Do you mean wrt posting a 300+ hr op surface map or the relentlessness of the shred factory? I assumed we could lock in that map

P10/P22 blend please and I'm good for the month of January.

@losetoa6 said in the main thread there are some monster hits on the 6z GEFS. Haven't seen the individual panels but the H5 means is gaining legs.

Nevermind, spoke too soon

No way this misses verbatim. Digital MECS incoming.

Day 10? Hmmm, you don't say.

Fringed

So that energy just completely disintegrates and meanwhile the clipper disturbance gets sucked into the block vortex. Ok, sure that will play out like that.

50/50 hit an absolute wall at 210 with nowhere to go. Just sits and spins. That block is doing its dirty work for sure.

Curious to see what the Alberta Clipper disturbance at 210 decides to do.

Hey, all I did was trace the outline of the greatest negative temp anomalies. I have no idea wth you ppl are talking about.

If it is more elongated and doesn't penetrate as far South, we could get screwed. But who knows. Eta: what I'm saying is, if the block pulls out prematurely then all bets are off

Weeklies after week 2 have been horrendous this year. Mostly the opposite has verified honestly.

The trajectory isn't straight out of the N Pole rather it comes across the Northern tier from the PAC NW....odd. I just hope we don't get shafted.

Im not PSU but....Trof digs in the west, flat SER thanks to -NAO raging keeping it at bay. Waves eject out of SW and head NE and overrun the cold air locked in via confluence under the 50/50. Think thump.

If we end up just N of that gradient it could be quite the fun! So maybe we nix the clipper pattern altogether and head straight into SWFE?

Wait. He predicted what the model would predict with help from his "predictor"? I think I've heard it all. So is this the new forecasting... we predict what we think the models will show? Count me in!

SWF pattern incoming. Overrunning central.

The stj is constipated and every wave that actually comes thru the Southern Rockies hits a wall in E TX and stops moving East.

The pattern with the cold air establishing in our source region is just starting in 3 days. Im cautiously optimistic. If we fail, so be it. If we score then I make naked snow angels.

Day 10?

Maybe Apocalypse Now

This is what his "predictor" is showing? Is that akin to spinning the roulette wheel?

Every time thus far that the PAC has tried to dig the trof into the SW or off the SW coast, the Nina laughed in its face and said nope, move along and stay N. With the map I posted, the other scenario we could score in is in fact digging the trof in those areas, splitting the flow, and having sw's eject out of the Southwest and provide overunning. I alluded to this last week stating the clipper look and the SWFE (gradient) setups are two possible wintry patterns I could see this heading. Many have stated gradient patterns seem rare anymore and with the Nina, that statement could certainly continue to have merit. But that's my take on how things may evolve over the next 3 weeks.
