But simply using the AO isn’t going to work past a week since the current AO doesn’t have much predictability past a few days. It can flip quickly sometimes. Now certain patterns that create stable feedback loops like the current pac/AO combo can suggest persistence. But simply using the AO value to predict the next week/month is risky. Expand I was referring to both the magnitude and duration of the AO. So far this season it has achieved several records in the positive phase. Although the NAO is extremely unpredictable at short leads, as you are aware, I have found the AO because of the nature of the domain and other related factors and drivers to be easier to forecast at long leads. Some seasonal forecasters have done a stellar job at predicting the predominant AO phase for the met winter. Even Don S has posted many updates where he ties in the AO phase, magnitude and duration to produce possible examples of the winter weather prospects pretty far ahead in time. Also, using the vortex as a guide has been usefull as well. Early in the season it appeared most of our cold was from vortex elongations and mid to later in the season, the strong vortex vacillation cycle of the 20th of the month, as mentioned by HM has worked very well for colder outbreaks but of short very duration.
