Sure! For now my idea was a dart toss at a La Nina climo map most favorable for snow, lol 

But if I go through with it, it'll be a family trip with the wife and kid in tow... though I might want to hit the steeper slopes with a fellow skier while they stick with the bunnies B)

Early word is JB’s favoring 95-96 as his top analog

Euro has a southern wave..like way south into Mexico, but it won't be able to amplify.   On to 18 and 0z!  

Every model run thar does that it just looks like the wave says PD3 as it slides south...man the psu storm...hope it works. We can't get shutout this month and gamble with March to try to get to 25-30" like many predictions did. We may have an idea in 10 days...(when that storm would be in modeling range)

I know this PD3 wave will likely be suppressed, but damn, the look of that storm brewing in the plains on all the globals around D7 gets my loins movin’…

Did you guys see my NG research? It's since fallen down to 1.83 https://ibb.co/kxdbZSs

Since 1998, top 7 +Natural Gas analogs for February averaged 8.3, bottom 4 Natural Gas analogs for February averaged 2.2. We are at 1.97, the 3rd lowest on record in that time, fitting the extreme situation guideline.

Here are the top 11 +analogs for March.. based on Feb's NG price:

^that's Feb high/low NG price rolled forward into March (so a +1 month lead time).  I don't know that March's warmth will be that extreme, because a lot of LR models (GEFS, EPS, Euro) are showing below average temps through the 21st, but we probably will finish the month above normal in the NE. 

100dm is an amazing signal for something not even really related!

Furthermore, my analog set is 1998-2023.  I have 11 analogs out of the dataset.. so 11/25 years.. 41% of the total. To have a +7F average anomaly (+ and - .. more - years, for the global warming skew.. 7/11 are cold analogs) for 40% of a dataset in 25 years is amazing!

cute little wave amplifying in the midwest on the Euro...but the show is about to cut off on the next panel

Yeah it’s something. At least euro still shows a favorable pattern at D10. New gfs SOP is that everything after D10 is to revert to April basically.

Sounds jumpy. 

All ens still look good to me. Blocking, cold air feed, signal of a wave underneath us around Feb 23-24

What has really changed?

We’ve already been tracking this period for 2+ weeks and have 2 weeks to go. People are antsy and irritable. I know I’m looking forward to not hearing “MJO” for 8 more months starting March 15th.

Same, I'm tired of hearing about the damned MJO. Besides it was in the warm phases when we got that winter week in January. And it was in 8-1-2 in December and it didn't do squat for us. 

Like I said before, the waiting is the worst part. I get a little antsy too, so can't say I blame them. But DT? Come on

More and more it seems to me that the MJO is just one forcing factor among many others. So many Mets have been taking it as some purely prescriptive forecaster.

There was one winter where every time the MJO entered Phase 8 it snowed just like magic. Became my favorite indicator because of that and because it’s very easy to understand, lol
