    What's interesting to me is that, like the CANSIPS, it's been correcting east with the El Nino, but it doesn't really make much of a difference in the forecast output. This is consistent with what I have been saying about how orientation isn't going to be a huge deal this season given the magnitude of the event at hand. While I think the JAMSTEC and CANSIPS are overdone, you don't need to convince me that forecasting a season largely devoid of winter weather on the east coast is utter folly. It's certainly not going to be wall-to-wall cold and snow...but I think we are essentially trading a great deal of MC influence for a canonical east-based first half, and quite frankly, that is a trade I want mother nature to render final approval of, yesterday.

    Yea, ignoring consensus trends is silly.....precision verification isn't the point.
  3. 40/70 Benchmark
    That is impressive....the magnitude of warmth under ridges is always underdone in these modern times, so no biggie....did about as well as can be expected.

    It's on the Ambient Network...not sure how to link it.

    I don't think December will be representative of the balance of the season.

    Yea, parts of SE MA were above normal in 2016.

    1.14" event total....I'll take it. I was afraid it would have been even less.

    Who doesn't?

    So far, really just the vp amomalies, which I already mentioned...but there is already really a wealth of quality data.

    Hopefully that station measures the moisture that falls better than it does the moisture in the air.

    I was so frustrated because I called that blizzard down to within just a few days during the fall, but expected it to get up here....just brutal.

    What a breath of fresh air that is after the last 11 years.

    43.3 this AM IMBY this AM....gorgeous.

    @BlizzardWx's site.

    True ratter here....wow, just about futility around Chris out in Greenfield.

    Yea, it means no arctic source, but the airmass can work in January-Feb.

    Mid January 1983 I had 20.2" followed by a frigid week, including a day with a high of 10 and low of -5...then in February, I had a 17" and 20.3" event in the same week, for a peak depth of 26". I would sign up for that in a heart beat and think it's totally feasible this season in short bursts.

    Who is doing that? Cite the name specifically?? All I see are expectations for a warm season with a heightened risk of a big snow event or two. Obviously the season could easily fail to produce like 1998, but it's not very compelling to discuss that in depth on a weather forum. The upside if we get lucky here in SNE is near normal snowfall and above normal snowfall in the mid atl.

    It's a DJF mean. Worked for Feb 1983, but I agree it's precarious for the coast. Here is Feb....I think we have seasonable cold here with that ridging out west.
