  1. upton has us near 50 on Thursday....
  2. yep know when to hold em and when to throw them. When models backed off the late Jan pattern change about a week out, that's when I threw in the towel personally.
  3. it's the CFS so take it for what's it worth....(or any model 2 months out)
  4. Borrowed from JB's post this AM-but the CFS for April-here comes winter! -
  5. No cold high to the north is the other issue here
  6. The 80's had some incredible cold shots. Alot of cold with bare ground back then as it was hard to get anything to line up with a storm (+NAO/AO pattern then) We've seen none of that the past 2 years. I did tell my kids the same thing this AM when they asked why it hasn't snowed much...I said, "welcome to my childhood"!
  7. nothing to support a snowstorm-every telly remains unfavorable.
  8. if the seasonal trend is any indicator-those projected temps will warm as we get closer
  9. same ol pattern-any cold shot either doesn't happen or moderates as it gets closer in time. GFS/GEFS terrible with the LR cold bias. Best to stick with Euro/EPS
  10. not a bad look-if (big if) we can get on the right side of the gradient b/w the SE ridge and the cold air, the storm track could work for us-models show the corridor from TX to NE to be wetter than normal next few weeks.
  11. the third reason is the AO/NAO-I wonder if either the MJO or the PV influenced that at all?
  12. that warm water N of Australia was a warning shot that our winter was going to have issues (warm water would point to the MJO wanting to go back to 5/6 which it has now done twice)
  13. When I see a cold pattern, I'll go cold, the last 3 years have been an inferno...deal with it. Just because the EPS has a solution you don't like is not reason to call it a terrible model when it has the highest verification score....had the model showed an ice age I'm sure you'd be saying it's great.
  14. How many times has it snowed this winter?....yeah, I'll go with more futility. EPS is the highest verifying model to answer your question. Ignore it at your own risk
  15. Pattern is so hostile-too much to fix...even if the pattern became 50% better, it might not help....confidence growing that we just torch right into March
  16. reminds me of Feb '16 when we had 2-3 events in late Feb like this. No blocking then as well, so everything cut to the west of us putting us in the warm/severe sector
  17. We have a hard time getting severe weather in July....maybe Feb is the month for severe!
  18. heavy squalls here as the warm front approaches....
  19. 11-12 was bone dry-40's every day with barely even a rain event and then the super torch in March with a few days in the 70's to near 80. This year is basically a wetter version of that year with the same well above normal temps
  20. Also-no snow in coastal locations hurts them. The "backyard snow effect" makes people want to ski/board when they see snow in their backyard-not much of that this year around here.
  21. decent model trends today with next weekend looking colder and now the weeklies-still fantasy until we're within 5 days IMO
