It’s cute and all to gaze at the day 12+ ensembles but eventually we going to need some op runs with the magic.
This ain’t it.

I still agree with you in principle. I’m tired of seeing pretty ensemble means. I want to see a promising pattern with the key features in place inside D5 on the deterministics.let's try this one again....pattern change is cute and all until the OP's start spewing snow where we want it. Last time I ran my mouth on this the GFS heard me.
Yeah, even with these heights over Alaska, they’re modeled a big warm up next weekend… Fairbanks for example is modeled to have highs in the 20s by the end of next weekend. Typically when you see a warm up like that in the interior of Alaska this time of the year, the cold is headed southeastGetting difficult for me to poo poo the upcoming pattern change...the EPS has brought this to day 11-12 now and looks legit. Displaced Aleutian low. One thing I want to see is lipstick red over AK.
Past 4 EPS runs centered on 2/16

I don't want to overthink/analyze day 10+ GFS op runs but they diverge so much from it's ensembles. The op day 10+ stretches/splits the PV and sends a piece to Quebec/Newfoundland and sends the other part to British Columbia. That would be awful.I still agree with you in principle.

What do you mean? It goes positive mid next week and stays positive for the rest of the month into March.Should we be concerned with such a short window of +PNA? Looks narrow
He’s probably referencing that GFS Op runWhat do you mean? It goes positive mid next week and stays positive for the rest of the month into March.
Oh. I thought he was referring to the ENS. I’m not too concerned about the GFS OP run considering it changes every run. I’d be more concerned if the ENS start consistently showing it honestly.He’s probably referencing that GFS Op run
Regardless of what it shows, I think a heavy lean on the EPS Mean is the way to go for now. That's usually a good play anytime, but especially so with El Nino / Split Flow / High Latitude Blocking. Also, I feel like the Euro suite has had the hot hand this winter when models have diverged.I don't want to overthink/analyze day 10+ GFS op runs but they diverge so much from it's ensembles.

But it's the OP, it doesn't show what we want so we toss...

Can we not clutch the GEPS...I like this one. I can only imagine the snow mean.Regardless of what it shows, I think a heavy lean on the EPS Mean is the way to go for now.

This baja wave really has a southern slider look to it on all ensemble means....if if there is enough cold airCan we not clutch the GEPS...I like this one. I can only imagine the snow mean.

5 run temperature trend on the GEFS for Feb 16thTemps are always a concern but if this ain't cold enough...View attachment 145111
