Pattern January Joke

it's a cool look. i don't know what i'm rooting for. if we keep that SW trend going with the trough position, i would be a little concerned about our shortwave getting strung out and losing shape. with the trough digging so much you also run the risk of accidentally pumping up a ridge ahead. looking at these ukmet previews coming in (a fine, legitimate weather model) showing a warm qpf bomb makes me think it went in that direction. i think this will be fun to track this and there's less risk of heartbreak than usual (but still on the table)

The general setup brings back some memories of 2014 and 2017 with the just unexpected madness last minute. Was thinking maybe something like this would trend but I started losing hope about 30 hours ago or so lol.
 
These are some impressive trends I must say. This all hinges on how much energy can dive into this developing ULL and then how much separation it can attain to pull that trough axis neutral or even negative id if digs deep enough. The ceiling for precip is high and these dynamic setups from a deep upper low don't really show their true self until you're almost there. UKMET is on the upper end, but the trend could continue...
 
Maybe things work like they used to? this is typically the part in the game where we’d been getting jackpotted for 2-3 days with a perfect transfer from Jax to Sav only for models to start showing a transfer up through the midlands. That Ukie popping a surface low tonight off the coast of Jax gets the blood flowing

Considering there’s still 4.5 days to go, I’d be surprised based on a combo of climo that says that snow in the deep SE is pretty rare and model biases/trends when no -NAO if the common NW trend doesn’t take my and other deep SE areas out of snow within a few runs. But you never know, which makes these discussions so fascinating.

-NAO is expected to show up shortly. Racing towards it right now. right now we're weak +NAO but teleconnections show us rapidly diving into a -NAO the next few days.
 
Long time no see! But man oh man I had to come back with this potential on the board for my homeland! Really is shades of December 2017 except you all have 100+ hours to trend it even better.

This has all the markings of a wicked storm for a lot of people in the southeast. Maybe even one of the more memorable storms In a long time.

This can easily trend into a big big dog for some and even get coastal communities involved.

The energy, the tilt, the trend inside 150 hours. It’s all what you want to see. Biggest thing that makes me believe is the injection of cold air at the start. You have cold air already in place and that’s what you truly need to get a widespread memorable storms In across the SE.
