Probably need to make a thread for this weekend into Monday 👀

With EAR on my side, I will go all in on the storm idea between the 2nd and 5th. I really like that time period as it is also pretty close to the period where I expect a transition. I will post Asia later tonight.

That’s the one I was looking at!

The GFS and Euro handle the storm differently East of Japan, but the general thought is there.

What's also fun about this system is that we have the potential for interaction between jets. I expect there to be a lobe of the PV floating around at this point. It's a long way off and the models do not have the interaction currently, but I'll use the 500mb to show what I mean. All we can ask for at this point is something to track, and we finally have a few of them. :classic_love:

One can hope but honestly if we are not going to have a 50/50 or a west based -NAO i would want the weight of the cold across eastern Canada and cold semi retreating from our area. This would help squash the persistent Nova Scotia high with those anomalously warm SST we have over the east. That thing is killing us storm after storm nothing can set up shop near the 50/50 spot and a high slides right on in leaving us on the SW side of the high which is dominated by SE flow.

I would say the first couple days need to be watched for a big system, maybe coastal like? If we are to get the cold in the east we need a big system. There could be a system at the end of January and another trailing not too far behind for the first couple days of February. The overall pattern is still rather transient but we will be getting ok ish cross-polar flow to help seed the cold. Im hopeful there is a chance to get an inch of snow this year!

I agree with everything you stated, yet I believe after these storms, it is going to get difficult quick for non-snow inclined areas. That’s why I’m going all in now.  Watch, there will be a monster in early March 😛

Yea I mean I have seen it snow 18" on the first day of spring around here so it is not out of the question. Lets see what happens like I said I still expect at least one more storm to be cutting or apps runner (with more snow falling west that could be the better answer) after this Wednesday storm that will help make the push for cold to spread much further than just Montana and some of the upper Midwest. I would look around the 5th maybe as a timeframe to watch with cold retreating for the potential of a coastal?

Interesting times ahead I just like an active storm track.

It's about time we see someone in the upper plains throwing mugs of hot water into the air.

I'll be sure to toss my coffee up while I launch the balloon. 😁
