Saw this. WOW....Cold is coming but with this pattern as is and the block so strong right now it is going to be cold and dry. Hope the block relaxes a bit or suppression in January will be the truth.
Capital Weather Gang just posted this, not sure how much truth to it:
Polar vortex is splitting due to a sudden stratospheric warming event - The Washington Post
Agreed but just to have a touch of wintry weather makes me happy for the start of 2021! Outside of that it can turn to rain for us to capitalize a bit on Sunday and more later in the week!
Mid month on the 12z GFS has an interesting evolution. It is a long way away but that is when I think PSUHoffman was also talking about (with the Mag and Showme posts today) the pattern kicking in ripe through February.
GFS model has backed off a bit for SCPA on the ice threat 0z and 6z both show the high to the north being pushed out quicker. We will see what today brings.
