Did you see how bad the new ECMWF ensembles look all the way to the very end of the run? Warmth and zero high latitude blocking from now till as far as the eye can see

There is clear improvement toward the end of both the GEFS and EPS runs. The Stratospheric warming event over the next week perturbs the PV enough to begin lowering heights over northern Canada which effectively begins pushing this insidious warmth out, and likely, permanently.

Putting that aside, you're still looking at a d15 prog expecting to see a -AO/-NAO that really won't begin showing on models for another 15 days after the end of the ensembles.

Hold tight. Rockin second half is coming.

There is no stratospheric warming event dude. None. Completely untrue. Lmao do you even know what that is or are you just making this up as you go along? The stratosphere is a freezer right now. Also if you think the ECMWF ensembles look good or are showing improvement at the end of the run you either need Pearl Vision or lessons on how to read a forecast model.

I haven't seen many calls of a great second half , but there have been many who believe by mid Jan this turns and the core of winter is mid Jan to mid March .

What that means remains to be seen . I am AN 2 m wise J thru M , but the models are wet and if this turns at 500 then it's not a 72/73 97 /98 type winter snow wise.

Great post wolf. I am shocked no one is mentioning anything at all about the PV.

Dude, you do realize that you don't need the atmosphere to be a block of ice to get snow, right? A brief dip in a couple teleconnections (or rise, depending on which one we're talking about) at the right time can produce a massive storm, especially when you have some warm, moist air not too far away to help aid in convection. It's a win-win situation; less heating bills and more warmth for the warm lovers, and cold and snow for the snow lovers.

 

This isn't a pattern like 2011-2012 where there was no cold air anywhere; a decent storm could definitely form in the pattern we're in, you'll just have to wait a bit.

Im still searching for my images from the snowless march last year, cant seem to find them. Have you seen them?

lol.

Anyway I think Wolf is seeing what " may" be the start of warming at 10mb as we go from this on day 1 to this on day 10 on the Euro .

Which is really a baby step but we have seen false starts before , so it will interesting to see if this continues as we get closer .

You need to start to see this sooner than later as there is a lag to the response at 500.

But it is in the guidance even if it`s slight . Whether one believes it one could make that argument but to say there is 0 disruption going on is false .
