EPS 11-15 day composite. 
 

That’s pretty classic…even with a little STJ involvement for once as others have pointed out. Potential and verification are two different things though. Hopefully it produces.

If you look at the broad troughs in the picture you’ll count 3 of them on the NHEM view of gefs and eps.  4-5 wave patterns tend to occur more frequently I think.

Oh it’s a hemispheric thing, makes sense. I imagine 3-wave patterns are higher amplitude because the same amount of energy must disperse across fewer total fluctuations, therefore each fluctuation is greater in magnitude. Can any met verify this line of thinking?

Same principal as mesovorts in strong hurricanes , fewer mesos=stronger storm

Easy now with jan96 and jan11 redux. Both euro and gfs show signs this could fail quickly. Troughs digging into Cabo…hope ens aren’t head faking us at h5.

January looking bleak

Bleak?

[Prismshine Productions]

Bleak?

0z Euro and 6z GFS did not work in our favor (should note that they don't even agree with their own end suites)

Well you have to acknowledge that just about every good 15 day multi model look has gone to crap for more than a year, so why wouldn’t this one?

I look at ensembles. Early month is shaky, but after that looks good for a time.

I just referenced the comparison between the two charts. Not a forecast.

Depends on the scale being used?

Here's hoping we don't have a shortened snow season

The trolls and the “TIT’s”(Trolls In Training) are quick to pounce on any sign of failure…grasping at OP runs 10 and 12 days out.  Wretched creatures they are. 

[CoastalWx]

I mean maybe there’s a chance, but that’s not what they show currently.

There’s always a chance…most level headed folks here know things are never iron clad.

this is the "look at long range OP runs" to get yourself worked up part of the LR forecasting process apparently lmao

[brooklynwx99]

GEFS has an overrunning type setup for the 4-5th btw. potent SS vort running into confluence. this is probably the first shot at snow for most in this pattern

Even so, I don’t know how you can claim the whole month shaky if it rains on January 4.

You can’t…but that’s the Troll(TIT) mentality.  That’s Ingenious shit.

Although I’m anxiously awaiting Ray’s blog for Jacksonville FL if the euro is right while he’s bare.
