Euro ensemble mean precip panels definitely show some members are showing some kind of coastal or overunning saturday/sunday. Moisture from the gulf coast up the apps and ec with precip max off the ma coast. It's light verbatim but it's a mean of 50 members so hardly surprising at long leads. Let's will this one to happen.

 

For those who have wxbell. Check out this link.

50 shades of gray? I think we got that covered

You are slipping too. Control run shows 2 accum snow events through the run. Including 61 redux (just with 1/3rd as much snow). You know it's coming deep down inside. WDI index for a big event is at a high not reached since dinosaurs walked the earth.

Euro ens improve through the end of the run. Ridging re-establishing further west and ok trough axis here. Stupid north atl ridging is a statue but what can you do. Look like the beginnings of a -epo reload. We may have more fun this month than we think. DC can get 3 1" events and another 1.9" event and approach seasonal climo before Feb.

a really nice run. Like how the red shade starts to build back up into Alaska again towards the end of the run. The NAO is hopeless though....lol

It's a clue as to what direction we may go towards the end of the month. -epo rebuild would be fine in my book and would make sense given the last  weeks or so. I have no hope for the nao this month. I'm sure we'll warm up for a spell after mlk day. At the very least we seem to be avoiding long duration snow cancels.

How's the ole pattern looking? Any megalicious blocking, polar vortexices, superduper clippers, or end of the world Greek mythologically named blizzards showing up?

For us guys living near dc the pattern isn't so good. The euro ensembles in the longer range have a positive NAO look with lower than normal heights over Greenland and higher than normal near 50 50.    We have to hope the heights build enough across AK to really give us a cold shot as most shortwave that dig will result in some type of low going to our north...sort of like the event on the 15th.   It and similar systems are likely to have boundary layer/surface temp problems even if they pop a new low off the east coast.  We just don' have the greenland Baffin bay block that we need.   Instead we're in the old thread the needle.   The one semi bit of good news is the Euro ens mean is showing hints of a southern stream.  If that happens, it would be a good thing.

Where did everything go? Yesterday we were talking about MLK chances and late next week. Did the models pull a Lucy?

Some of the ensembles still have storms next week but the number has decreased and the operational models don't show much.  That could still change but the new foundland/nova scotia above normal heights make it a real struggle.

Thats the nature of this hobby. Bipolar as hell. After the 12z runs, the mood will probably be manic again. Even if the afternoon runs all suck, happy hour coincides with playoff football so moods will be elevated either way.

Gfs op has come complete circle from torchy torch back to cool on the east with periods of amplification. Looks like a version of the euro ensemble runs.

The longer we stay in this type of pattern the better chances of a sneak attack. Epo reload seems likely at thus point but we won't get pv'd because Canada warms. That's really no big deal though. Modest aob can snow in Jan.

I'm interested in the 12z ens suites. It's far from perfect for dc snow but ops can present themselves at medium/short leads with fast flow.
