LP08

Edit to add: this is only half but the them for the others is generally the same.

Xmas Eve storm? LOCK IT UP almost @CAPE avatar lol

Then the trough over Alaska retros over the Aleutians and you can see the response on the west coast as ridging will start expanding into western Canada (hopefully) as @psuhoffman said earlier with the 6z GEFS. Could be rushed but end of the month into January looks far from a Nina...

Man it is nice seeing a -NAO for once. Stable too

Crushed

I mix....TOSS

Standard shotgun of to far north, miss south, and hits. Definitely a signal for 7 days of at least a storm. Will come down to spacing.

7 days to will it south and colder and slower and snowier and stronger....

Steelers fan here and couldn't agree more. I think this is what makes them look pedestrian. They haven't had a good back since Leveon left (I'm not a huge James Conner guy). They have the weapons on offense and even with Ben being on the very downside of his career, their offense would be much more explosive with the threat of any running game. Claypool is a star and the defense is legit. No one is touching the Chiefs though, IMO. I'd still go Chiefs/Steelers in the AFC title game though, but if recent history is any indicator, Steelers will lose to someone early in the playoffs.

Yeah it’s not perfect by any stretch but there is some cold available even if it’s brief. Once that vortex parks over AK it will flood Canada with pac puke. But, it’s a window with a chance.

There is definitely a window between say the 13-18 of a pretty decent pattern available. After the cutter next week, there will be some fresh cold air to tap.

That Vortex parking near Alaska on both the EPS and GEFS is not good news. For lack of a better term, let’s hope it’s transient.

Congrats Boston, sun angle

Theme so far at 12z is to tick west the storm this weekend up in New England with a better phase causing it to hang around just enough to squash any hope for the follow up. Just not enough space to do it.

Always use the colder of the two. Hasn't failed in the past.

6z Euro.

It’s a start...

48 HR hrrrrrrrrrr and throw in the hderps for fun. I think a model should actually show snow before a thread is made lol.

Ok question....where the hell should we post the Monday stuff? Lol

NAM at 84 caveats apply...quicker scoot of this weekends storm. Phasing a little too late for everything to come together but it’s not far off.

Euro gets some light snow/flurries into the area Monday.

I was just coming to post this. It's not much but having that feature stronger has already improved heights somewhat across the conus.

GEFS says we warm a bit after this cool down before setting up a very nice EPS like pattern after the 13th. Sign me up for this.
