I told you there was big potential for that window.  Latest EPS and GEFS runs have a signal there.

CAPE storm attempt #2? I'm here for you buddy lol. LFG!

00z Euro / EPS and AI-EPS just dump all the cold air over the eastern 2/3rds of North America through the start of February. Looks like a legitimate vodka cold we all dream about as kids.

Before we get to that, let's get past the potential goon system on the 29th. That is a vigorous NS  vort diving thru and popping a low off the coast. Both gfs and euro have it.

Is this where I can extrapolate the NAM for February 2?

Your fantasies are different than mine, but who am I to judge as long as it's between two consenting adults?

[Bob Chill]

This weekends storm is happening during a falling AO. That's less common than when the AO relaxes from an anomalous drop. This is only one piece of puzzle but the large scale features are on our side for a chance at another solid storm late Jan/early Feb

"At least it's not hour 300+"  

But that would be a wild progression. Imagine this weekend's storm, icebox cold, a 1-2 inch refresher or cartopper on Thursday and then a deform beatdown the following weekend.

There are some in here who should not read this exchange as it is for adults
