LongBeachSurfFreak Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 7 hours ago, bluewave said: The Euro seasonal was posted on their free site which originally came out on November 5th. It continues this late November -EPO/+PNA/-AO/-NAO pattern right through March. This looks like it may be the latest version of 2010's patterns getting stuck in place for extended periods of time. If it’s going to get stuck, that’s exavtly how we want it. My confidence in a big winter is increasing. I just told my director this yesterday and his reaction was huh? Spent the daylight hours in the 30s today. Pretty amazing for mid November Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be among the strongest that we have seen this time of year since 1995. These events in the past usually continued into December and beyond in the years below. So this may very well turn out to be an important event when we look back on this winter.

LibertyBell Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 14 hours ago, donsutherland1 said: The CFSv2 has been evolving toward a colder December outlook after starting out depicting an exceptionally warm December. I suspect that the month will be blocky and the forecast development and evolution of strong Atlantic blocking at this time of year is encouraging. The pieces continue to gradually fall into place for what I believe will be a fantastic winter in terms of snowfall (much above average across the region, including interior cities such as Allentown, Scranton, and Binghamton). Don any concerns that we'll see more coastal huggers this season since that seems to be a characteristic of this month? That would make it more like 2013-14 than 2002-03. Although December 2002 had such an event that turned snowy Christmas night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of surprising that BDR and POU are both hovering near there now but I know there were lots of times where it was pouring here and they got skunked. I'll have to go back and add up the totals from 9/10 to now and see how far past 60" my area is now. I can tell you that it's so soggy in the woods it's tough to leave the more heavily traveled areas without sinking in a couple of inches. Too much mold around here. I know I'm allergic to something in high humidity because I literally cant breathe in it and get bad headaches until I turn my heat way up and then I feel better.

Temp. here has been holding near 32 for some time. Averaging closer to 33 during the last hour, 7am-8am. 34.8 at 9am. Probably will not go down again till start of precip. and evaporational cooling.

I read your other post about the strong negative NAOs in November of previous years, and the following winters, was very eye opening. Do you think this reinforces the idea of a general averaged -NAO during the upcoming season ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably have a better idea on the exact number over the next week. New run Old run Chris , This was it`s 3rd correction so far by the EPS in the last 15 days. The EPS is the king in the EP region , but it has been terrible under the ridge / block so far this November. Last week someone on here said , " the cold now looks like only 3 days long " , I thought that was wrong and was using the GEFS at 500 , it handled the Scan ridge better early on. The EPS will now bust 3 times in this pattern now and the reason is it did not understand the Scandinavian ridge and the effects underneath in the N/E . Now as it migrates to Greenland around 10 day it`s warm period between day 9 -14 look wrong. I posted this earlier away , Once again the EPS will bust here. So far I have seen the Euro not grasp the strength of the Scandinavian ridge with its result underneath east of the Mississippi. But to make matters worse you are now going to center the positive during this period over Greenland and it continues the 5 day torch theme. The GEFS has been better and will beat the Euro again Now once past day 12 , things will really begin to get interesting at the end of the month through Dec 10 with regards to this set up. Look out after from week 3 on for something major along the E/C. The upcoming period as these anomalies relax screams look out. I am curious as to when the last time the NAO/AO both achieved a -4 / -5 SB BN ? I want to say Boxing Day , but maybe UNC or DON could help out here.
