Exactly. I don’t like the trends currently. The ridge is moving to far west on the ensembles. This would be a continuation of the cutter/cold/dry pattern 

what does your ideal pattern look like? there is troughing showing up over the N ATL that will encourage confluence, it's not like there's a WAR or a massive ridge over Nova Scotia

Back from Iceland guys, was absolutely incredible… had about 36 hours of light - moderate snowfall when we went deeper in away from the coast. Winter wonderland, around 18-28 degrees the whole time. I’ll get some pics up in the banter thread.

Also, 6.3 for a low overnight at my house without snowcover - that’s seriously impressive. That beats the most recent cold wave around the holiday a couple years back by two full degrees here.

I think the last two Winters where we had a trough to Baja causing the southeast ridge to link up with the negative nao is entrenched in a lot of minds. We can snow with a trough out west as long as it's not as deep or position too far west.

People just want things to look absolutely perfect and stay that way for weeks one end.  Can't win.

Anyone seen Snowman19 it’s like since the modeling of a great pattern has been showing he is now where to be found. Weird.

Good late morning MCJ. S19 posted an hour ago in the Weather forecasting and discussion  section. He’s a well versed contributor and well worth reading to keep a balance. He  is post limited so he will by necessity be selective on when/where. Stay well, as always …

so even up there, the coast in Iceland doesn't get much snow?

did you see any northern lights?

the display down here in October was absolutely historic!

Reykjavik sits at the east end of a peninsula that often juts into the warmest air mass in the region, but they do absolutely see snow and they got some once we were out in the deeper parts. It's just the timing of the weather system was such that the snow turned on once we drove inland.

Only saw a brief aurora this trip, frankly we had precipitation for most of the ten days we were there! Not many chances, but we had SO much snow and I've seen incredible auroras now so many times, it was a fair trade to play in crisp Icelandic snow for most of the trip.
