Yeah, I was comparing the other 2 maps cyclonicwx.com has for the 2. My bad.
I still can't understand these discrepancies. If the different sources can't agree on SSTA now, how in Sam Hill are we supposed to trust historical maps?
The Orioles looked like the playoff Yankees in recent years. I will be shocked if they get past KC. Yankees have trouble with hard throwers, which KC has many.
NW PA has dp's in the upper 40's with NW winds.

I think we all know the history/accuracy of seasonal modeling. Nobody is saying they will be right or wrong, and understand that past performance is no guarantee of future performance. All I said was it looked like the Cfs2 tempwise. I didn't even bother to post maps. All very odd to me.
Updated Cansips is out later today or this evening. Let's see if it gives any support to the Cfs2, which continues to keep MW & East north of Virginia with average temps and precip for Dec-Feb.
I agree of it's prominence thanks to the -PDO, but the degree of the ridge breaks down in a couple of days and much can change during the winter months some 3-6 months later imho.
