Marginal airmass (though at least it appears better than 12/5 as modeled) and a lot of shortwaves in the flow don't allow for much margin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a selection of radiosonde ascents from Russia & Mongolia at 12Z today, which captured the warming in the mid-stratosphere. http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html… Replying to @SimonLeeWx If the ECMWF is correct, we have good conditions for a SSW with downward impact! European blocking is the best precursor for a NAO- response (see https://doi.org/10.5194/wcd-1-373-2020… with @cgrams_lsdp and L. Papritz), and it's predicted for the first week of January! https://apps.ecmwf.int/webapps/opencharts/products/extended-regime-probabilities?forecast_from=latest… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is something to the big Ural/Barents Sea high and Aleutian low. That’s seems to really help get the displacement and/or split. Not sure it’s ever splits, but whatever. Anyways, from what I saw...very very unusual to have this in a Niña. We’ll see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
