And if Joe is right then the winter could look much different then originally thought.. just my opinion.. maybe someone with alot more knowledge of the enso patterns could chime in Latest CPC update from last week said ENSO-neutral now with a Nina forecasted to be weak for the winter. https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso_advisory/ensodisc.pdf 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted Monday at 11:05 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:05 PM 15z GFS seems to be on board with a more robust evolution. Looking good and ~72 hours away. Turn in that PTO form. Think I might’ve made myself too important and have to work at least half of Friday. I’ll assess a Friday evening overnighter! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynwx99 Posted Monday at 11:39 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:39 PM in terms of what we might be able to expect going forward, the Pacific jet is obviously of great importance. it seems like we're going to see a rather potent jet, though one that's still closer to Japan. it also remains equatorward, which is important when looking at more favorable winters like 2010, 2013, and 2020, there is a solid signal for a more potent jet (2/3 years are equatorward), and most importantly, there is ample wave breaking out ahead of the jet streak. this is for around a 10 day period from the end of Nov into the first week of Dec when looking at the less favorable years like 1998, 1999, 2001, and 2007, the jet extends much too far, is more poleward, and there is much less wave breaking as a result therefore, it's important to see how the jet behaves over the next 10 days or so. the more equatorward presentation of the jet is partly why we're seeing troughing set up so much near HI... if it was poleward, those troughs would be pushing into the ridge or even allowing those troughs to move closer to the GoAK 16 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted Monday at 11:48 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:48 PM I am feeling pretty confident that a lot of us will see our first flakes later this week. One storm at a time for me going forward. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormchaserchuck1 Posted Tuesday at 04:41 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:41 AM Actually some pretty nice precip with the cutoff storm system Thurs-Fri for northern MD.. something like 0.25" on the 0z gfs with borderline temps. I doubt it accumulates to much, but not ruling some snow out for me and psuhoffman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted Tuesday at 02:40 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:40 PM Verbatim 06z Euro drops a few inches in favored spots Friday morning. Gets flakes down to DC. It’s been a subtle trend in that direction starting with yesterday’s runs but maybe we can get lucky and have it continue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted Tuesday at 03:38 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:38 PM RGEM pretty similar to the Euro. PSU land would probably see a dusting at least. Maybe a snow shower out this way from a streamer or two. Somebody up in northern MD should probably start a thread. We are 2 days out from our first chance at some flakes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted Tuesday at 04:19 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:19 PM Mesonet data show 4" soil temperatures arounds 50-55 degrees. Going to be interesting to see how much this cold push cools the soils off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltosquid Posted Tuesday at 07:18 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 07:18 PM I'd just like some mood flakes to get things started. Durable accumulations east of the mountains for this weekend are off the table, but maybe there will be a few scattered heavy flurries trailing down from the PA border that juuuust make it to 95.

brooklynwx99 Posted Tuesday at 08:22 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:22 PM really good agreement on all ensembles for a -EPO/-WPO pattern to form with cross polar flow. want to see this get inside the D5-7 range, though it is encouraging 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted Tuesday at 08:28 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:28 PM WPO/EPO combo will help ensure that there is some real cold available and not weak-sauce modified crap like we’ve had in recent years. Two big things though to watch: 1. Does all the cold air dump in the west and keep the SE ridge flexed? 2. If the cold air does come east, is it just 2-4 days of dry cold that quickly lifts out when a powerhouse 1014mb low approaches? 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
