Thanks, it actually starts to move towards GEPS at the end with the East Coast ridge.

Obviously cannot tell if it's a temporary reload or the change that the Mets are alluding to. 

It's signaling a retrograde towards the very end. Seems due to some increased phase 2 activity from the looks of the tropical stuff. That can be a storm signal too. Gotta watch that. There could be something lurking out there before then like brooklynwx99 is saying. Afterwards, It's heading in this direction gradually I think. At least on today's edition.

A significant snowfall will continue to impact the Great Lakes region into tomorrow. The precipitation from that system will spread eastward, with a moderate to significant snowfall likely across upstate New York and central and northern New England. Detroit will likely see its first 10" or above snowfall since February 15-16, 2021 when 10.4" accumulated.

In the northern Mid-Atlantic region, mild but wet conditions will prevail tomorrow. Colder air will begin to press southward, producing a changeover to freezing rain, sleet, and some snow. Northern New Jersey, southeastern New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island are at the greatest risk of seeing significant icing. A cold weekend will follow.

There remain hints on the long range guidance that the second half of February could experience a significant pattern change. That pattern change would lead to a return of sustained above normal readings. Much can still change given the timeframe involved.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.5°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.7°C for the week centered around January 26. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.85°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.92°C. La Niña conditions will likely persist through meteorological winter.

The SOI was +13.26 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -1.548.

On January 31 the MJO was in Phase 5 at an amplitude of 0.477 (RMM). The January 30-adjusted amplitude was 0.552 (RMM).

I don't see hints yet of warmer weather.  It all comes down to the MJO.

It’s currently in a low amplitude, so its impact is less than would otherwise be the case. One sees ridging starting to develop in the East on the latest EPS after mid-month. The EPS weeklies are even more aggressive. There’s also a temporary stretch of warmer readings during the second week of the month.

Phase 3 is cold for February

Unless it goes into 4 which now the models are taking it back into the COD, this month shouldn't be warm but we shall see.

February 2015 isn't on this list? That's a surprise-- it was frigid and snowy.

I'd be willing to bet we see a good snow event in the Feb 10-20 period.

Nice ridge amplification out west and it'll be ahead of another pattern shift.  

Good snow period climo wise as well. 

Well if there is a pattern change in the second half that would be the logical time to see another big snow storm and it's highly favored climate wise too

Morning thoughts…

It will be cloudy with periods of rain. It will also be mild. High temperatures will likely reach the middle and upper 40s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 48°

Newark: 47°

Philadelphia: 51°

As colder air arrives late tonight, rain could change to freezing rain, sleet, and perhaps a little snow. A cold weekend lies ahead. 

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 40.1°; 15-Year: 40.3°

Newark: 30-Year: 40.7°; 15-Year: 41.0°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 42.0°; 15-Year: 42.0°
