  1. lol people were probably saying the same thing after Dec 2015 as well. wonder how that played out
  2. yeah, same thing happened in January 2015. idk if anything of note happened that winter
  3. there is just no cold air in the US. look at the heights
  4. you wouldn't see snow in 1875 with an antecedent pattern like this in mid-December
  5. not really, no. it's early and the pattern sucks in general
  6. we are in a strong Nino that is doing a good job exerting itself, which is leading to a jet extension mid-month. there is nothing Niña about that at all
  7. sorry, but this has been irking me. this is NOT a Niña-esque pattern! this is a textbook December Nino pattern… not every crappy pattern is the fault of a La Nina however, this pattern likely transforms to a more favorable one towards January, as we usually see
  8. my issue with posts like these (not yours, the tweet itself) is that: 1) this is a strong El Niño December. they are warm almost invariably 2) WHO is calling for significant cold? like you’re preaching to the choir. not a soul on this earth thought it would be cold this month
  9. seems like the transition to a better pattern begins a bit before Christmas and will continue through the holiday week. nice to see the shift moving forward in time doesn’t look good before the 23rd or so, but we should see the AK trough retrograde and the positive heights build into the NAO domain via wave breaking. not a bad spot to be in, and it gives a good launching pad into Jan
  10. people forget that jet extensions lead to +PNA. we want those jet retractions are associated with La Niña and -PNA
  11. depends on what subforum you're in
  12. they have looked the same for the last two to three weeks and have been moving forward in time. remarkably consistent, actually
  13. I don't think that's going to happen. there isn't really any support for such a solution
  14. will have to wait until Christmas onward for anything better, which is fine and has been known by most (hopefully)
  15. I think people easily forget that NYC averages a grand total of 4.7" of snow in December. that can easily be made up given that the pattern should become more favorable late in the month... not exactly worried for the rest of the winter given the weak SPV and the fact that a -NAO December correlates very well to strong blocking for the rest of the year Ninos are backloaded winters
  16. I'm not seeing that here. looks like a clean progression east. of course you're going to get some forcing lingering back as the wave progresses
  17. GEFS showing the transition well as the AK trough retrogrades and the PNA rises. SE trough starting to develop
  18. GEFS showing the transition well as the AK trough retrogrades and the PNA rises. SE trough starting to develop
  19. pretty nice to see the GEFS in such lock step agreement with the beginning of the weeklies. modeling has been very consistent on the 20-25th for a pretty wholesale change of the pattern hasn’t been getting pushed back, either
  20. weeklies are mint through mid-Jan
  21. El Nino Decembers are usually just crappy regardless of MJO, honestly
