Lots of meh coming up.

At least there is cold air building though. It's just a question of can we get this pattern to break down...we need some sort of mechanism to bring that cold air down.

One issue now and for pretty much the rest of the month is the westerlies are so freaking strong and the pattern is so zonal any cold or colder air that tries to dig into the US is short lasting, we get these impulses or troughs that try to develop, however, within a day or two everything is back to being zonal. The SE ridge is really fighting things.

I don't know a great deal about this and I could be wrong here but right now it looks as if we will see a more westerly based La Nina winter...the colder water and anomalies are set up closer to the central and east/central Pacific while off the Central/South American coast there is still some solidly +SSTA's..although some cooling has really tried to occur here. Anyways, with such warmer SSTA's in that region right now wouldn't this further promote a SE ridge...especially with how dry it has been across the south and southeast the past 60-90 days. I'm still trying to get a better understanding of all this.

It doesn't look necessarily west based to me, but yes if we did have warm waters in the eastern regions it may help promote a se ridge.

I think these are the same statements. :P

looks like truly pitiful weather for anyone with a skiing desire or a one way infatuation with cold and snow. and truly beautiful weather for people on the cp who don't want to "waste a cool pattern" or those who enjoy november warmth.

it's just disturbing how the 10-12 c 850 show up regularly every 5-6 days and what a killer this is for early season snow makers snow pack building conditions.

For a large area, seasonal temps in late November can support snow. Not saying that's going to happen mind you.

it sure doesn't look like it. unless maybe your in an upslope region of VT you prolly have the best chance in this pattern ...i dunno. ski resorts accross new england are collectively throwing up in unison. no way to postively spin this for resorts.

on a side note. i am in orlando right now for my sis's wedding which is a blast....and thankfully temps were 43 this am right outside of orlando. :)

I honestly and truly don't know what you are seeing

I just don't see a "wintry" pattern imo. I'm not the only one either. It just seems like transient stuff. Will there be periods of cool wx? Yes. Is it an established wintery patter?? IMO, absolutely not. I'm speaking about the next two weeks.
