It doesn't happen all the time

Last year we lucked out with almost every storm and we were on the right side of the gradient pattern too. Only event that was notable that gave P type issues was the febraury storm and the wraparound snows that never came in the evening/night as the storm pulled away.

This winter though looks VERY promising thus far. currently if the weak el nino does develop for DJFM we'll have a better shot at seeing more moisture laden southern stream disturbances phasing with northern branch. We get the -EPO and -NAO to work in tandem i cant see how the snow gods dont smile down upon thee for winter 14'-15'

2011-12 initially looked promising too but never materialized. It's impossible to make any call for winter until mid-late October IMO.

Considering the cool shot coming into the Northern Plains next week, along with residual warmth to the south, baroclinicity should be rather high, yielding the high probability of a profilic rainmaker via a surface low near the East Coast next week.

Sure could use a good rainmaker in C NJ, which missed the last few rain events.

I agree in general. There is some uncertainty though, with the track or evolution of this system, depending how the baroclonic zone sets up, next week.

Oh you better check your posts from the 26th

 

The 12z ECMWF ensemble mean and to a somewhat lesser extent the 12z GEFS mean keep the ridge in a favorable position for hot, humid weather with repeated chances at convection/rain as spokes of energy ride along the stalled out frontal boundary. Although the operational models have backed off on what once looked like a very wet period, things certainly don't look stellar for outdoor activites.

What about this post was incorrect?

Things dont look stellar for outdoor actiities...you said weekend thru middle of week....wrong

Okay I'm going to get into an argument with you over semantics. The past weekend was crappy. Most areas experienced excessive cloudiness and humidity. Some areas saw storms which are always a hit or miss.
