November Medium/Long Range Discussion

[Weather Will]

When you go out to Dec. 6, you see that that the model is really struggling with the pattern.  Some members torch; some members cold.  So we are in wait mode....WB 12Z EPS

Warm will rule

SER asserts itself in the latest WB weeklies. (Today versus yesterday's run.) Whether a blip or the start of a trend away from a December to remember TBD.

Lol not what I would call a SE ridge.. Follow the height lines. One could argue that would produce a more favorable storm track for our area than the previous run, which might tend towards being too far south. The biggest difference is the ridging poking into Greenland, and it isn't really that much different. I pay less attention to the colors on these super LR tools. Look at the height lines and imagine the flow.

I think the differences are mainly noise on such a forecast product like the weeklies that far out.

His map is misleading because it’s starts at Dec 2 which will include a probably severe
Se ridge which will skew the map

Exactly, when you start the 30 day on the 5th, you factor out the last few days of the SE ridge in early December.

30 day temps on the Weeklies beginning on the 5th look good as well.

Fascinating the cold in the SW and the Baja. The deep troughs on the West Coast this year, and the last several, have been an issue leading to a SER.  That 15 to 45 day map is interesting showing a cold anomaly from Alaska to the Baja.

Don’t worry. I always start off strong when there’s nothing to lose. in 45 days. I’ll be falling apart.

Urging caution when going out beyond 180hrs in a Nina. But alas, majority here are already aware of this.

You cannot disprove a theory with feelings. Human quality-of-life has improved tremendously over the past few centuries (medicine [germ theory], electricity, water treatment, agriculture etc...) because (some) humans used science (data, evidence, repeatability) to solve problems instead of emotion, superstition, gut feeling etc... Human perceptions are biased and must be validated with observable data to draw reliable conclusions. Fortunately people like you (non-fact-based) do not steer social and technological policies and developments. You undoubtedly have other ways to contribute to society, but assessing the state of meteorological modeling isn't one of them.

This guy hasn't been playing with a full deck since day one.. ignore and move on

The favorable H5 look for December has slowly degraded on models over the last few weeks. 

-early Nov models had a persistent -NAO through Dec.. that's really changed to positive around the end of Nov/early Dec

-A few days ago there was a strong +PNA on models. That has about disspeared

-The -EPO was looking like it would be a strong pattern a week ago. It's still going to happen, but now as strong and persistent as before. By the 2nd week of December it's probably gone

The best thing going for us is the Stratosphere warming, which usually "downwells" in +30 days at this time of year... puts a possible -NAO pattern for the 2nd half of December.

End of the 0z EPS is not looking good lol
