Stormchaserchuck1 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 12z GEFS is a CONUS blowtorch through the end, hr384. At that point we still have a +300dm Aleutian ridge and +EPO. It will take some time to detox them both in the best case scenario. This pattern surprises me a little, before Dec we had 21/29 months of +PNA since 2023 (CPC), and since the 23-24 El Nino ended, we still had 12/20 months of +PNA in negative ENSO. Now all of a sudden we have a Strong La Nina pattern from the N. pacific to the continental US. I guess Fall AAM is important, as that is the difference between this year and last year - this year we had a -AAM Fall, last year it was more positive 2nd year -PDO's, when the PDO doesn't work year 1 (+PNA last Winter in deep -PDO), correlates at 1.24x normal year 2.. It's deep negative this year so that could have been another sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this continues... -Feb will not be a wall to wall torch -We will achieve near climo snowfall -We are likely out of business through at least mid January -The coldest anamolies from normal are firmly behind us for the remainder of the entire season I don't know if you draw positive or negative conclusions from this, its something for everyone. The models will continue to be volatile day to day. If anything, to my very untrained eye the pattern progression is moving pretty fast this year and perhaps suggests we wont be out of the game for weeks at a time. I sure do wish we could have timed a better pattern for the holidays. Early December cold is mostly wasted for us. This is a good point. We are following 05-06 closely right now. There actually aren't many deep -QBO/weak-negative ENSO matches to this year, but 05-06 and 89-90 fit. Feb 2006 went cold when Feb 1990 was warm, but they were both warm January's. I do think there is more -AO tendency at 90N this Winter that neither of those analogs had. Will be interesting to see how the pattern evolves going into mid-January.

Bob Chill Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 1 hour ago, Maestrobjwa said: Maybe I've asked this before...but given this I'm even more surprised surprised at your call for 18" in the contest thread. I mean my layman eyes saw that as a bit bullish for a nina, but what do I know? Lol Pretty simple thoughts based on 2 things that my intuition keeps bringing up. 1) I expected blocking to be on the friendly vs hostile side and 2) we're over due for a decent coastal that gets everyone. Not a giant storm as they are pretty rare. Just a decent coastal that has a pretty uniform 1"+ of qpf and drops 8-12" across all 3 airports. I also don't think this nina is all that strong nor will it influence the winter door to door. Both of my snowfalls had a southern connection to precip already. Northern stream action is the bulk of our snowfalls and storm chances in every enso phase. Jan 2016 came onshore in the pac nw. The main shortwave was northern stream. But it tapped the southern stream when it mattered and went nuts. People get too hung up on northern stream being anti snow. It's only anti snow when the gulf or Southern stream is closed for business. So far this year, gulf moisture tap has been decent. I don't see why that won't continue at times. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm not sure why I should care so much what's going on at 10 mb when the AO is trending slightly negative at this point on the same model.

Sorry guys. But I did negotiate for a huge storm next month, so there's that. I'm in Florida until the 3rd. Can we extend one day... you could probably use a day to recover anyways right?
