  1. First half basically went exactly as you’d want for a ravens upset outside of something like a pick 6. Still skeptical they can keep it up for another 30mins though.
  2. Wasn’t much in GRo’s magic bag there with first and goal from the 4.
  3. Ravens D is gonna be gassed by halftime
  4. Could be. The maps at 6hr resolution aren’t great. It’ll be different at 0z anyway. Hopefully we get something to work out in that Jan 21-31 window.
  5. That’s instantaneous precip type. Snow accum map shows 1-3” above fall line.
  6. It’s got some digital blue for those above the fall line for the 23rd.
  7. Subbing in a really bad QB for a bad QB. They’ll never see it coming!
  8. Everyone please. This conversation has been beat to death. Start a separate thread if you want to keep talking about this.
  9. I’ve been promised a moderate modoki Nino and there’s no takebacks
  10. Hopefully the pattern stays active as the PV tries to press southward into Hudson Bay and the 50-50 region. Of course as we know, more SE ridge will keep the Gulf open, and better chance of a wetter pattern without a deeper eastern trough.
  11. I think you nailed it recently when you said we’ve seen the character of this winter. It ain’t good. But we could still blunder into something other than a total dead ratter. Cold air nearby and an active pattern hopefully gives us chances, even if the dominant p-type is rain. Need timing and a bit of luck.
  12. For illustrative purposes…when you have cold air masses available to tap, you can get good outcomes.
  13. Actually…I think the ensembles have done very well with the longwave pattern past D8 this year. This storm and the offshore development was suggested in general form out to like D14. Next pattern change, assuming it happens will also be like a D14-15 length call.
  14. For 1 run at least, definitely a solid step toward the EPS/GEPS look, which is way more favorable for us.
  15. EPS not folding. Maybe a suggestion of some members being more GEFS-like around D10 with troughing over the SW and northern Mexico? But lots of ridging along the west coast generally.
  16. That wave around the 21-22nd seems like it’s the first with any sort of prayer for some frozen precipitation. The huge differences between the GEFS and GEPS (and hopefully still the EPS) today are not that far off…like D7-8 there are major differences in the way they handle the western ridge and CONUS trough.
  17. Alright. Enough snow climo and climate change for now please. Digital blue on the gfs, check it out!
  18. My 2C is that even with trends being what they are, we will still get snow here, still have occasional big storms, and still have nice winters here for many many years to come. Will they be as frequent as I’d like or as before? Doubtful. But I don’t expect them to go extinct. And so I’ll keep watching and waiting.
  19. Don’t know. A lot of un-Niña like behavior so far for sure. Some folks seem convinced we we get the canonical February Niña look, which is not a good one for us. Others think the weakening Niña will keep things unusual. Throw in some signs of the strat PV getting disrupted and will be interesting. Hopefully we can claw out of a position where this winter is one of those we don’t speak about in polite company.
