you know how you know it's bad?

When you're extrapolating out the GEFS at day 15 to bring the cold east lol.

Well what I mean is that it already brought a trough in the east, but not the cold. However, it's better than the zonal flow we may haver a few days prior. It's not great at all, but maybe it's one of those things where you just gotta work with the hand that is dealt.

but what does that have to do with winter weather in the northeast?

Drought can and does affect weather patterns. I do not think it is a coincidence that much of the US has been in a significant drought at the same time so many areas of the country have have had if not their warmest year on record then one of their warmest years on record.......I think we can both agree that to date it has been a warmer than normal winter in New England.

My concern is that the rest of this winter breaks warm and dry.....

But the drought in the midwest has nothing to do with how warm or cold it is in the northeast.

Yeah, thanks to the torch Spring through early Autumn, but it has nothing to do with us during the cold season. The sun's rays simply are not strong enough to create massive Plains ridging like it can in the summer...and furnace the country. Look to the EPO as to why it's been mild.

the trough looks interesting but the airmass looks awful

Prob not very good for the south coast or SE areas...but its cold enough for frozen in a lot of areas as long as the storm isn't cutting west which I don't think it would if it ended up forming something.

The airmass wasn't very good for 12/27 either, but it produced a lot of snow outside of the coastal regions.
