  1. seems like we're coming to a consensus on the Nino strength here as the ECMWF significantly weakened the peak
  2. if the seasonals are still showing this for the October runs, then that's likely the point where they're likely right on how things will generally go. I think we are approaching that point
  3. as long as the PNA just remains neutral, blocking will be a thousand times more effective than it was last year
  4. overall, I can see the winter ending ip slightly warmer than average, but I expect February to be cold. it shows a typical back loaded winter… a Dec torch will offset the later cold departures
  5. well, that’s one of the reasons i’m a bit weenie-ish here. i forecast for a living and i need to pull in the reins at work so I let it out more here
  6. sorry, but with all due respect, i’m not sure if you can really comment on a pretty well-respected forecaster’s track record and talk about how horrible it is when for the last few years you’d talk about how every shortwave hitting the atlantic would turn into a historic Boston blizzard
  7. people are going to be shitting themselves in December. I can see it already
  8. I get this for Feb when I run mine through the wringer. pretty solidly AN 10mb heights
  9. yeah that's a sign that it's picking up on a ton of activity there
  10. it's also picking up on the stronger forcing near the dateline for September that the global ensembles are seeing... this is a good sign
  11. Nino is a touch weaker and the forcing ticked west, if anything
  12. CanSIPS still looks great! about what I would expect. a crappy start, a transition into a better pattern in Jan, then the hammer comes down once into February and March I am expecting December to torch, by the way. analogs are hinting pretty strongly at it
  13. yup. we're getting to the point where the seasonals are going to get the general flavor of the winter correct... sure, they might be a bit off, of course, but they usually don't completely flop at this point. the CanSIPS had this for last winter at this point, and it got it right generally
  14. not sure yet. it's going to come out on TT this evening
  15. nah it's just loaded all the way through. I expect December to be on the warmer side though this is also the MSLP anomaly... the 500mb will be different but should still show a potent -NAO
  16. new CanSIPS has pronounced blocking. wow that's the DJF mean, too. Feb probably looks insane
  17. I mean, that's not really a conclusion... it's a fact that it is far behind every single super event in terms of coupling. where it goes is tough to say, but it's clear that this is not like any of those years
  18. like IF this does indeed peak at a monthly ONI average of 2.0, this would likely have an MEI around 1.5, acting much more like a high-end moderate to low-end strong event rather than a canonical super event ala 1997, 1982, or 1972 2016's ONI peaked at 2.6, but its MEI only peaked at 2.1... this difference, along with the western lean in the forcing allowed for the weeks-long favorable pattern that culminated in a HECS. I don't see why it would be that much different this time
  19. this right here is why I can't understand why people are saying that this is acting like a Super Nino. it's so far behind everything else... I mean it's well behind 1986-87, which was a moderate event. it's much closer to 2002, 2004, 2009, and 2014 than any of these winters
