I know I agree. It only gets a nod for being the first to show it early in the week before it completely lost it. It's gone northwest now 7 of 8 runs besides the 18z blip yesterday.
Big changes on 12z GFS CMC next week, probably wrong, the vortex pushes into Montana instead of Minnesota and trough axis is further west, doesn't get as cold as run the risk verbatim of a cutter.
What a pattern showing up! Looking at teles this morning, after the -NAO and -AO tank early next week they quickly shoot towards positive as we get a PNA spike to coincide late next week, very interesting.
