Yeah. With the EURO run, I think there's definitely a trend to pump the ridge out west and amplify the Atlantic High, cutting off for a bit. The NAM is definitely wrapping up that southeast vorticity too fast. I missed that when I first looked at the run.

Yeah. Once I saw it had the same solution as the icon, there was really no choice but to throw it out.

Yeah. I don't think the NAM/EURO super friend compromise is too far off if the ridge out west keeps building. A minor difference in amplitude of the ridge seems to deepen the trough, as well as slows things down just enough to blow up and amplify the Atlantic ridge to it's NE. This seems to enable the trough to go negative.

Ditto in regards to the member's comments above. This is trending towards a record low ice minimum.
