  1. Good post by Ryan Maue about the pile of garbage models have been this winter: Ryan Maue @RyanMaue I'm taking even more interest in Weekly weather forecasting since much of it lately is awful. Forecasters have strong biases that aren't rectified leading to repeated busts. So, is winter canceled or not?
  2. we can live without a -NAO or even AO but a +EPO with those 2 will just be more of the same
  3. it sucks for snow around here and that's what most will care about. A day 10 rainstorm amidst a few colder days (and let's be honest this cold is nothing to write home about) is nothing to get excited about. Sorry. Last January's cold, although fleeting (nothing to block it in) was much more impressive.
  4. Yep, figured that. Time to root for a Feb 06 redux-that would take care of the 20 inch problem.
  5. As someone said, if it doesn't change by the end of January it probably won't.
  6. Ouch. If we can't hold onto the cold beyond a few days, we're in trouble (and even the cold next few days into early next week is not anything that's crazy for Jan) Last Jan had some short lived but much more impressive cold.
  7. what's impressive is that Dec '19 had a cold first 3 weeks, so most of the warmth was in 4 weeks....
  8. NAM trending drier-only about .3 to .4 of QPF today's run
  9. Blizzard of 96. Was forecast to miss NYC until about 24 hrs out....great example there.
  10. COD would be ok-we just can't have it shoot back to 4/5/6 like it did every time last winter or we're in trouble.
  11. sometimes persistence forecasting is the way to go-maybe we do change, but many times, breaking a bad pattern is tough to do.
  12. analogs are tough these days-different base state, warmer oceans etc.
  13. Agree partly-but a good -EPO would make the AO and NAO less important
  14. meanwhile JB says ice age: Joe Bastardi @BigJoeBastardi · 2h Been banging the drum since the holidays about the big reversal coming , the transition Jan 16-20 then rest of winter cold and stormy . Here are the last 30 days, and the JMA starting the 19th for the next 28 days, cfsv2 for the next 30. Analogs said it, models agreeing
  15. Judah Cohen says it's about over: Judah Cohen @judah47 · 13m To further elaborate completion of this troposphere-stratosphere coupling favors multiple weeks of positive #Arctic Oscillaton and overall mild weather and relatively light #snowfall. At this point hard for #winter to recover.
  16. the city is not getting 6 from this. Maybe 2 to possibly 3 inches. (which would be a huge win)
