Pattern January 2021 - Joyless January

[FallsLake]

There's pros and cons for living on either side of the mountains. For Christmas we saw how the cold was able to push quickly in and give our friends in E. Tennessee a white Christmas; while the mountains delayed the cold for us east of the mountains. On the flip side of things those same mountains can give us CAD. Here's the euro for the discussed event. Notice a 30 degree difference from E Tennessee to the CAD areas.

Yeah the EC control is a pretty classic example of how we want that pacific to look

It's not the worst, but we need more riding north of Alaska. Not really my cup of tea.

just 10+ days out ?good news I guess is, it’s been consistent

Certainly cold though, but far out unfortunately, sounds similar

Just think, in 10 days that will only be 8 days away!

The lack of variety in temperature this month has been nothing short of remarkable at RDU so far.

We have not had a high temperature above 57°F all month, nor have we had a high temperature below 40°F. We also have not had a low temperature above 44°F or below 25°F. Normally we hit 60°F at least a few times during January, and we typically get below 20°F at least once.

Testament to -NAO/+EPO. No SE ridge (so lack of warmth), but AK vortex keeps most of the cold air locked away into Eurasia. You just end up w/ a consistently seasonable pattern day after day.
