Pattern Jammin January 2024

McMinnville TN beat their record daily low by 5 degrees this morning. With that said, their record January low of -19 is safe and the all time record low of -26 back in February of 1899 is even safer. IMG_6153.jpeg
 
that’s a legit torch showing up. Lows in the 60s, days with dews in the low to mid 60s. It’s a muggy swamp ass torch. Even exciting cape just off the airmass alone. Wouldn’t surprise me when we get to this range short range models like the hrrr show mid 70s, if we get some sun with it View attachment 142723View attachment 142724View attachment 142725View attachment 142726
Yeah I think sun is going to be tough to come by though. Probably get a lot clouds and rain during this. Doesn’t look all that much different from the around the end of December 2021 and the first few days of January 2022.
 
14.9..quite a bit colder than most models which were 7 to 10 degrees too warm for the upper Savannah River Valley. Only the rgem got it close.
 
Alan Huffman's update this morning for Fab Failbruary was not to promising.
So the theme here is that the first week to 10 days of February could be variable or go either way. At this point it would be fair to be skeptical of any sustained/long cold this winter in the East. This is a strong shot we are going through now, and I wouldnt be surprised to see another one in February, but it may be more like mid to late February and February is not looking to me to be wall to wall cold.

I am sure for snowlovers in my area at least (North Carolina outside the mountains) it will turn plenty cold in late February and March just in time for very cold rains. Pardon the cynicism.
Seeing the MJO hung up in 7 isn't great for Feb.
