WB 6Z GFS NAO is forecasted very negative around Christmas.

Thanks. How about the Gefs and Eps if you have them handy?

 Wow nice they are both diving negative!!!!

Since we’re in grasping at straws stage, 6z euro AI has a snow/mix event after Xmas. Actually a nice setup and close to something a lot bigger. Interestingly (?), overnight EPS pushes a trough over us in the same time period and retrogrades the pig ridge in the Plains for a few days.

That ridge sounds tasty. Let's roast it.

Like you said, grasping a little here but the Euro and the GFS have the same ULL entering Cali and trying to make its way across under the ridge.  I actually thought the 6z GFS was going to do something with it but the ridge just gets bullied east and squashes it.

Hmm yeah there are similarities. Euro AI has that giant tropospheric PV in Canada provide just enough confluence without squashing it. GFS squashes it. High latitudes on euro AI otherwise look like trash at that time frame lol. Definitely a unicorn setup but not much else happening…

Yeah that’s a split flow, we’ll see if it has legs as we get closer.

If we can get that trough to back up west a lil

The Allegheny Front does weird things.

The entire ENSO thread is a tug of war between those extremes.

We can ask the same question for Christmas, apparently.

Interesting Christmas solution on GFS today.  certainly different and further south track of what appears to be a warm core clipper....I totally made that up...no such thing...
