Wut? Long range modeling showing pattern changes to a wintrier pattern have fallen flat every time they've shown up. It's the winter of modeling showing a pattern change perpetually in the 10-14 day range.
Given antecedent airmass and tenor of the season over the last 6 weeks, this has felt like a C/NNE threat to me. This is not to say western and higher terrain of SNE can’t score some love but nothing noteworthy to me.
