I’m actually shocked and appalled by the lack of coverage of this, soon to be, humanitarian crisis. This was the big one, for Mexico.
You hear nothing on the big news stations except the Maine and Israel situations. Mind you, those are big news stories in and of themselves. But this is a huge natural disaster just south of us and there's NO coverage at all. The images and videos coming out are just insane

We received our first snow of the season this evening out here in SE Wyoming. About 2" or so in the grass, very pretty and already more than I saw the entirety of last winter in SE PA. Rooting for a blockbuster winter for y'all back east, I'll be back in PA for 3 weeks in Dec-Jan and hoping for some snow during that time!

Ended up with about 1.5-2" on UW campus, most if not all of that coming this evening with the wrap around trowel.

Some of us outside the mountains may see our first snow of the year late week.
Yeah, Cheyenne is sounding confident in snow levels dropping fairly low up here for Thursday. The Snowies should see 10+" though. Laramie should see some accumulation

GEFS should follow suit with the op run, to no surprise. Through hr48 already slower and the trough is lifting out/less interaction with Lee

That was a huge shift SW on the GFS, will be super interesting to see the ensemble members

I wouldn't even want to get hit by whatever Lee is right now. Looks like crap

There are some big time western members on the 0z GEFS. Legit one tries to skirt North Carolina. Can't call anything a trend yet with regards to MSLP position really, but you can sure see the ridge over far eastern Canada (around Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, etc) trending stronger on the GEFS each subsequent run. Will be interested to see the spaghetti tracks for the ensembles
Also to note, some of the more southwest ensemble members are there because of timing differences. There's a few members that get Lee essentially "stuck" in the northern Bahamas until the ridge moves out and it goes OTS. So a more W or SW member doesn't necessarily equate to a NE hit.

Yup. Just look at the GFS trend the last two days. Speaking broadly, if the deterministic Euro is a western outlier and GFS eastern outlier, this is a pretty substantial Atlantic Canada threat at range.
However, if you’re looking at the synoptics, that ridge is continuing to trend stronger across guidance in the longer range and the trough while still all over the place is looking less like a full blown kicker.
I don’t really care about the imby stuff yet, but I think it’s also becoming clearer that while a turn 70W or later would obviously increase the NE threat, it’s not necessary for an impact, if the current ridge/trough trend continues. It might not, and we should be wary of the last minute east ticks, but for now this is what we got.
The biggest takeaway from that GFS run for me wasn't the impact location, per say. But rather we didn't see that bend/recurve OTS once past Hatteras latitude. Instead, it trucks on due north into eastern New England, similar to the Euro which moved straight north. So as you alluded to, that ridge and trough duo as currently modeled squeezes this thing due north. If you really want a strong New England impact, you'd want this trough to capture Lee, even if it's slightly, to pull it *just* a bit on a NW heading. But you take what you can get. I think y'all all know what's at stake here, and what's the likely outcome. I don't even live on the east coast anymore, but this is still an intriguing situation to follow and I'll be watching along

Just saw that since a month ago October 18th, KRDG has only seen 0.21" of precip and since November 1st, 0.01" which just happened last night before midnight. That number will go up as I'm sure more fell after midnight. But I was unaware of the extremely dry late fall SE PA has seen. Similarly, we haven't seen any measurable precip since October 28th, but then again that's to be expected out here.
I haven't been following along with winter forecasts and what not, been too busy with grad school. But I'd imagine things are going to be much much different this winter compared to last. A more busy STJ is hopefully in the cards with El Nino in place. The question is... how much has the atmosphere responded to this huge SST change and how much lingering Nina effects are there?
