I don't expect a major storm up here Sunday-Monday.  But it will be fun to watch it creep north and get the MA and SNE weenies a good time.  We'll likely get ours...

These can be deals where you get a big fronto band on the northern edge (convergence/stretching of parcels) so I wouldn’t count us out yet.

Yeah EPS AI keeps the lower heights further west too. 

The irony is, in the past few winters, how often did we NOT want a piece of the TPV to phase with a central/western trough but it would do it anyway? Now we want it…let’s hope it happens this time.

Pic for reference. I’m not going to pretend to know what’s right…but I’d prefer the least confluent option possible.

12z Euro might be overdoing the 2m temps a bit :lol: 

Would be very impressive if this verified

Yeah I’ll take the over on a high of -5° here. Although 5-10° wouldn’t surprise me.

I’d love to know what the mid level temps were for 12/29/33. The afternoon high up here was -15°. That’s like 10° colder than anything else on record up here.

Had to be sub -40C stuff on a Montreal express trajectory. The perfect storm of ingredients to get those types of numbers.

A high of -11° at CON…they’ve done a sub zero high once since the Feb 1943 shot (-2 1981). But yeah…everything had to align for that 1933 airmass.

I think since living up here I have only had a couple of days where I stayed below 0F all day. Just below, nothing like 1933. My record low is -19.5F with that brief brutal arctic blast a few years ago.

Is the GDPS the Canadian Ensembles?  Or just another name for the CMC? 

The Canadian Parallel Weather Model refers to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) running a test (parallel) version of a weather model alongside its operational model to evaluate upgrades before full deployment.

So the AI version of the CMC?  Or just another Op model.

Weeklies go full weenie for pretty much all of February. I’ll believe it when I see it but that was an impressive run today. 

Here’s a few 5 day snapshots (from beginning to end of Feb)

1933 and 1943 would’ve been pretty cold up there. Franklin COOP had -40° in the 1943 one. That probably means somewhere around -30° here on the hill considering CON had their all time record low of -37°.

I need to find the closest station relevant to your climo for those years.

so, still haven't formulated an opinion of these AI tools ... but, if the assertion of superiority in that extended range is true this actually lands ideally in the best time

Something HAS to give.  Something.  This could be a great winter - its in front of us - but only if we catch one or 2 out of this.

I gotta fly 2/1 to FL to care for my MIL-was originally planned the first week of March but alas stuff happens.  She can’t be alone and my wife’s siblings are/were  there last week, this week, and next so our time is coming except since  my wife and me are the only ones with more time.  Let’s get a big dog before 2/1!  After that our winter is over.
