The MJO is passing through Phase 7 into 8 right around the time that the storm is entering the plains.

Phase 7 can allow the SE Ridge to kick up just enough for a more westerly track. A couple of days

later into 8 the SE Ridge wouldn't be a factor. Talk about a solution right on the razors edge. Hopefully

later runs can have more west blocking to suppress the SE Ridge. Would not like to lose a great snowstorm

threat with all the blocking by just a day or two of 500 mb difference.

And greater than 4 inches never happened In the first week of November. Oh and nothing more than an inch and a half or so had ever fallen in October for the entire month. Tell that to oct 2011 and nov 2012

we did see a half inch in October 1952 and 2" in early November 1953...It wasn't at this yea'rs level but it's happened before around the area...Early October 1987 had a big wet snow event in upstate NY and snow and ice on November 11th...A major storm for the DC area...

Not that they are worth much but the 12z Canadian Ensembles are a solid hit with the over running event. Way north of the 12z Euro OP. The main event heads towards the lakes and then eastward.

Not suprised given that the GGEM operational was a big hit as well, north of even the GFS.

secondary would work if it stalls out because of the block and draws in the colder air which is nearby and another norlun develops but who wants to be in the bullseye 8 days out - things will change ..............same thing happened with the EURO last storm the first runs showing the storm had a bomb on the coast similar to this coming event

This is the strongest 7 day blocking signal of the season so far with +400 meter anomalies in

the ensemble mean. We just need a little more help in the PNA department to flatten out the

SE Ridge a bit more.
