I choose several analogs. One may chosen because of QBO, another because of ENSO, another PDO, another solar. That's how I compile an analog blend. That is what I was trying to get at....using 1978 doesn't mean necessarily that we will have a record breaking blizzard, nor a neg NAO in the seasonal mean, however it implies that at least a like period is an enhanced likelihood. I would be very careful about going wall-wall pos NAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stadiumwave Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 The warm blob in the GOA & Bering Sea is really getting steamy. Can't really find any years where that whole region was a warm blob. Theres the GOA warm blob DJF in 2013...but ot does not compare: Of course theres 2014 where the entire east PAC was on fire: Something to keep an eye on. When there are large positive anomalies in that part of PAC during winter it's been known to bode well in east U.S. And no...I'm not saying the warmer than average anomalies drive the pattern but rather are indicative of it. The strong NW Canadian ridging UKMET, Euro, & JAMSTEC advertise for winter probably will come to fruition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ssts do not drive the pattern, but they can help to re enforce a stable atmospheric configuration....agreed. It's another puzzle piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 New jma is out. Looks really nice overall. Probably not quite as cool as the ukmet and ecmwf given the lack of ridging in ak and the pna region seen on the European guidance. December has the Aleutian low into the Bering which isn't as ideal as some other guidance. Looks better in Jan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Basically all guidance is good. Judah worried about the lackluster beginning of snow advance in western Siberia per his Twitter. I’m not sure the SAI is a reasonably reliable index given the sample size and recent results. Also, with the rest of October looming it could change.

Also, with the rest of October looming it could change. North American snow, mainly in Canada, is above normal as well. Glad that Judah sticks to his guns, but you have to think with the past few winters there may be more going on than just how much/how fast snow builds up in Siberia in October.

CoastalWx Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 The guy is bright and I don’t take that back. But, when you claim to be right for the wrong reason like in 2014 and get away with it....I’m sorry...you lost me there as a scientist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Harvey genuinely likes him but Harvey also has little use for LR forecasting imo. He doesn't even like making 7 day forecasts let alone 3-5 months. Harvey looks more than happy to hand that job to Judah imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use GIMP; it's got a fairly steep learning curve to understand how layers work but once you're up to speed you can make some nice looking products relatively quickly; here's an example.

Greg Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Looks good so far but we need to get through October before things really start to fall into place. Love the idea and look of a potential "Bread and Butter" weak El Nino pattern occurring. Very Classic look but still of course too early. I'm very interested in how it pans out, hopefully very well. I'll keep checking in time to time to see what the latest discussion is and how it's shaping up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it’s Movember, keep the mower on standby.... and when it’s Blizzember, call your plow guy immediately, don’t even look at your local forecast.
