more boring -2.6 departure ever run?

lol

Kind of..lol. But, it's nice to have a more normal November.

I thought 11/7-11/8 was pretty memorable but yeah this month has been very consistent. I know some hacks in the private weather business (1 in particular from the UK) that tried to play the long range "rollercoaster" card for November thinking it would be a safe bet for a late autumn month. Well, I've never seen such a constant sensible weather regime! lol

You were thinking snow and ice to rain, not a 60 degree sou'easter

Talking about New England as a whole, yes, I think NNE could do that. I still think the SNE interior and maybe you could see a mix at the onset or even a brief snow. We are 7 days out so you can't get specific other than mention possibilties.

Well right that was a good storm, although nothing memorable here locally. I was coming from the point of us not seeing any crazy cold outbreaks that would normally cause these departures. It's been steady as she goes below normal over the last 10-12 days.

This storm that some of y'all are worried about cutting inland is quite important for moving the -NAO block west and setting up the Dec 5-10 time frame. I say let the bastard cut inland, take your mix (or rain for me) if you're lucky and hope for the best down the road.

I'm rooting for that thing to be strong and blowtorch Greenland...lol. Sorry arctic ice mongerers.

Funny how you say this. It always seems like we have some sort of inland runner/cutter that precedes some sort of coastal system in the time period thereafter.

If it's going to cut, let it cut all the way. I don't want it going over my head...have it go over Michigan...

Nick id take the 06z GFS cut scenario any day. Start off as a brief period of snow followed by a mix then a changeover to rain for a while then once the low finally slips to our east the winds switch to north and we get good snows with some lake enhancement off Ontario ftw. Thats better IMO than it going over Michigan and us torching with rain.

The sratosphere still looks like it wants to help out down the road. These things called EP fluxes are trying to point towards the poles..although still not favorable yet. This means that the overall mid and upper tropospheric pattern might be trying to improve in such a way that any vertical propagating waves wll be allowed to move poleward and upwards into the lower stratosphere. There is still work to do so maybe it's a good idea to wait.

yeah the 06z gfs wasn't bad..if the low cuts over michigan then you have WSW les on the backside. That's what I was getting at.

I thought Roundy's constructed analog method captured this pretty well and what may transpire:

Yes it gets ugly towards Christmas/New Years but mid-December looks good for New England.

Oh I was talking about around Dec. 1st on the op and ensembles. Lots of troughiness just off the west coast.

Where is Joes torch Wed- Friday? Lol

mid 50s and sunny, thats all I ever said and thats all it will be.......instead of highs in the low 40s and lows in the low 20s as you predicted. Where is the storm today? How about the whitening of the ground squalls tomorrow, and where is the 4-8 inches of snow next week for all of ne even to the coast.....?

You really need to stop listening to BUSTardi, he is abysmal man.

Yes, true, there are many examples. The most famous example is January-February 1978.

If you get a bonus snow or mix with this first one, then great for you. For late November, that's not a bad deal.

I don't think anyone in Sne sees mid 50's except maybe Sw Ct Friday. Lots of low cloud issues the next 2 mornings. Squalls still look on target tomorrow/ tomorrow night for many

Right, but I was implying that this idea of a poor Pacific for a while was a possibility based on the Pacific stuff and that it will still not ruin chances Dec 5-20. Basically I'm saying not to worry. :)

It looks like it will get gradient-like for a while across where else....here. I could see it going both ways for a time. It does look like we'll try to pop a little ridge in western Canada so maybe just beyond and the end of week 1, we get colder again. That could be the P1-2 kicking in then.

I'm becoming increasingly confident that at some point in mid to late January, a very cold and snowy pattern will setup as the MJO and stratosphere combine to bring those conditions. As always, nailing down the timing is the toughest part, especially with these building up wave 1 setups for a top-down. Overall, this winter could end up playing out like a typical El Niño if you think of things on this level.
