I'm not sold either way with the nao but I do strongly believe we're getting more snow this month no matter what the NAO does. That's a far better feeling than things looking hopeless and hostile. Huh...So, could we say, perhaps... Scenario 1: get the neg nao and classic coastal potential is there or Scenario 2: no neg nao help, we get more nickel and dime and events (and far from a shutout), but perhaps no classic coastal?

That's not what I said. The majority of our 4" storms or greater are when the AO is negative regardless of the state of the nao. The AO ranks higher than the NAO with correlation to snowfall in the midatlantic. We've had plenty of 6-12"+ storms over the years without a -nao. So I wouldn't say small events only without a -nao. Check out this article. It's actually pretty relavent to the stuff we've been talking about all year and an excellent explantion of things that all snow weenies should know. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2015/11/12/what-the-different-weather-patterns-might-mean-for-snow-this-winter/?utm_term=.9b5c226aedae Check this out. All our snow events happened this year with the AO negative. The large storm in Jan happened when the AO was climbing from very negative. That correlation this year isn't random.

The only time the ao was meaningfully negative the whole winter was right before that storm. Same with the nao. Incredible stroke of luck during a season that couldn't have been much worse otherwise.

So I am guessing that it wasn't much of a factor that winter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Gfs really was god awful. Flipped the AO positive and massive -pna and that’s game over. But it’s one op run of a jumpy model lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Gefs is an ambiguous conflicted mess. Some NAO blocking signal but muted. Too much SE ridge at times but that’s muted too. Pna is crappy but towards the end it seems to want to try to get an Aleutian low going. The whole thing is convoluted and adds no clarity at all good or bad.

psuhoffman Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 One thing I don’t like on the 0z gefs that isn’t Uber long range...it degraded the look for the day 10-12 threat. 18z had a much better high pressure representation. Way too much weakness and opens the door to cut on the 0z imo. 18z 0z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I didn’t like the high pressure representation as much. But in general I think the gefs is out to lunch with the mjo and so everything is shows is suspect. On the other hand the gem and jma agrees with its mjo more than the euro so nothing is a lock. There are a lot of conflicting signals showing up and confidence is extremely low even for long range right now. But I’m not going to only point out good things each run to placate the emotionally unstable. I do point out the good. (There are still some nice snowstorms on the gefs members) I’m not debbing. But the bad is there too and people should have all the evidence and then can make their own assessments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Hard to believe it's going to get that warm in El Nino.. The -PNA in Days 6-12 may end up verifying as -EPO, We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
