Hopefully that trend continues because there is potential there.

Nice to see more ridging build out west in time. Maybe we can get one of these shortwaves to dig and deliver.

That doesn't mean there's no drought or low reservoirs

Seeing several clipper type systems on guidance so although big snowstorms are off the table, light to moderate events seem possible even down to Mid-Atlantic

Bingo. Unless you live in C/NNE or near lakes you're gonna get skunked. Coastal track is dead and gone...until spring of course

Same ole Great lakes tracks. It's cold/dry to warm/wet and back to cold dry. Horrible pattern for snow here. Maybe in January when storm track drops south we'll get something but this is a crappy pattern. Time to move to the lakes, tons of lake effect snows

Do you think this pattern is permanent because it looks like it.

This has been the reality for the past decade. Bluewave constantly points this out. It's the same kind of storm track too. The only ones that really benefit are anyone around the lakes and C/NNE. Maybe the pattern will flip again one day but we need to see a complete change in the forcing out in the Pacific.

I think people need to let go of the analogs of the past. We're in a completely different climate now.

Colder airmass to start so yes I agree though similar setup to Tuesday with high escaping. Will depend on storm track Unfortunately think majority of snows occurs NW of our region. SNE and north will do really well. Borderline for NYC

Agreed

Probably some white rain at the onset, maybe even a little grass accumulation at best but will all turn to rain with temps near 40F.

It's probably the result of the split forcing in the Pacific. EPS/GEPS with the MJO 8 like pattern while GEFS loops around.

GEFS still looks like trash LR

GEFS still the outlier with trough out west leading to much warmer conditions east & ridging. Bet snowman loves that
