Missed my point.  I know it is not snowing this week....the ensembles beyond 7 days stink and people should not get anxious about it.   If the ensembles light up next week inside 7 days that means we have something to track because inside a week they are worth looking at because they are more accurate as you state above.  

Ok. My bad. It kinda came across differently. You could have articulated that better in your original post.

HH Gfs came close around the 15th.

Yep. Good track but a 50-50 ridge isnt what we want lol.

I still like that period but we just cant know how all the players will interact to produce the ultimate outcome.

Maybe that system on the 15th can move into the 50/50 for a followup wave.

Just an op run a at range. The details will change. At this juncture its nice to see a storm pretty consistently showing up on guidance with the pattern becoming more favorable.

Classic +PNA on gefs starting jan 12-13. Pattern supports the OP

I’m back in Frederick after more than 3 weeks in NV. I’m officially craving a violent nor’easter. It’s go time. Tho looks like I’ll have some time prior to the pattern flip to burn calories…which I’m not completely opposed to.

It’s been pretty obvious for a while that the warmup was going to be short lived.

Yeah over the last 10 years we have seen ACTUAL shutout patterns where you roll models foward and see red for days and days...this warmup one is mild but weak with cold air not far away. I'll take this kind of a short-lived "thaw" any day!

Jan 15 on the GEFS looks pretty nice IMO. Strong +PNA with an -EPO trying to form. Some trace of a -NAO. I like how the trough is centered just to the west of us so suppression is less of a risk.

I'm seeing a slight negative tilt.

It’s even been walked back some. A few runs had us in the 70s.

H5 on GEFS at the end almost identical to the EPS. Favorable look for cold and waves tracking just to the south along the thermal boundary. That EPO ridge gets significant cold in our nearby source region pretty quickly.

I like the low heights in the 50/50 region too.
