An ideal winter are light events in December and March with a MECS+ and 2 SECS, in any order, in January/February. 2 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bncho Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago The pattern looks really good. I think the next few days might play out like this. Dec 22-23: cold and dry Dec 24-27: moderation Dec 28-Jan 1: brief warmup (no torch) Jan 2-3: 1st shot of cool air (not arctic by any means, -3 to -5 below average) Jan 4: brief warm up Jan 5 and onwards: colder and possibly snowier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The advantage to several events is that we won't have Ji complaining for years because it was a wasted storm. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather like the moderate events. Sometimes they occur in a colder period where we can get a few, and the rare 'snow on snow'. That happened in Jan 22, and 2 of the 3 events were 8"+ for some. Even last year as brief as our actual winter was, we had 2 light/moderate snow events within 10 days and it stayed cold so some snow was still otg when the next one hit. Maybe not memorable years later but enjoyable at the time. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be annoying and unabashed in the fact that I need this pattern to deliver early before I’d head out of town on the 7th. Jan 4-6 seems like a legit threat window. Can reload after that for a week and cook through the rest of the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be watching for trends. (WB 0Z EPS). Just be careful dude. The error rate on 300+ hours out is 100%. I'd focus more on the 290 hour period. 1 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trof axis needs to continue to retrograde west. Thr first potential period here has the feel of either Miller b or just offshore. Im aware what the euro op is showing.

I know ops are just for entertainment purposes in the 10-15 but I do like to see potential on them....even in the LR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that what we want to start seeing, though? Some really nice, even wacky solutions showing up in the deterministic and individual ensemble members out at longer range. Then of course hopefully hone in on a real one as it gets closer in time. I thought that was a problem last year, with all the drool-worthy looks for February in the extra-extended ensembles and such. It looked great on those plots, but we never really saw the "big, wild hits" show up, even from individual ensemble members. I think it was @Bob Chill who pointed that out, saying that while it looked great on those extended means, he wasn't too thrilled with what was "under the hood."
