ok, so the progression on every single ensemble is going to be wrong? is that what you're saying? also, there's a trough in the east for two weeks on the extended GEFS and three weeks on the Weeklies. that is what the extended products are showing. it's not transient
-
the MJO is quite weak... seems like other intraseasonal factors are going to have more of an impact. also, I wouldn't consider a mean trough in the east for 2-3 weeks transient. extended guidance could easily be overdoing the impact of ENSO. it did the same thing last year
-
that screenshot of the pattern is misleading. a static image won't paint an accurate picture of what's actually occurring
-
that trough is transient, though. it's normal for there to be a transient trough in the west when the EPO drops... the pattern is in the process of transitioning there

I think the overall pattern here is a lot safer since the Pacific looks locked into moving favorably... last year was pretty much fully dependent on the Atlantic, and the Atlantic itself was contingent on a cutter leading to massive wave breaking. very precarious
-
also, that look is 2-3 weeks out, not 5-6 weeks out like last year. it's continuing the progression on the ensembles, so it's not like it's showing that for no reason
-
i mean, the -EPO developing during the first week of Jan is a near certainty, we are going to have that feature barring a complete mishandling of the Pacific. the potential -NAO just ups the ante, and there is increasing confidence that one is going to form. it's showing up on all ensembles around day 10 I want to wait another 5-7 days to see if it sticks around, but it's promising. I'm not going to let last year's debacle influence my thinking all that much

considering the blocking doesn’t rely on a cutter and the Pacific seems a lot more favorable, this seems a bit more solid i’d like to give this another week though
-
lol this is ridiculous too. 50/50 signal at 2-3 weeks out is kinda wild. this is the kind of stuff we were looking for last year
-
no, it's actually forming at the end of Dec. this is also a block. it just advects northward and retrogrades. kind of a weird evolution but still a valid one note the LP dipole in the Atlantic. it's jamming stuff up downstream, so it's not one of those bootleg positive anomalies that does nothing to slow the flow down
