Looks like we have a chance right before the moderation of warmer air if the EPS is to be believed. Dec 4-8 is probably our time period to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of the MJO and SSTs I watched Weatherbell this AM. and saw the SST profile West of Aussie and it is still the same with the colder SSTs. Also, saw an animation on the Nino region SSTs, and while you hear about the warmer anomalies are shifting East the actual SST warmer temps and sub surface depth has the real focus still being Central Pac based. So, those areas are looking good. Interesting...You can almost see the setup now. 3rd/4th week of Dec thru 2nd week of Jan...relax....Feb 10th thru end of Feb. These are rough but the deeper we get into winter the shorter the period is between optimal mjo periods and also...8-1-2 is money in Feb...

It's 16 days out so I'm sure it will change many times but if you loop it our cold source region is being flooded with average to above average 2m temps. Definitely not a look that would provide cold air and Snow chances for us. Most of western Canada is a/or above normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to not post 2m temp maps from day 15 ens means when they don't have a clue how to interpret them.

Do you recall last year at this time I think the Euro seasonal did well, but the weeklies once again were eratic and bouncing around? Maybe place more faith in the Euro seasonals vs the weeklies.

frd Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 38 minutes ago, Maestrobjwa said: Important in what way? By keeping the PV weaker than normal and prone to displacement(s), and further weakening it can encourage colder air to move South towards us and also encourage a -AO. The opposite would be a very, very cold and powerful PV locking up the Cold up North near the pole and keeping the lower lattitudes generally warmer. The stronger the PV gets the harder to weaken it I think. Also, the more early season hits on the PV the better, as that tends to keep the PV from reaching a mature state. Some of these events as HM talks about and others are known at times as precursor events that in the past have shown a connection to future PV events such as weakenings, displacements, minor and major warming events as well.

Hopefully we can time something in this large window . Saw mention of the Dec 5-6 time frame in the Panic Room before all hell broke loose. Maybe, though I am not particularly enthused on it at this time. Sort of like the Dec 8-10 time frame myself (slight timing differences between the GEFS and the EPS). Might be a period worth keeping an eye on. But +10 day on the models so you know how that goes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of our respective regions tend to cash in when the rubber band snaps back so maybe like you said, if we can time things properly we can get another bonus event before calendar winter begins.

frd Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 This is a new model to me. I have not heard of it before. Ii would not be surprised to see March being cold and snowy. Almost seems like a general month to month retro of blocking from Greenland then shifting West in time, with the ideal month here portrayed to be March.

frd Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Hmmm, nice to see more attempts coming at the PV. Maybe in time a more robust series of waves. As John states the anomaly has been increasing in forecasts. I like the word anomaly, it reminds me of the Matrix :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 The good news is the ens are showing just about the worst possible pattern for winter wx in the conus in early Dec so it can only get better from here. There are worse patterns for our region but that Pac setup... ooof. Hope it's wrong or hope it's transient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember lower heights to our northeast is a good thing. We don't need some dark blue ball over us in January and February to snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
