Better, but not quite there. If that Baja low can stay a little stronger and ridging can get a little better. Big if's though.

 

Yeah, it was closer, but that only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades...  It was a better look, for sure, though.  Definitely better than the dumpster fire 12z and 18z runs.  Maybe now we're trend better until the end... but that's wishful thinking.

 

Can't wait for this thing to phase into a bomb and run up the Apps, then destroy New England, though. :)

The 00z JMA looks to be pumping the ridge more.  You see that, Pack?  It's hard to tell if it would be meaningful without better maps, though.  I think it only goes out to 72 hours at 00z.  I probably shouldn't be looking at the JMA, anyways.

UK has a SLP off the benchmark. Probably Euro'ish.

I don't have the JMA yet.

The Euro sucks, for those inquiring minds who want the bad news. (D5 "storm")

 

It does pound Boston, though.  Probably around a foot.

 

It did trend stronger with the coastal, but I just see no way that's going to be cold enough for us at this point.

 

LOL, I admit, when I saw the GFS giving places to our SE and a nice snowstorm I thought there was a chance.  And this thing is trending stronger/deeper but only does that as it approaches Boston.  Even they have to be getting sick of snow.  This winter is about riding the hot hand, Boston get's all the snow and our hot hand is the non-measurable snow streak.

12z gfs is a miss.  What's hurting us right now is the ridge out west not pumping up like it was on earlier runs.

 

 

Fixed that for ya!

 

LOL...yeah if you look at the GFS at 54 you think just maybe but it goes to crap quickly after this frame.  There is really only one thing missing, a better ridge in the west would go a long way, but all models are in agreement of it flattening.

 

Edit:  I think it would be better if the PV over the lakes would just swing east and allow the energy coming down over CO/KS, what we were seeing a couple of days ago.

That same horse that was lying there dead on December 1st, 2014 is the same horse lying there dead today and will still be lying there dead mid March. I'll save all the analogies, editorial comments for the biggest seasonal forecast in the history of mankind till March when JB is sneaking in grades of C- etc. And cohen, what's he plan on doing in the future?

There is some hope for better weather though...this should bring a smile to everyone's face.  It will be cold Thursday/Friday and start moderating Sat and we are nice Sunday for a period...

Yup. Ridiculously Resilient Ridge (RRR) in the West should shift eastward and the Pacific jet should accelerate/extend, allowing for a milder stretch (and wetter for the West Coast!) for most of the U.S. Thereafter, the Pacific jet should retract, allowing heights to rise across Alaska/Western North America and returning us to below-average temperatures.

 

Very repetitive pattern this winter.
