Any good news long range after holiday weekend torch?

 

GEFS look decent...EC ensembles are back to showing an ugly pattern for early December.

 

This is a game we'll probably be playing for a while until the model volatility calms just a bit. It's been changing run to run.

We have leftover cold in the 11-15 from the original EPO ridge but that pattern would deteriorate quickly on the EC ens. We definitely don't want that. Hopefully it shows somewhat of a reload as we get closer.

either something is wrong with the EPS maps or their is a ton of low level cold under those high 5h heights. Just weird

It's not too strange because the heights in AK are newly lowered late in the period so there is a lot of leftover cold from the initial onslaught. But you can see Canada already getting flooded with PAC air from the west in the last couple days of the run. We def wouldn't want that.

this may typify the winter actually...

 

been mentioning this before from time to time, but with large opposing correlation sources (Warm ENSO -vs- multi-decadal AA NP) being in play, at least intuitively it seems massive swings between anomaly types and pattern volatility would be probable over any locking into a pattern.  

 

we'll see.  could lock either way for 3 or 4 week stints too.  

 

but i don't think it could be objectively argued otherwise, that the current -EPO construct hearkens to the previous events.  nor the opposition in having a warm enso up  underneath.

Funny, on an admittedly anecdotal level, back earlier in the fall I had been questioning as to why the positive NAO-persistence train had a much lengthier passenger list than its -EPO counterpart, aside from generic el nino climo.......which if ever was to be called into question it would be this year.

Interesting.

It's about 3 inches in ORH, but around an inch only for BOS....of course a standard deviation is more than the mean, so no sense in expecting average in any given year. :lol:

 Yup.  April is even crazier (or more stochastic?)  Mean is 5.2", CV is 174%.  Top 3 of 17 Aprils:  37.2", 15.6", 6.2".   Bottom 3: Zero, zero, zero.
