We are about to enter another one. I am going on record no snow in January. Watch it happen. Strat warming, weeklies, ensembles ….we are taking it straight up the tail pipe….ok
Christmas eve temps...you just gotta laugh. might be on par with what Thanksgiving temps were. I was not thinking that would happen this year...I may be mistaken.
In that run it’s pac air. The real cold is locked up on the other side. Some of the runs tapped some of the modified aK cold but that run had no mechanism to deliver it south so it was zonal dog poop. That is my unofficial explanation.
Luck my friend. We will need luck and timing to get something. It could happen but we won’t know until it’s right in front of us. Any good looks beyond 3 days will be candyland.
It’s hard to be overly optimistic when the 540 line at 174 is no where in the US. Even Maine. It’s the op sure but that doesn’t foster much confidence.
I did that. quite a bit different each run. 10 days until Xmas. Anything could happen that day. Just the 2m temps have gone from the 30s to now the 50s in 3-4 runs for 18z 25 Dec. Who knows
The uncertainty of that timeframe is making this more interesting. Beats the steady march of warm Pac air that would arrive with Santa like we were looking at few days ago. This could be fun...or not.
Unless the hotline has some one willing to write prescriptions most of us need...then its useless....don't tell me it will be ok...just give me meds so I can fall asleep with my shoes on
I’m not ready to accept that our winter window is shrinking to about 6 weeks. We punt December now on the regular. March is a crap chute. Latter Feb we talk sun angle. Seems to get worse every year no matter the base state or ENSO state…every state seems to be the same situation. But we shall see what happens
