Certainly seems that most are calling for cold and snowy in the Midwest and Ohio valley this winter. It makes me feel good, but also scared to get my hopes up. I agree with these forecasts from my observations, but lots of things can change before winter arrives.

I don't remember a -EPO supporting a +PNA. 1983 had a raging -EPO and the PNA that December was not positive, slightly negative. EPO is just high latitude blocking in the PAC.

Based on the waters around Greenland, you can see the warmth in the north and cold in the south. That supports vigorous east based nao blocking. If the EPO is more neutral and maybe a bit positive, that could lead to a nice combination in December.

 

Sure, you can have that. However, my point is that very often in -weak Nina's often -EPO is accompanied by ridging in the west & SW U.S....which normally leads to +PNA.

 

Was not implying that every time you have -EPO you'll have a +PNA. I'd love to see a PNA closer to neutral or weak negative.

The CPC will issue their winter outlook today. It will be interesting to see what they have to say, especially with the reissue of the Nina watch last week.

Here is the outlook for November

Certainly looks plausible for this winter. I think I would probably extend the colder temps further south a bit, but overall it looks good. I like that they are calling for a wet signal in the Ohio valley as well and once again makes sense with our friend the southeast ridge.

Gotta remember those are not proposed temp anomalies but probabilities. Big difference
