January: Medium/ Long Range: May the Force be with Us....

Position of the 50/50 and shortwave spacing are the devily details that won't get sorted out for awhile. And likely what happens with Monday plays a key role in how it sets up for late next week. I remain encouraged that even if late next week doesn't work out, it looks like chances continue beyond. Op Euro buried one of the shortwaves that could give us a storm on the 10-11th, and then brought it up near the end of the run for a weak snow event. Lots of moving parts, but our chances remain well above normal. -
Surface based instability after dark on NYE. What a world.

Max was over DC at 0z and over Fredericksburg now? That’s essentially an identical solution for D6. Caveat that I haven’t looked at anything besides @NorthArlington101’s snowmap. -
I don’t but google translate does

For the period around the 10-11th, you can cycle through the 500mb vorticity panels of the last several runs and see what we need quite clearly. When our 50/50 low is sitting over Vermont, there’s no storm. -
Anecdotally, and probably me only remembering the hits, but I feel like often guidance strips all the precip off these weak waves in the mountains in the mid range. Then in the short range you see that they don’t totally Peter out.

Gosh I wish this wasn’t still 6 days away. Already feels like we’ve been watching this period for 10 days -

Anyone know about the degree of experimentality in the euro AI? Asking for a friend. TIA! -

As always, the warm anomalies are just of much larger magnitude than the cold. Even though by raw count there were 17 BN days to 14 AN.

20F above normal on Sunday and 15F yesterday at BWI. Only -0.3F below normal on the month with today pending.

I've been too busy (and sick) to look at any runs too closely, but in general, I really like that regardless of what happens next week (first or second chance), it doesn't look like our window is closing anytime soon. -
Bonjour les amis. Gloire aux prévisions météorologiques européennes !

When we have a pattern with plentiful cold air, I’m more willing then usual to shotgun shortwaves at us and see what lands. -

Verbatim, HH GFS has MBY below freezing from Friday evening through the end of the run. 10 days plus. I’ll take the under, but could be an impressive cold stretch. -

Yup. Need a bit more breathing room but if you flip through the last 5-8 GFS runs, you can see very clearly that the Jan 6th Storm sets the boundary (train tracks per @Bob Chill) for the 8th. That’s why this run is closer to a 2-fer than 12z. But I’m good with 6-8” with some frigid cold. -
Tough but fair

We may be HECS hunting, but we still are #1 at effortless torches

So you’re saying we need to thread the needle where we get plowable snow on the 6th and the HECS 3 days later? -

2016 mixed for me. Feb 2014 I had 18” but a good amount of slop. -
