Pattern January 2020 - Operation Thaw Alaska

Yeah...whoops. The complete -EPO fail is definitely concerning...the models have tried to take it negative a couple of times this winter and it's failed to materialize. When that continually happens it makes you pause and wonder if it's ever going to come.

Looking through the members, both those means are just about worthless.
 
Looking through the members:

at 288hrs: Members are everywhere. Majority looks like either +PNA or kind of zonal.

at ~330hrs: majority are +PNA and a lot are like the pattern showing next week, some kind of zonal.

at 360hrs: look above. Lots of possible snow threats looking at H5.
 
Did you not read the posts above that GaWx and I literally just posted? I posted a EPS trend in the Whamby thread. I can't make it any easier.

Yes, but I also have been reading things since Sunday, and there were a whole lot more positive and good runs of the models compared to this. One blip over 48 hours doesn't mean it's going the wrong way now. If it continues, then sure. But it's not a "trend" the wrong way.
 
This reminds me a lot of last years jan near miss coastal. I really hung my hat on the NW trend and got burned, may need to go back and read on how that played out. I'd hate to put all our eggs in one basket too but this could very well be our only legit chance in NC.

This in my opinion is the most important frame of the euro. Anything beyond 144hrs is really just noise. I'm always reminded of this when we track hurricanes. Where an LP ends up at 192hrs+ is anybodies guess.

At hour 168 the gulf gets squashed as the wave transfers.

For now the EPS (as seen below) supports a slightly weaker high.

How will this play out in future runs? Hopefully it'll allow for more help from the gulf, but I'm sure some other fly is waiting to jump into our ointment.

I got burned too, I actually went back and read that a couple months ago. We all wanted to believe so much that it was going to be a 2000 repeat.
