And don't forget who started the long range thread that brought us to these lofty heights.  Don't anybody do something stupid and start the Feb thread

February may not be the unicorn month everyone is seeing at least not initially, The euro weeklikes done look inspiring. And while the CFSv2 is very wet...its not that cold

   They have different methods, but the NAM and GFS do initialize snow cover.

 

 

I'm obviously not a pro, but it's my understanding that snow cover can affect model outputs. Not sure if NAM/GFS model initialization includes snow cover along with local station and sounding readings.

Well, to be fair, that energy isn't being sampled correctly and won't be until it comes ashore.

 

Satellites do a very good job of filling in for upper air balloons in areas where they are not available. Reference dtk and the other mets that have discussed this. In all likelyhood it's probably more a factor of it 1) being far out in time and 2) Our big storm for this weekend hasn't even occurred yet.
