Pattern Failbruary Thread

I could see a blizzard near the 1st of Feb maybe a day or so prior just gotta wait and see. 15% chance. Otherwise seasonal and not many snow chances just yet.
 
Going to do something a little different this month. You can post 1 name suggestion through Thursday morning. At that point I'll pick a random poster to pick their favorite 10 and those will go into the vote.
Whatever it is I want 2/12/10 again. 10 inches in Aiken. I think that was the date. Still the best snow I’ve ever witnessed. Started and ended with big flakes nonstop for I think 11-12 hrs.
 
So who wants to pick their favorite 10 choices?
I think packfan98 has it right with "February Hangover"; especially if we end up tracking another even for this weekend. If so, I think there are going to be a lot of us pulling for Fro's depressing news above.
 
Gefs ext basically says February is a lost nina cause, and you can start seeing signs of the SPV weakening at the end of its run, signs that spring is indeed coming View attachment 110024View attachment 110025View attachment 110026
Yep, heard that all December about January, outside of a good 10, maybe if we're really really really lucky, a 14 day period. Enjoy your few days of winter because ya know 2nd year ninas strat pv torque extensions tropical convection going to stay in a bad spot -Aamtq mountain spin unwelling volcanoes detonating solar flare induction winter's over.

I was actually one of the people vouching for a colder pattern change in January lol
 
The Ensembles however want to try to move that semi-permanent okhotsk low and budge in east towards the Aleutians towards week 2 in Feb, but the GOA ridge is just plain ugly FEDFC0BF-129D-47D9-828C-2520AB7DB9B4.png04C88020-8B39-4C67-9D56-58144D4B10E0.png2C4CD77B-4682-40ED-B186-9C7D45102086.png
 
When the extended maps are starting to look really butt ugly again, I know the dreaded -PNA is returning.
I'm thinking we are in a 25 to 30 day cycle, generally. I am confident the trough will shift to the west in February and we will generally ridge. The question is how strong will the ridge be? There still could be chances for winter weather during the transition and if the -NAO returns.
