  1. yeah, the 22-24th is a solid timeframe with established cold air, low heights over SE Canada, and some -NAO/-EPO. can see how you'd get something ejecting out of the west into cold air
  2. when you're forecasting past a week out, using ensembles and focusing on the broader pattern to point out timeframes of interest is generally the way to go. this will be taught in every forecasting classroom on the planet. now that we're a few days later on, we can see that there are two distinct waves rather than a single trough (which, by the way, some OP runs had) this is the way long range forecasting is... the data change sometimes. it doesn't make the process any less valid
  3. yeah that can certainly happen... i think early Feb looks pretty good, though, as the favorable tropical forcing should stick around for a bit based on hovmollers
  4. it seems like the opposite is likely to occur given the tropical forcing and subsequent jet extension all of the ensembles are seeing
  5. we continue to see legit CPAC and WHEM convection show up late month with legit subsidence over the MC, which should help us out. this coincides with impressive WWBs west of the dateline
  6. the GFS has the TPV farther east and the ridge comes over the top, allowing the ULL to dig more compared to the ICON
  7. can’t remember the last time we’ve seen subsidence like this over the MC… straight up P8 forcing late month
  8. this system is honestly annoying the crap out of me at this point and I'd rather just get to the 18th, which has had a better chance all along
  9. this somehow produces like 3-6” of snow. how do you even make this up
  10. usually when you have a vort of that intensity at that latitude it’s a nuke. truly incredible
  11. i mean, tick it more amped and you curl the PVA back west. it’s close
  12. it really unreal how this isn’t a MECS at first glance. that vort is insane
  13. absolutely, allows that NS piece over the Lakes to come in at a good angle... that's why the GFS is as amped as it is
  14. the +PNA ridge in and of itself argues for a coastal... that's 2.5 sigma over ID, nearly ideal
  15. this is really as large of an amped shift as you'll see on the EPS at this range
  16. the main differences between the GFS and the ECMWF are that the kicker on the ECMWF is more defined, hurting amplification, and the TPV is also closer to the trough. we'll see how those features trend overall, though, they are actually pretty similar from a synoptic standpoint now
