12Z GEFS has the signal as well. Nice to see heights building out west which is why we are seeing this storminess popping up around that timeframe 12th/13th.

New roof install this coming week. Delaying a significant event to next weekend is fine with me.

Steady snow now, probably won't last long.

The whole run looks feasible

Just like everything in meteorology, it seems that there’s always one thing that can trump something else, albeit only in very rare cases, and that seems to be happening with that clipper.  
 

I mentioned this a week or two ago, the NAO has not helped us much in the last few years. It either has suppressed systems(yesterdays Virginia snow), and now it’s letting a clipper cut to Ottawa…we can’t seem to win with these NAO blocks. 

I’m curious about why that is? Is there some other teleconnection that is overpowering the NAO to allow these systems to cut?

At some point I hope ORH can score better than 00s NYC.

add the GGEM's 12z improvement..

what leaps out is the extreme general thickness ( hydrostatic hgts) gradient along which this paltry ( for now...) looking low is riding along.  The flow is having trouble "kinking" in time... ad nauseam, because of the faster than normal basal velocity.  But this elucidates the high potential should that correct just pubes more so... you'd wind up a rapid deepener, albeit progressive - but who's judging when begging.  Just gotta bend the flow in time and   BOOM

yeah, can see heights trending higher in the West and the trough inching into a better spot as a result

Gotta love the Euro's rendition of that 20th beast...  

ruins Xmas by rolling up the entire electrical infrastructure into a giant fur ball, then vomits it out to sea.  Here we go a pipes a-freezening

[CoastalWx]

Hopefully the euro AI ensembles are  direct vs EPS later in the 11-15 day. Supposedly they are more skillful on paper.

Impressive. But some insist that nothing is different from the last few years.   And I get it…if you don’t have any snow, then whoopty Doo right.  But I think we score something pretty soon. 
 

Edit: And that doesn’t even show the Virginia snow that fell there yesterday. So that percentage would go up a bit. 

[butterfish55]

Not only do we not have any snow on the ground, we haven't seen a single flake of snow here in TBlizzland. Definitely not a memorable December here so far

Pouring now, btw

Yeah at least if it’s all gone, so is the grid.

Nice progression. Let’s hold that

[Kitz Craver]

Little OT, but it’s pretty funny how psyched we were for T-.5” this am. Damn, it’s been desperate times, lol

Where can I see a continental view of these?  The Pivotal free site has only the US view.

Unfortunately you can’t. I was just looking on pivotal. You can see more of a wider view for the EPS on tropical tidbits, but that roles out after 3.

Sun came out and temp rocketed up to 37.9°. Taking advantage of the nice weather to get rid of some of the softwood that was a little too sporty for the inside fireplace.

Those winds will put the 4x more I needed to pay for property insurance at the new Pit to the test.

I thought T-Blizz  was joking about that.

It’s bright blue skies in Greenfield right now.

Nope, no joke. 0.0.....not even a flake (that I'm aware of). It's been quite a winter so far!!!

[weathafella]

It was a nice snow burst whitening the ground earlier but now a memory.

It’s still Autumn.

It’s looking like 1-3” Sunday night into Monday with the Clipper.
