frd Posted November 21, 2020 Some continuing signs this morning that we might be able to achieve a more blocked regime later in the month, and especially in early December. Also, some indications regarding higher pressures building into and near Greenland early to mid December. We all know the odds and the accuracy within the NAO domain, but well worth keeping tabs as we get closer to the holidays. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolz1 Posted November 21, 2020 Nice to see the ops showing a shuffle in the LR....certainly looking more likely we see a nice west coast ridge. Could go poof in the next few runs like we have seen so many times but if its gonna happen the ops should be picking up on it. 12z gfs continues this idea...just a different interpretation each run.

GEPS isn't bad either. Probably average to slightly below average temps. Ofc it's just on paper at this point. We shall see. eta- Latest GEFS extended is a bit more ambiguous with the pattern around mid Dec compared to previous runs. Not bad but never gets the +heights into the NAO region. Given how the last couple GEFS runs have looked, it will be interesting to see the next extended run. For those who don't know, the extended(beyond hr 384) is a feature of the 0z runs, but the extended hours have a 24 hour delay, at least on TT. So the run I am referencing here is the 0z Friday edition. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WxWatcher007 Posted November 21, 2020 +heights in the NAO region would be great but my eyes are on the PAC and to a slightly lesser extent the AO. We don’t have a shot without a serviceable Pacific pattern IMO. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EPO domain is going to be important to our chances for legit cold air outbreaks, imo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAPE Posted November 21, 2020 7 minutes ago, WxWatcher007 said: This look has been moving up in time. I made a post a couple days ago when the extended GEFS looked like this around mid Dec. I guess the problem is it might be transient and happen too early lol. Still not a lot of cold air initially available either way. To take advantage, this needs to verify, and have some persistence, in order to reload cold in our nearby source region.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frd Posted November 22, 2020 When Anthony is interested you can't help but to be more hopeful. At least a December torch seems unlikely at this point, well at least until the 22 nd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CAPE Posted November 22, 2020 As nice as these advertised h5 looks are for early Dec, there would likely only be a seasonal airmass to work with for any potential storm. Maybe we can get one of those anomalous dynamical systems that can generate its own cold air lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Need a good track, overnight helps, etc. If the PNA couples into the EPO domain, as the 18z gefs showed yesterday, we’d get some cold air moving south. Just takes time to flush the PAC puke out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I have been watching the EPO region carefully. Latest runs are trying to get some ridging up that way, but that trough is very persistent in the WPO/EPO overlap region. There are signs it may weaken/retro a bit going forward. Something to keep an eye on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
