Why don’t people scream and yell at me for my thoughts later in December? Oh that’s right, because I said it could be favorable and this place is loaded with weenies. No howling and growling there lol.
 

TBH I am nervous my forecast was too conservative. I'd rather that, though....two awful busts in a row that were to aggressive. I don't want to get the JB rep because its difficult to shake lol

I am pretty confident the N Pacific is going to be decent....what needs to be ironed out is whether or not its just a -WPO with no blocking and a +EPO, like 1999, or we also get the -EPO a la 2013 and/or some blocking mixed in. I hedged mainly -WPO with some blocking early and late, but if the -EPO is also consistently negative, then that is a the game-changer.

The next 2-3 weeks will be key because if the late November into December favorable stretch doesn't get muted or attenuated, then we are probably in business for the season. If you recall last season the favorable December flip got totally stripped down to just a bried NAO flex, which got laregely negated by the monster trough out west.

I am also pretty confident we will see some blocking this year....the EPO is the big question for me.

Same. Last thing I wanted though is another 65" forecast that ends up 33" and Kev lighting up my threads with AIT. Honestly, though...can't always chase upside.

I’ve never done that. You put a lot of effort into it. I usually don’t agree with them but appreciate all the time you spend

I'm being facetious. But honestly...I don't care how much time is put in, you have to be mindful of trends with respect to bias and make changes to methodology when its not working out. This is why I have tried to incorporate climate change a lot more and address West Pacific aspects this season.

This was the first cold air of the season . CAA and the hills get cold and it stays cold during the day. Tonight will be a faker. 
26.1 now 

It was a faker this morning. MWN warmer than MHT.

There was WAA at 850mb. What are you talking about?

The inversion was just up higher than it normally is but it’s the same “fake” properties.

We still had a decent delivery at 925 here (albeit warming some) combined with nighttime cooling despite the inversion way up high. Not the super fake stuff where the top of my head is 15 degrees warmer than my feet.

I guess in my mind it wasn’t just colder with height through the column.  Good rad night when MWN is warmest place around.

Just went from 20F to 34F at 2,600ft as the inversion broke.
