One thing that has happened irt the 6th System in particular is the Ridge out West is further West and not very strong allowing the SW System to pull the Cold further west as well.

     We wanted the Trough further west than what we had in early December and what was being advertised but, didn't count on it dropping down the Rockies and Southern Plains as looks to be the Case. A tad further East down the Plains/ Ms Valley with the storm either transferring to Gulf or moving ene from Louisiana/Mississippi area would be great. As it stands, it may alter the 500mb Structure.

    With the MJO projected low amp 8 to possibly 1 it may not be enough to help if the structure gets off kilter from what we want and has been advertised so long. Could be what the EPS is "glitching"  on . Just a wild arse guess.

We haven't just lost the deterministic Euro.  We have lost the EPS top to bottom.  It has thrown out some really strange runs of late(just every once in a while after being rock steady for more runs than I can count).  Temp wise, it has lost a good chunk of the cold as well - entire run.  I think what is going on right now is that modeling is struggling with very cold temps coming into NA along with a complex storm pattern.  Right now, I don't trust any of them.  However, the 12z GEFS and GEPS seem to be pretty steady without any breaks in continuity.  For now...for now...I ride with those two and toss the EPS.  Operational Euro is probably good through d6 or d7.  I would suspect ice to rain for Sunday....but I don't trust any model right now.  Ride with the ensembles until things settle down a bit.  We generally go through wild swings when cold air is in play.  Also, when do models lose storms?  Yep, bout right now.

Yeah, this isn’t a Lucy with the football situation. It’s probably more the models rubbing their eyes, second guessing data validity.

18z ICON has a totally different solution and has the 500mb low spinning/wandering off the California coast at hour 100. Completely cut it off.

The 500 vort maps cut it off west of Baja!!!!  Talk about digging into the Southwest(in the eastern Pac now).  Like it looks tropical at 500.  LOL

It took advantage of the buy one get second one half price. 

Bout like the NCAA selection committee giving Boise State to PSU for a second round game AFTER giving them SMU for a first round game.  Just makes no sense whatsoever.   At least I can watch football tomorrow and not have to suffer through watching the Jan 6 low cut all day on modeling!
