Yeah much different in the tropics there. But if it’s 45 vs 55 and rain, who the fook really cares? 78blizz seems to root for a cooler rain.

Leon is coming it seems.

Weeklies shifted more to a gradient look. Not what i expected. A bit more SE ridging, but cold in Canada. Verbatim the cold is out west, but the east seems to be the battle ground based on the precip anomalies. Definitely not a Nino look. However, a bit more playing with fire.

Tough day in Worcester. That city and the month of December has just been synonymous with tragedy in the fire dept. As a Dad, it breaks my heart for his daughter.

It's noisy and can't really tell, but seems like something may lurk near the 24-26. Just beware the EPO.

There is a huge warming at 10mb across Siberia later in the 11-15 day. But the NAO is most certainly positive for the time being. I'm not sure if some thought that we would see blocking again, but that's not happening for awhile. This is a Pacific pattern, what appears to be -EPO driven. I think we all know the caveats. It could be very wintry if times right, cold and dry, or 80s and mullets of cold-->cutter-->cold. I'll take the chances of the cold helping, but ideally I think I want to see the ridge nudged east a bit. Maybe that happens in Jan.

Your best bet is to hope something comes around Christmas, which is not out of the realm of possibilities. With the EPO ridge cold dump, I'm also aware models may rush it to the East Coast.

I'm not sure where you come up with this. I, nor anyone else said torch for 1-2 weeks. It's a pacific driven pattern that will have lots of 40s for highs and 30s for lows. Pretty mild for this time of year. Throw in some potential for much larger + departures after the 20th to near Christmas. Like Will said earlier, not sure where all the rhetoric is coming from. It's not a paper tiger and has been on track for days. I am also speaking from an overall winter standpoint of cold and snow. We will have neither, hence the relaxation.

For what will be coming up soon after.

Hopefully uncle Leo saw that massive EPO ridge dump of cold out west and heights pumped just offshore prior to Christmas.

That was you hyping. Where will my 70mph winds be?

Get out the mai Tai and banana hammocks around the 20th baby. It’s coming.

Nice storm a year ago last night. Was quite the picturesque snow here.

That’s the hope. Whatever happens, should really set in after with a good Pacific it seems. It does have a gradient look to start it from what I saw.

Before then we should see about 5 threads and 300 posts from James about a coating on Wednesday.

It’s also started. The PAC jet is plowing into the west with the low in AK. Storminess gone except out west. All that’s left is to flush this cold which will happen later this week.

Right. It’s a mild look and the cutter prior to Christmas will boost it. The board has gone insane.

I’ll let Jerry do the honors.

Post 12/25. Stay the course.

That's almost a Leon look on the ensembles near Christmas. I'm going to call it...a "Leo" look!

yESSIR.

Whoosh.

Sounds to me it's a victory for the weenies. Protect the pack.

So are we cheering for a 45 F rain as victory next weekend?

Sick man. You got some elevation there too.
