Misc Cold Season Complaining

IMG_0005.jpeg
Studying for my synoptic final on tuesday. I really don’t need to be studying because I have a 97, but it’s my favorite class ever so I’m gonna ace it. I wish there was a way y’all could take this class it seriously is the best thing ever.
 
It's going to be funny when everything retracts and is too far west so we go right into western trough SER pattern.
Are there any conditions anymore that can place a tough in the east?

Remember when we used to get these?

Any idea of when this map is from?

And in all seriousness I do think January still holds potential but imo there is at least a chance that on this initial giving the better pattern a go the initial drop of cold goes into the WC/Rockies before it bleeds east then the western ridge nudges east enough that it's the classic pattern for us

It's also not unusual (la ninas..) to have cold(ish) Decembers before the last 2/3rds of winter are warm. I'm really hoping this is not the case again for this year.

That unfortunately seems to be the pattern here during the last couple La Ninas at least. We are below normal for most of December and then flowers are blooming and trees are budding by Feburary. Then a cold snap hits us in April and we are back to below normal temperatures.
 
This is the exact same thing as every winter. Except this winter, we were fortunate enough to get a few cold shots in December and may finish the month below normaland have a cool Christmas, instead of torching the month away.

MJO stays unfavorable and we wipe out all the cold on our side of the globe. Then we reload for 2 weeks and get a 1 week window for snow and see the "lots of energy flying around" posts, while we stay dry, and then we warm up until late March.

Awesome.
