What does the EURO look like in terms of Arctic air. The GFS has sort of backed off a bit, displacing it more to our NW. Of course, that was just one run. The GFS has been all over the map on everything the last several weeks. 

The mean is very cold through Jan 8th, and then it warms up the 9th through the 12th (end of run) because the trough pulls back to the NW. (-PNA)

Today's run of the JMA is headed that direction as well.

12z GEM with the completely different solution......  Strengthens a system in the west and drops it SE so after the cold air initial moves through, it warms up ahead of the system which is dropping SE. Snows pretty good over the NE 1/2 of MO. The colder air then dumps in behind. Might be just a GEM thing and the Euro won't follow.

12z Euro has a bit of light snow on the 5th for mainly MO/KS. It has a different look to the trough in the west. Big trough in the center of the country in the later hours. 

Yeah. Not a fan. 3 runs in a row of good and now this. Lol. Waiting on the ENS control.

The winter of ill repute continues on. What a joke so far.

Yep just as bad as last season if not worst so far with this crazy warmth! Its just bleh and boring so far. I don't trust anything these long range models show anymore until we hit 12-24 hours now before an event lol. It does appear to get colder but how long that sticks around who knows haha

Yeah I'm afraid the pattern is set.  Cold, dry, warm up rain a little.   I remember JB used to say the weather in November the winter will remember.  We're in trouble if that holds.  I really didn't think it could get worse than last winter, but..

It'll probably change before it gets here anyway. It changed from last night, and you have basically the 3 major models all showing different solutions at this point. I'm not sure why there wasn't a bigger overrunning response this run with a less positively tilted trough on the Euro. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised to see a big storm up in the Dakotas, a big storm that impacts our area, or nothing at all.

JB hasn't been the same in a long time. He's pretty bad at weather now. Before the big warm up happened before Christmas, he was saying the models were wrong and it's going to be cold. He had a giant rant on how wrong the JMA was, only to completely reverse himself 1-2 days later when the rest of the models went to the JMA. Today he said he likes the weather pattern and expects a big winter storm from the Southern Plains to I-95 coming up. We'll see.

It depends on when and how fast the pattern sets up. At the start of the season I posted 4 analog years in maps on here. While all different slightly they were more the same than not at that point in time. Some years advanced through the seasonal progression faster than others but in reality, most of your patterning begins in October, imo. They have all worked collectively the way I thought they would. The cold shots throughout the rest of winter were a guarantee but snow does not follow rules like rain does. Lol

Weeklies are a mess. There's probably a warmup just around/past Mid-Jan, and then more cold shots right after. I see -AO at times, -EPO at times, overall it looks like another period of flip a coin around/past mid-month and more toughing in the eastern US in Feb.

Without holding too close to any specific model or model run, the pattern for late week looks conducive to winter weather of some sort. Don't know if it will be a "big deal" type of system, but it looks like we should wind up with some wintry weather out of the pattern. Details to still be worked out, of course...

Yeah, I see a period in there where the cold could get into just the right spot later on down the road where we could all do really well but the snow maps don't support the idea. We do better it seems in times where the cold is right above or slightly east of us.
