The EPS doesn’t dig as much energy into the west so it’s less amped up with the overrunning in the East. It’s been a while since once of these overrunning set ups produced more than 4” from EWR to ISP. But we saw how back in December we finally got two clippers to work out for 4”+.

    Maybe it’s possible we can finally get a decent overrunning event here. But it’s still way too early to know for sure exactly where the nest overrunning zone sets up. 

    We really want to get to within the 120hr mark for the details to come into clearer focus. At least the potential is there. Whether the potential gets realized is another story. 

    EPS diggs less energy west so overrunning is further south than GEFS

    Phase 8 should help
