Pattern Jammin January 2024

Euro Control says yes! I really don't think the heavy blocking shown here is far fetched. We just gotta somehow get the trough to kick east

This isn’t far fetched at all and honestly it follows the typical progression of an El Niño. Also it’s very much like Webb has indicated we should see things play out.
 
GFS was a little colder this run :)

This is the run to run change map for 850mb temps:

I know it is super long range, but even at super long range this is ridiculous cold!!! the last 66 hours every state in the continental United states (except Fla and S. Carolina) has some location that never rises above freezing.
 
What you forgot to leave out was the PNA. It’s headed strongly negative. Without a positive PNA, something trademark of February 2015, cold temperatures will have trouble reaching the southeastern United States and combining with the moisture. only marginal cool stationed in the southeast in will exist in which the strongly negative PNA will drive the cold to the southwestern US with a considerable but not excessive ridge over the southeast (thanks to El Niño). While this seems counterintuitive to the current state of Enso (El Nino), the truth is that the atmosphere is still under the “muscle memory” of the last three years predominating La Niña. After or around Jan 20th is when Webber believes the trough will eye the southeast and I agree to some extent, but the question remains whether it will be a dry cold, as which occurred in Dec of 2022. The point I’m trying to make is that I believe before the south sees snow the core region where well below normal temps exists over southwest Canada will have to at least moderate and/or shift to slightly above normal temps/heights if not above normal heights (+PNA -EPO).
