We had blocking a good chunk of the past 2 winters. The nao is currently east-based. It isnt set to transition to a west based (more favorable) -nao until middle of next week....and even there is a little east of where we would like to see it. You need more than blocking to get a good storm. That is only 1 aspect. Eta: there is also quite a difference between a ridge in the nao and a true closed block. -

Seems aggressive most likely due to being a significant travel weekend. Better to be safe can always scale back. -

Block not as strong and stays mainly east based rather than west based as once forecast. -
