Pattern January 2021 - Joyless January

[J.C.]

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.

I for one am happy with that. Cataloochee has close to a 70" base with this current setup, and that is more important than me getting significant snow.

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

Kinda like COVID reports!
15 out of 10 tested positive yesterday.
Like I said last night about 0z GFS I don’t buy the torch runs yet!

Euro has never really looked bad for us... definitely worse the past couple days but still colder than GFS and GEFS ... I would gladly take the EURO and the EPS camp way more than I would the GFS GEFS

Its been stated on here by many that a -EPO and - NAO is extremely difficult to get simultaneously. And historically-NAO winters are usually decent around here, so obviously you don't need the EPO. But you do need the +PNA. But what does the N Pacific ridge that seems to find a home there every winter say about that? Its definitely going to cause a trough downstream. Can the NAO bully everything to retrograde west and raise heights out west and shove the trough out into the Pac? I've heard the NAO carries more weight into Jan and Feb so I guess time will tell.

What a spread at the end of the EPS again. It sucks this weekends 60s/70s will end up as highs struggling to get out of the 30s.

This is hilarious, and yeah this weekend isn’t looking warm, Looks depressing lol, that was a timeframe models had highs approaching 60-70 at one point

I mean you are looking at almost 50 degrees on some of the spreads, wild.

Not cold enough for snow yet too cold to be nice outside and cold enough to run up the power bill. At least it isn’t rainy.

Let's see how this evolves but the MA folks have to be perked up for the last week of Jan.

Can we see the individual EPS members if anyone has?

Way more ridging out west so far and it’s what has made the difference between warmth and a close gang buster storm ... I smell something going on here .. bad trends don’t last forever ??‍

 

[NickyBGuarantee]

Euro clearly seeing something coming up .. we might be getting bamboozled again

 

[ajr]

The SER is trending into a +PNA? ?‍

I have a feeling we are going to be talking about this bad boy block in the pacific a lot more in the coming days .. getting mightily close to Alaska here on the latest GFS .. impressive

 

[NickyBGuarantee]

But you also

have to worry about that death black hole by the west coast ... we want that further away

 

[NickyBGuarantee]

Uh oh GFS wants to do it again ..

 

[NickyBGuarantee]

These low pressure diving down like they are ... god bless the -NAO I don’t know what else would be causing them to do this

It’s like a clipper trying to wrap around a wedge
