NAO looks positive, save for a couple members.

Ensemble mean of eps does show some blocking.  Sign of NAO notwithstanding.  Sometimes the numerical value does not tell the story as it may be mslp differences or even h5 at specific locations.

The EPS looks like a two day transience with that warm up ... Not sure how that compares to the operational per se... but, that's only "devastating" because we've been devastated by dearth and only adds to torment.

But, truth be told, ...could almost just be construed as a thaw anyway - most winters have them.   We been cold enough to snow, just no snow ... So, as far as "thawing" is concerned, snow is/was never really a part of that - it's about pattern roll outs and temperature recovery ... 

Usually prior to some form or another of a reload so... unfortunately, whether winter enthusiasts feel they have patience to endure a thaw or not - because of taxation and tolls already rendered ....

too bad.

Yeah it's warm D8-10 but there's actually some signs it could get tempered by a high to the north lurking...we'll see. Beyond that the pattern looks very good...not perfect...but very good. Seems to be a theme though. Can't score when the pattern is merely good to very good.

Well yeah ...that's certainly the frustration root, right there.

But ... I was thinkin ...  if it did not snow again this winter, then, take (2015+this winter)/2 ...we might be about average...  I know I know...good luck selling fairness -

Low of 6, nigh of 7, PSN down to 67%.    I’m guessing the entire column is easily sub freezing.   MOS has some wtf moments.

It isn't though. TVF is flirting with 0C at 850 on the 3rd ahead of the next system coming out of the Rockies. The high of 7F would indicate steady or falling temps through the 12-00z period. I mean, the 12z temp there is 13F and 00z is 3F.

No it wasn't. If you win here, and it lures you into continuing to bet me, I'm fine with it because I'm sure I'll come out ahead in the long run.

No one is right all of the time, but I'm comfortable with my track record.

What you described is typical but the past few days are way colder.  -10 to +10 and a lot colder coming mid week.

It's very clear the SSW destroyed many forecasts, it was clear in December the SSW would focus the cold and snow into Europe, many dismissed this saying it didn't matter.  It clearly did and I strongly believe the strong MJO in unfavorable phases is due to the strong and long SSW event.

Europe has been cold but that isn't where the largest chunk of it went....

I agree with this...at least to an extent. I think it provides deconstructive interference to atlantic blocking because of where the warming occured. That is what mattered. However I was right that there would still be enough cold, but I failed to foresee 1) The fact that we'd even have a SSW this season 2) The it would prove inimical to n atl blocking.

Heh... man, at -15 to -35 F over here on the "warm side of the SSW" ...guess we dodged a bullet, huh. 

Firstly, SSW's don't deliver cold ?  It is unclear at best whether certain individual understands the rudimentary facets of the SSW model to begin with, and no ... no one else in the greater ambit of worthy writers on the subject matter, ever implicated the SSW directly to cold without at least tacit recognition of how that works; unlike this special kind of stupid asshole's comment implies they believe: "it was clear in December the SSW would focus the cold and snow into Europe, "  As if it is even necessary to say... what the f* does snow have to do with SSW's ?

Secondly, everyone should try to adopt at least some attempt to understand the psychology behind someone's intents ... and in some cases antics. It'll help you put them into perspective, and... you'll be less inclined to indulge their strategy. 

It's not a tough read. It's not audacious or inappropriate to do so, either.  This is a text-book case of frustrations ..regardless of exact triggers, then needing a place to vent, they feel cozy in doing so from a desk-top and/or hand held device out in the oblivion of the electronic Universe - i.,e.,, trolling in anonymity.  It's cowardly and most cases, out-of-line and as the above course work certainly exposed, wrong.  Hate to extend the elementary method (but being that his is open to the public ... you have douchy adolescence and/or suspended developed adult jaggovs amongst you), ... the only way that can be controlled?  Completely and utterly ignoring them.  Particularly since moderation on this forum is relaxed since this became an enterprise. 

Block if you must ... do whatever you need to, but that individual's tactic  is clear:  once in a while, post something seemingly cogent, thinking that affords enough clout enough to then execute his/her real intent, abuse of other's insights because he/she cannot produce enough of their own to protect them from their own frustration.

So it appeared to me a couple days ago that the Euro operational ...and to some lesser extent, it's ensemble mean (dreadfully known as the   E P S s s s  ), may be overcooked with the warm up ...scale of anomaly, time length ..etc.    I speculated that it may come down to just two days of more transient warm sector penetration ...partial dance around -impetus is that said warm sector could be contaminated at that, implied... 

Last night's 00z run performed a much more coherent correction in favor of that insight. In fact, the operational version even offers an ice potential during the same period it had a day plausibly in the 60s just two runs ago.  

Also, ice event phenomenon is favored in that general large synoptic evolution/period... at least when employing the balance of the GEFs tele's ... Seeing trends like this in the operational runs merely becomes a probabilistic fit ... "Ice storms" ... in fact, any magnitude there in is completely unknown.  Just that it is something to look for -

Ironically ... the oper. Euro went from the most emphatic warm solution to the more seasonal neutral solution ....effectively reversing places with the GFS ... which seems more interested in deeper warm sectors all of the sudden - I disagree with that for the same antecedent reasoning ... It's own ensemble eofs have -AO riding over a top a neutral PNA ... that doesn't exactly scream torrid heights up to the Del Marva

So it appeared to me a couple days ago that the Euro operational ...and to some lesser extent, it's ensemble mean (dreadfully known as the   E P S s s s  ), may be overcooked with the warm up ...scale of anomaly, time length ..etc.    I speculated that it may come down to just two days of more transient warm sector penetration ...partial dance around -impetus is that said warm sector could be contaminated at that, implied... 

Last night's 00z run performed a much more coherent correction in favor of that insight. In fact, the operational version even offers an ice potential during the same period it had a day plausibly in the 60s just two runs ago.  

Also, ice event phenomenon is favored in that general large synoptic evolution/period... at least when employing the balance of the GEFs tele's ... Seeing trends like this in the operational runs merely becomes a probabilistic fit ... "Ice storms" ... in fact, any magnitude there in is completely unknown.  Just that it is something to look for -

Negative EPO with troughiness in the west is def a synoptic setup where ice is more common. Euro actually did have ice in the D8-9 system over interior. Obviously that doesn't mean too much at this time lead but it shows how it would happen if we got that lower level oozing of cold underneath the upper level ridging in the east.

Heh... man, at -15 to -35 F over here on the "warm side of the SSW" ...guess we dodged a bullet, huh. 

Firstly, SSW's don't deliver cold ?  It is unclear at best whether certain individual understands the rudimentary facets of the SSW model to begin with, and no ... no one else in the greater ambit of worthy writers on the subject matter, ever implicated the SSW directly to cold without at least tacit recognition of how that works; unlike this special kind of stupid asshole's comment implies they believe: "it was clear in December the SSW would focus the cold and snow into Europe, "  As if it is even necessary to say... what the f* does snow have to do with SSW's ?

Secondly, everyone should try to adopt at least some attempt to understand the psychology behind someone's intents ... and in some cases antics. It'll help you put them into perspective, and... you'll be less inclined to indulge their strategy. 

It's not a tough read. It's not audacious or inappropriate to do so, either.  This is a text-book case of frustrations ..regardless of exact triggers, then needing a place to vent, they feel cozy in doing so from a desk-top and/or hand held device out in the oblivion of the electronic Universe - i.,e.,, trolling in anonymity.  It's cowardly and most cases, out-of-line and as the above course work certainly exposed, wrong.  Hate to extend the elementary method (but being that his is open to the public ... you have douchy adolescence and/or suspended developed adult jaggovs amongst you), ... the only way that can be controlled?  Completely and utterly ignoring them.  Particularly since moderation on this forum is relaxed since this became an enterprise. 

Block if you must ... do whatever you need to, but that individual's tactic  is clear:  once in a while, post something seemingly cogent, thinking that affords enough clout enough to then execute his/her real intent, abuse of other's insights because he/she cannot produce enough of their own to protect them from their own frustration.  

 

He’s exposed himself as a fraud troll on here multiple times . He’s a high school kid with an ax to grind
