So what do the height patterns indicate?

 

This isn't a furnace exactly, but I wouldn't call this a cold pattern with zonal Pacific flow into Canada. A -NAO will not help with this until you deposit a round of cold into Canada first. If you took this pattern later in the season when Canada is cold in general it might work...but not this early. Euro ensembles are a bit warmer.

that's a pretty serious cold shot on some of the op runs next week....depending on how quickly moisture returns, could/would yield first widespread frozen for a large chunk of new england i'd think.

 

If the Euro is right and the core of the cold stays just north I think we have some shot at overrunning snows. If the GFS is right about the core of the cold really diving south I think it's suppression depression until the cold rots slowly overhead and the high oozes east.

GFS tries to round the bend with a disturbance, but I think it's also too far south with the cold shot. You definitely could envision something wintry perhaps as a low tries to approach and push a WF through.

Obviously we're talking like 7-8 days out, but that could threaten some records on the Euro/GFS if we verified something close to that. Euro has highs in the 20s in the interior for at least one of those days. As a reference, ORH has only seen 3 days through 11/15 that have had high temps in the 20s. 11/11/87 (28F), 11/14/86 (29F), and 11/14/97 (28F).

I'm talking about the 25th and beyond for a meaningful change

Yes, you keep saying that...and its definitely possible. But that is 3 weeks out...ensembles go out to 15 days on the Euro and 16 days on the GFS. They certainly aren't pointing to a change back to cold in the long range...beyond that? Who knows...its too early to really have any idea. The stratosphere isn't showing much and the uncertainty regarding the MJO doesn't help us either .

You are missing the point. You need to reload Canada for anything meaningful and the prog is on 11/20. That subtle troughing might be enough for normal temps, but Canada isn't jsut going to recharge on a dime, it will take time. Perhaps you are right and it turns abruptly colder after the 25th, but you are going to need help. I still think if anything like that happens....it won't be until December. JMHO.

Anybody have a reason why December 1985 changed so abruptly from November?

Nothing really shows up on stratospheric temps or the MJO...Nov '85 had a strong MJO pulse go through phases 3-6..but those aren't overly hostile that early in the season. It looks like we had a big time -EPO in November but we had a lot of troughs digging for oil out west which kept the east warm. We obviously went to a really positive PNA in December.

yeah the ec has an 18z temp at ORH next thursday of 30F. LOL

 

it actually keeps all of SNE in the 30s on both wed/thur...even NYC is sub 40F on wed.

Yeah nice PNA and NAO flip, but was curious as to what may be the catalyst to flip it other than chalking it up to weather being weather. MJO went into the COD towards the end of the month. Nothing stratosphere or QBO related. Just maybe natural progression I guess.

The airmass that is progged to drain in here next week is currently over the frozen Arctic ocean north of AK right now...you can follow its progression on guidance straight down east of AK through the Yukon/NW Territories then SE through Canadian praries, N of the lakes and right down through Ontario/Quebec...its about as an ideal of a trajectory as you can get for cold air in minimizing it's modification.

And it fits perfectly with the CDC's timing on a -EPO pulse that takes place over the next 5 days.  The index spikes to ~ -2SD and within a day and half we have that plume of cold pressing SSE.  Classic!   It's like what we were talking about the other day ... one cannot assume a -PNA/+NAO is a bad pattern for cold weather enthusiasts, without first looking at some qualifying details..

Shiver me timbers on the GFS next week.

 

 

It actually has a pretty good windex event accompanying the arctic front. Nice PVA...though the GFS has been the furthest south with this...I'd be a little skeptical of how far south it shows all the features.

 

That would be frigid though next Tuesday.

And then it's cooking something up day 7.
