Pattern Fabulous February

Wow, sure is. And inside day 10 :)

I'm just not seeing the positive here. Ridging over the top but all the cold is in the west, central and the east torches still due to the SE ridge. 12 GEFS still has it hanging there through the end of the run. The greenland blocking is actually starting to look east based. Less ridging over Hudson Bay

All this can change, but I'm not particularly liking anything about that run. I just need to come back next week and see where we are. This pattern hunting is killing me. :confused:

This could work into something better fairly easily, HLB/-EPO. Will be interesting to see which gives, the -EPO or the west coast trough. Think there will hopefully be trough in plains.

Very nice with Greenland, -AO, and -EPO blocking, At 2 meters, SE tmperatures for that same 8-13 day period are near normal as opposed to warmer than normal with cold just to our NW and there's lots of moisture..so a very workable pattern. Folks need to remember that we don't want a plunging cold pattern...those are normally very dry. who wants that here? Most here don't care about cold unless there's wintry precip.

That trough east of HI is not a good corroborator of a trough in the western US. It argues for the US trough to be farther east. Where does the model go over the next frames?
 
These snow maps are so bad but still, just maybe.

Hopefully, it will be accurate this go round. A lot of posters were saying not to worry about the ops and look at the ensembles with the threats we were supposed to have this week, and we got burned by them.
 
The fv3 sure is locked in on the icy look on the 10th

The GEFS has quite a few members with something around then as well although they differ quite a bit with track and timing... a solid signal for something of interest at least. The February 8-12th period REALLY interests me for a possible snow/ice threat for many in the south.

Look at this HP, you can't get much better than this look right here. If we can get a cold front to stall and a wave or multiple waves to move along it many would be in business.

Definitely a very interesting threat if modeled correctly. If being the key word. Any north trending of that PV lobe and its over. I wouldn't like to bet against those odds.

The FV3 is pretty much deja vu of yesterday's storm.

Yeah still a long ways out but there is at least a solid signal from the GEFS and FV3 of some activity worth watching. The latest FV3 has a 1048 HP in a nice position with ice all the way into southern GA. I like this period quite a bit, the look of strong HP after strong HP dropping down on the GEFS and FV3 is intriguing. As soon as one leaves a new one is dropping down. Some icy threats coming up if that pattern were to verify.

Agree on both counts. Definitely about time for a board wide ice threat.
