Extended GEFS and EPS both show the craptastic PAC we knew was right around the corner. But...that look has a notable difference from last year or just a few weeks ago, imo. Without the monster, stable NPAC ridge this could leave the door open for a PNA ridge to pop ever now and again. With the smoothed LR anoms, this could be just what the models are showing. Add in a cooperative ATL.....possible help from the strat and I am cautiously optimistic.
