Looks like the Blue Norther of 2021. Texas froze and If I remember correctly, The East never got “cold” during that outbreak. 

nope - DC was still in the midst of its multi-year streak where it didn't get below 23F.

I'm starting to worry that the Jan 14-17 window is getting can kicked a bit since the 6-10 day eastern trough is getting less strong and the ridging over it is stronger. But the good news is MJO is starting to curve into 7 around day 15. So the pattern change after the 18th is probably real. Still not counting us out for the mid-Jan system, but there could be temp issues east of the BR.

GFS is trying for the midweek thing next week.  Surface looks warm if but that southern energy wraps up earlier we have a shot from DC east at least.  Thereafter is def intriguing even though we don't have a storm to track yet.  PAC and temps are good.  Need blocking and southern stream energy.

You know things are trending in the right direction when there isn’t 2 pages of cliff jumping this morning.

Having looked at the GFS...I wouldn't draw that conclusion. 

 

ETA - at the end of the run there's cold in Ulaanbaatar.   If I remember last year, that means something for us in February or March.

If you are looking for a long shot window to try and track in the medium range - GEFS ens have a couple of members pop something next Monday/Tuesday behind the weekend system. Looks kinda interesting on the OP even if nothing is there on the surface. It's been there on and off on a couple random ensemble runs.

Snow weenies will ignore the “long shot” part and then cliff jump when it disappears.

Even though it's just rain this time, being able to get a region-wide soaker may not be a bad sign going forward...

I'm from St. Louis..............  I want to measure it in my gauge.  A "soaker" must be more than an inch.  A quarter inch only lays the dust for about 36 hrs..
