Lol 6z GFS for next Sunday. Anafrontal events with dynamic cooling needed to get snow. We excel at those!!

Can count on one hand the number of times those events worked out. It's not all my fingers either, I can tell you that haha. Best one in my memory was one when I was in college in November of all months. Back in Baltimore.....meh

I mean, sure, it can happen. But I’ll believe it when I’m shoveling.

Anafrontal events producing snow seem to show up pretty frequently in the LR on the GFS. Almost never materialize ofc.

They materialize, just not here. Last year at Christmas the entire region from Chattanooga to Rochester got hammered with one.

With this increasingly coherent MJO passage past the dateline, we should start to see some response in the ensemble mean 500mb anomalies. But  yikes, they haven’t yet.

 

Might be a case where the ensembles 'catch on' and flip within a few runs, but I am more inclined to think it will take some time before the longwave pattern shifts. Still seeing hints on the extended products at the very end of the month.

I'm going on my first vacation since before COVID and leaving Saturday.  Would make perfect sense that the first snow in 4yrs falls on the time when I'm gone.

If you are talking about the one circa 15 Nov in 1987, I remember it well...  Was a tremendous surprise.  Brought the DC commute to its knees...
