Just a few more hours before the morale either continues downwards or back up. The run to run emotions always deliver.

lol What you talking about Stevo you know good and well February is going to be warm to hot
 
Kicking the can has begun it seems. Don’t care how good things may look for February, now or later, it will fall apart and we will SE ridge for most of the month. +5 for the month.

Hope I’m wrong, would love an old school February, but I’m betting the streak.

I’m looking at it as being unfortunate, the forcing heading into Feb is awful for wamrth prospects, kinda just over tracking phantoms at this point

Sad times man. Most of the time it's the lack of cold that screws us. This year its lack of moisture. Last year was too for our area. But we were on an island of suck all alone last year while the rest of the south scored.
 
Personally, I don’t I don’t associate what we are looking at as can kicking. I usually think of kicking the can with a favorable pattern or cold setting up. Right now, we are looking at a pattern coming that can produce winter weather for some of us.

Each individual threat might not produce. Then it’s next threat up for me. One “can” disappears and another one appears on the horizon. Maybe Lucy pulling the football for each failed threat makes more sense to me?

Anyway, that’s my take. I can understand the sentiment though.

Yes, "can-kicking" can be described as waiting for a pattern change that is always 10 days away. Each day the can gets kicked on down the road. This time we have the pattern we want. We are just watching to see when the players will align and bring a storm.

Oh have no worry. Forcing for warmth will improve dramatically at midnight February 1, lol. And the moisture will be plentiful.

I think it’s really time after this winter is over to really sit back and have a discussion on is this really the new normal. Not just a phase or a dry spell but could this really be how it is from now on? We could be very well looking at the end of winter weather as we know it for a lot of us. Now sure something random will eventually pop up one of these years again and give us a few inches. But I think things are changing for the worst.

The thing that has sucked about the last few winters to me is the fact we've had these patterns that are 2/3rds-3/4ths of what we need but we've never really hit. I'm not sure if it is the lack of atlantic blocking, the pv lobes in the Hudson bay/lakes region, or the lack of high amplitude tall pacific ridging but as a whole the patterns have been fast with the trough axis too far east.

It just don't work like it used to.

Definitely disappointed how things have trended today for the early system. Running out of time…

I think an easy sign that this period wasn’t good at all was the lack of ensemble support in the snow mean for the timeframe. They were just uninspiring since forever. Although a good ensemble snow mean doesn’t guarantee it’s going to snow, a paltry one most likely means it will not imo. You want to see the numbers of members steadily go up closer in time. Huge red flag.🚩

Flow jam + mega high + muted northern stream and you’ve got just about everything you need to see a winter storm. This is the run you can get when you quickly move from a low pressure dominant pattern to a high pressure dominant one. Good things can happen when MSLP looks like this 👇🏾View attachment 182563

Looks great. Let’s revisit it next Sunday.
