Pattern January 2021 - Joyless January

Don’t you just wish we could slide a Baja wave under this View attachment 63530

It's just gonna be a matter of resolving the individual waves within this pattern. You can see the base of longwave trough over SE Canada is starting to dig into the southern rockies & plains states on the ensemble mean vorticity field. If that's a bonafide s/w digging into the side of the west coast ridge and not a sheared out hot mess, then we're looking at an overrunning event in this time frame.

GEFS not wasting any time as soon as the big TPV starts to knock on our door, that's a bonafide overrunning look for the I-40 corridor from AR to NC around the 17th.
The GFS operational was showing it too.
