Blowvember - and not named for wind potential

That’s an upstate NY special on GFS. Does match climo a lot better than an SNE snowstorm. Still hope it comes back SE though. Would be nice to even just get on the board with small accumulations.

Aren’t threats on the front end of a pattern chance usually more of long shots anyways? Even March 2018 the first threat ended up being a massive rainstorm with snow confined to elevations (Mar 2nd 2018). Some guidance buried us 5-6 days out but ultimately the airmass was too warm. The pattern change in Jan 2015 too, again the models showed us getting buried with 12-18 inches a week or so out and then the storm trended towards a hugger. The point is whiffing on the first storm after a pattern change is typical and doesn’t mean the pattern change failed or this is anything like the abomination that was the past 2 winters. Things will be different this year.

With no high to the north + the western ridge axis being west of ideal for east coast cyclogenesis I would favor a hugger or inside runner solution with rain for the coast and snow confined to NNE and elevations. The solution on the 12z Canadian is a good middle ground between the 12z Euro and 18z gfs. It fits the pattern.

Lots of idiots on social media hyping a Black Friday Blizzard.

Only chance of that happening is the PV lobe pushing further SE than currently progged and then sharpening that shortwave just enough to bomb it on the coast. Theoretically plausible but very unlikely.

Serious ass wind out there tonight. Way better than the high wind warnings during the summer.

Often our best wind events over interior SNE are backside CAA in winter/cold season. We can rip on those.

I wonder what its like in the Plains or like Montana when they get big wind events and are sustained 50-60 mph and gusting to 80. That must be fun

I experienced one in the texas panhandle one time. Was up in Dalhart, TX and there was a very strong synoptic wind event and it was relentless. There’s no trees to stop anything out there in the high plains. Just constant battering of 40-50 and gusts way higher.

I would love to experience something like that but I'm fearful I will be airborne
