Strongly agree here...It has been weak to non-existent for most of the winter thus far...I was hoping that it would take off and head deep into 6 and 7 like one of the statistical models had it doing a few days ago...but...no such luck...gotta love these moderate LA NINAs

I think the MJO is worthwhile to use in the absence of other strong signals. With a ripping -NAO and -AO... I'm not really going to look too much at the IO/W Pac for forcing when for us the big driver is just north or northeast of us.

Also as is typical of a strong Nina we're dealing with a low amplitude MJO wave so forcing should be less than ripping a monster MJO.

I like how "extrapolating the NAM" has become so frowned upon. It's like communism now.

Will's last post has to have a disclaimer so that he's not black listed.

There can still be constructive discussion about the NAM's prog without weenieing out over IMBY results.

Absolutely, but I don't want people living and dying by the 84 hour NAM. Some may not realize how unstable it can be.

Im going to say it even though nobody wants to hear it....its looks pretty badt at 84h....almost exactly like the 12z Euro at 96h except the PV is worse off north of NE...at 96h it was actually rotating down W and SW and trying to phase in...not happening on the NAM. This would almost certainly result in a wide right solution.....BUT....

It is the NAM at 84h...so thankfully, it doesn't really matter.

The classic 84 HR NAM coup was 84 hours ahead of the 1/22/05 blizzard. GFS till the last minute was doody and even Euro began to waffle. I remember dropping my wife and daughter off at PVD...they were heading to ORD. I stayed home ...was not going to miss it...was feeling the storm. I load up 12Z NAM and it's a solid hit for us.

^^this^^

we can inject HGH into the southern stream...it's not going to make a world of difference if we have that giant gyre spinning near us.

Wasn't that the ETA though?

Yeah if I remember correctly the GFS had an egregiously OTS solution as close as 48-60 hours out.

I dunno Will. Looping suggests that it may be a later and slower solution but that PV is finally on the move. As you say...doesn't matter given the model and time frame.
