In a general sense, if Canada is under mega ridges it usually means we’re under anamolus troughs/lows, and all that wave action is shifted further south than usual. You aren’t gonna set all time record lows in a pattern like that, but it can absolutely be cold enough to snow, especially in prime climo time.Serious question, how? If the source regions are starting out 20 degrees above average I can't see how that's good. We always have temp issues anyway.
Thats what we have to root for. Id be estatic with another half to 1 inch duster right before Christmas and call it a huge win. Plus we should have a good open window to take a shot at a big dog in early to mid January. Thanks for posting.GFS starting to pick up on some clipper snow action again View attachment 156081
You’re right. I’d rather have fantasy storms than none at all.The 18z GFS looks good right at the end of its run (first of January). Of course this is out in fantasy land, but this is what we want to see starting off the new month.

Where do you live near? We had nothing just north of Pittsboro.Thats what we have to root for. Id be estatic with another half to 1 inch duster right before Christmas and call it a huge win.

I’m just following the majority of the board! Everyone lives and dies by every operational model! Same ole , Same ole!My goodness. Folks tossing in the towel on December 16th. What you say could be true but its a long way from being over.
Nw Randolph County. We had solid 3/4 inch. Sw part of county over an inchWhere do you live near? We had nothing just north of Pittsboro.
Just a note, showed something similar (nothing) until a day or 2 out before the last light event for NC. Columns are not far off from saturation
Please let this happen again
Yeah, I think you’re onto something fro

How many times have we seen this whiff setup over the last 2-3 years? It’s crazy to me that we see these a few times a year now. What’s the reason we can’t get a wave to do this exact same thing except a couple hundred miles back to the west? Nothing ever digs across the middle of the country anymore. It’s always this late bloomer coastal bullsh** year after year after year. What’s the tipping point? Honestly@ILMRoss probably likes the ICON trend, still work to do if a certain NE NC dude can catch a rogue flake lol

It seems like every time we get these WC ridge pumps recently they are too flat or too far E likely owing to the overall stronger pac jet the last few years. Combine that with a real lack of a legitimate long lasting well established true -nao and magically everything is either biased north or eastHow many times have we seen this whiff setup over the last 2-3 years?

For Christmas my number one weather wish is always for snow. But my second is for no torch. The 6z GFS, at least, would give me that.Passing Along: Scanned the Euro and Canadian to get a consensus on temps through Holliday week coming up. Seeing about tee times. No Bueno this weekend through Christmas Day, unless you like playing with temps in the 30's/near 40 for highs.
26th-NYD temps here we get low 50's ( saw a 54 New Years Eve on Euro). Problem is it looks like moisture is gonna be a threat Those days ( New years Eve and Day) for right now. Weekend of 28-29th are your best bet. Perfect if you ask me. My fav golf wx is temps in the 50's with sun and no breeze. As there is no bugs, Humidity, sweating involved.
Playing today before I go back to the back surgeon for consultation Friday! They saying low 60s today I say it happens right when we are about through, like 18th hole. lol. Currently foggy and 48 damp degrees...Passing Along: Scanned the Euro and Canadian to get a consensus on temps through Holliday week coming up. Seeing about tee times.

GFS is a lot warmer than Canadian/Euro post Christmas temps. GFS , just like summer always over exaggerates its temps in the long range. Been my experience/ no actual science to back that statement up.For Christmas my number one weather wish is always for snow. But my second is for no torch. The 6z GFS, at least, would give me that.
2m temps for late afternoon Christmas day:
