Does a wimpy 1016 low push the 1040 high off to the east right away?

This is the issue I have, in addition to the h5 set up not really fully supporting a low pushing that far n/w into the GL region. The high holds much stronger on the other modeling. This set up is not frequented by the models, so its anyones game at this point. Pretty good agreement on high placement so it should be there down the road, but I don't see this 1016mb low doing what it does.

It may be a blessing in disguise if this storm ends up being a strong cutter, You can see the EURO at Day 7 the pattern looks REALLY good to me. -AO forming and a nice shortwave in the southwest. 

I remember you doing this for months last winter. Every lame storm was actually a good thing since it supposedly would lead to an awesome pattern "down the road." We are still waiting.

What I really think might be showing up is what we sometimes see after a big cutter. The low is not that strong either way, but after cutters we get a quasi transient PNA ridge that brings in a temporary shot at a system, however in a faster flow that type of pattern is not the one you want. 

 

In this area, the best bet is to hope for this storm, and not another one down the road. The pattern will warm temporarily for mid month, at least in my opinion, which corresponds with what others are saying. I want to remind those that aren't the most educated in this that you shouldn't dismiss the solutions of the models because of what the Euro is doing.

Haha, I'm a glass half full type of person, its hope that gets me through the winter to soothe my sickness.

Its one EURO run still really far out, EURO tends to over due strength of lows coming out of the Southwest, we'll see what the ensembles show.

 

nobody is on the ledge...it is just good to see the range of possibilties

Northeast resident here. I feel all your pain. I see a lot if us latching onto this really soon if it gets a little closer. I don't want a cutter. I think we are more in a rinse and repeat pattern if we get that cutter.

Cutter goes through, we cool off, then another cutter rolls through

Highzenberg's Uncertainty Principle: the less precisely the track of the next storm is known, the more precisely the storm after it can be forecast...  Or something like that...   :lmao:

 

No no you have it wrong, in my messed up brain I create a win-win scenario. 

 

Win #1 we get a nice little ice/snow storm Dec 9

Win #2, low heads into the Lakes, is much stronger, helps create some blocking.

Looks like another small mixing event at 204 on the Euro.  Warms up quick though (again).

It is important to see the range of possibilities.   All the models have a low going north of us.  I think the farther north and strong it is, the more likely we see a euro solution in terms of QPF.  A low more towards the GFS and GGEM track will be heavier but I don't see it being as wet as the GFS which too me looks wet.  Heck the euro would be good for you dec call as we'd have a day or two with high mins to add to the torch coming up.  If I had to guess, I'd lean towards a euro solution based on the position of the ridge in the west being so far offshore but for any CWG discussion, I probably won't yet jump onto any model forecast this early.
