December 2025 regional war/obs/disco thread

EPS and AIFS-EPS both perked up -

same general premise as 1/6/22 if you recall. that was a nice little Arctic wave -
this is why it’s sometimes not as simple as worse PNA -> weaker storm… the TPV is better oriented and allows the vort to curl more on the ECMWF

the GEFS is so horribly underdispersive that the OP probably is influencing its ensemble 16 days later -
AIFS ENS actually looks pretty nice. I feel like this is more likely given the tropical forcing but who knows

isn’t most of the warmth forecasting on this forum persistence forecasting? lmao -

what would you consider “this?” i’d think there’s still a good bit of regression and generally unfavorable -ENSO/-PDO type stuff going on as well along with the compression you always mention -

not much in the way of OP run cinema -

yeah, the anomalies are always more useful -

west based blocking decaying around that time also argues for a storm popping up -

brooklynwx99 replied to Torch Tiger's topic in New England
yeah, talk about dynamic. you have an actual ridge in the west, too. stout -
12-13th might be an actual window to watch. nice to see the ridge out west trend taller, which helps shift the trough west as well

yeah, can see heights trending higher in the West and the trough inching into a better spot as a result -

the weeklies usually defer to ENSO climo as you head later into the winter anyway -
2025-2026 ENSO
brooklynwx99 replied to 40/70 Benchmark's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
personally, I usually go about saying what the pattern may call for (small to mod events) rather than saying that it can't satisfy the upper echelon of events. like how cold is it? will it be dry? what's the mean storm track like? what he said wasn't incorrect... I agree with him. I just think there's more value added saying what you can get or the flavor of the pattern itself rather stating that you won't see a NESIS level event. you will be able to do that 90% of the time -

brooklynwx99 replied to 40/70 Benchmark's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
i do think a larger storm is possible after the 15th into early Jan if the -NAO holds on and heights rise out west a bit more with help from tropical forcing, but that's way out there -
2025-2026 ENSO
brooklynwx99 replied to 40/70 Benchmark's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
who was calling for one? I don't think anybody has mentioned the risk for one... seems like light to mod events generally my point was that saying that a pattern isn't conducive for historic storms isn't really saying all that much. you can say that about most patterns. it's like saying most football players won't make it to the NFL. it's implied -

to be fair, most patterns are "hostile to KUs." they're rare and require some specific features
