Losing the -NAO? We’re about to have a strong -NAO/-AO. Who cares if it temporarily rises back up in 2 weeks? They’re cyclical.

And it keeps getting closer and closer. Very nice. Still want to keep expectations low with climatology, but looking at what's coming I'm deep down hoping we score.
The 18z GEFS is nothing short of amazing 192hrs through end of the run. If we get that pattern to lock in on into winter, we will score. Love that +PNA, and just extra with the -NAO to boot.
Hmm, starting to think our first threat may actually appear before December.
This is the 18z GFS and it looks amazing.
The 12z Euro/EPS is different, but it too shortly pumps the PNA and carves out a strong east trough. However, if the euro/EPS bias on under pumping the western ridge still occurs, something decent may pop in this time frame.
Buckle up.

What a beautiful tall ridge in the west. That's how we got the storm last year in December. Would be fun to do it again. Just have to watch trends but it's time to start watching anyway.Hmm, starting to think our first threat may actually appear before December.

It doesn’t take into account the lee side , Savannah River heat bubble!
lol but I see a blue CAD finger so that means BLOCKING. Swiss Model monthlies handle the urban heat islands better
Gotta love the 2 week 33 degree snow forecast. They’re smelling something all right. It’s called rain 
In all seriousness I can’t wait to see this -NAO feature on the models in the next couple of weeks/months. It’s been a while. Should make for some epic 240hr clown maps even if it ends up raining

If I remember correctly. The weather channel app and website gets it weather data directly from the gfs model. It has no human factor input in it. At least in the long range forecast.
Other than it being hour 336, this track is right where we want.... give me that inevitable NW trend and jackpot
Yep. 2m’s are fine for many. 850’s are fine for many. We can do better than a 1028 though. One can imagineOther than it being hour 336, this track is right where we want.... give me that inevitable NW trend and jackpot
That’s actually a quite perfect setup for snow in Carolinas.. NW trend and it’s all fun and games.. The high pressure placement is perfect as it will most likely strengthen as we get closer to time.

Yes. was thinking the same thing. Love having something to watch out for so early in the season.
