40/70 Benchmark

Its also into the holiday break period now, too....so folks may not be up at 6am.

Was probably Tbliz lol

Weekends I always am, but only post if it's very interesting.

It takes a special set of circumstances for me to be up for the EURO on weeknights these days, at 45 with 4 little ones.....

I'd hit it-

I haven't put much effort into whether or not we trend colder in the shorter term (don't really care), but expect this Pacific trough regime to last into mid January before the flip, which is consistent with his timeframe. It's important to keep in mind that the Pacific trough regime doesn't have to mean an all out torch, which some may be conditioned to believe. BAM is right about the PV being on our side of the hemisphere, so that would help to mitigate that.

Great video by BAM....only point I am at odds with him is the PNA for January, but that is probably a bigger deal for the mid Atlantic than my area.

Agree on the Jan 15-Feb 1 timeframe.

925 looks cold enough for a lot of the region, so if there's decent growth and some consistency with halfway decent rates, it should be okay.

I think the +TNH will run a bit into Feb before we get very mild and await the stratosphere.

Sure...reasonable.

That guidance shows it essentially neutralizing by January 5th...pop a +TNH mid-month....done.

Yes, there is.

This area has a tendency to get 7/11 split as it pertains to latitude.

My area will get it...no doubt.
