The GFS is at it again, with its latest run driving the long-ways-off Dec. 23 storm right through a massive Midwest-Northeast high pressure. This is an odd fetish with the GFS long range. You'd think the programmers could address it.

CMC and GFS world's apart at hour 228.

Good news is CMC has gotten better with the storm on the 17 th

The model truncates after a certain hour-(less resolution)-that's why anything beyond day 7 or so is pure fantasy

Let's try again at 174 hours on the euro. 6+ before the coast warms up and alot more for inland.

 

It's a very active pattern. Something has to give. 

It has the weekend storm becoming the 50/50 low. So cold high pressure holds on over New England. The Euro would be a nice front end thump if it verified like that. While it’s still a long  way out, it’s something that theoretically could work in this pattern. We just need that 50/50 to hold on long enough. Otherwise, the high will scoot east too fast and later runs could correct warmer.

That one is a little bit interesting IMO. The weekend storm could possibly amplify into an effective 50/50 and pop a little ridge in Greenland.

That’s the only way to get Tues/Wed to work next week in this pattern, the 50/50 low needs to be strong and hold. If not, next week turns into a repeat of this upcoming weekend

The Euro looks like the only model showing such a strong 50/50. The GFS and CMC are weaker. So those models have less cold high pressure over New England.

How accurate is the Euro usually in these types of setups at this range? 

I don’t really trust the models with storm details like until they come within the 120hr time frame. Since small changes or errors can make a big difference.

What are the MJO and NAO projections for next week? 

The EPS has been trending to a -NAO but the 12Z Euro is considerably more blocky up there than its ensemble and is snowier here as a result. GEFS is closer to the ECMWF products with the blocking potential than the FV3 is, at least on today's runs.

Incredibly consistent climate pre 1870 as expected. No monster years and no epic fails that we are now accustomed.

The next 8 days are averaging 39.5degs., or about 2degs. AN.

Month to date is  -2.2[38.6].           Should be about  -0.3[39.0] by the 19th.

35* here and snowing, sticking to cars only.    36* at 7am, and looking more like rain--- even beach is not white like Dec.02-03.      35* at 8am, but a snow burst has whitened the beach.     34* at 9am, still some snow. (was 33* briefly)       40* by 2pm.

Our three major models are at about 4" of Snow for the 17th/18th party.

2.4 new inches bringing the months total to 14.4 inches. Pleasantly surprised.

More importantly there's been snow covered ground every day in December. 11 days and counting.
 

Snow cover has been impressive around here, I need to run some numbers later to see how much above average I am so far.
