Feel like the pattern is pretty ripe for a good setup on this look…hopefully the shortwaves cooperate Expand Yeah sure hope so. After 1000+ days of not seeing a 4”+ event, let’s get something to go right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted November 23, 2024 Share Posted November 23, 2024 That looks very good going forward, We will get something to work out, Have to break the bad luck streak of the past few years when we had a decent period and it didn't produce. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ridge position out west is not a suppression look so maybe once the ridge in the Davis Straits weakens that may help? In any case, for early in the season I can’t complain about this look. Of course expectations in check. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But esp for the coast, you want the trough axis pretty close…esp in December. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted November 23, 2024 Share Posted November 23, 2024 I bought a gallon of stabilized gas for the snowblower Thursday night. I’m gonna top it off before we leave for IAH Monday and then hope for minimal delays returning home Friday.

Pretty sure my initial thoughts a few weeks ago will be tossed. Expand Eh...yea, our December idea is in peril, but I'm not sure we don't still end up +3ish on the month when its 60 on Xmas.

HoarfrostHubb Posted November 23, 2024 Share Posted November 23, 2024 I am thinking December winds up AN in terms of temp. A general +2 or +3 seems likely. The requisite parakeets in Christmas trees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
