Pattern January 2021 - Joyless January

To be fair Dec was warm for the conus. Only the se was near average.
So looking at things, the pattern leading up to SSWE/during the energy transfer are typically warm for the eastern US
BS. Yours is a nonsense post. Maxar hates nonobjectivity and being a weenie in forecasting like JB.
They always provide detailed backup to their forecasts. Would you care to challenge them on what they said here?
I wouldn’t pay for their expertise if I thought they weren’t worth it.
It has been mostly warm in recent winters in most of the E US. So, much of the time they’ve gone with warmth and have been right. Would you prefer a JB seemingly always cold forecast to make you feel better? Besides, you want it warm anyway so you could play golf comfortably as you said.
Regardless, this only covers the next 20 days. It is beyond that that hopefully the SE turns cold again as I think even Webb said.
Exactly. Nosnow is clueless.
Let's please try to lay off the trolling and personal insults in the pattern thread. One of these days we might actually get cold and have a shot at snow. We need to be in game shape for that opportunity!
HM created an interesting composite for all the SSW Events.
i honestly think eventually even with the active pacific jet, we’ll undercut the block, may not happen like this or at this time but it’s not that uncommon with blocks 
Looks about right, looks like there’s still gonna be lots of complaining over the next few weeks per that
I'll take it. Anything that keeps the leaves from budding in winter like the last few years works for me. Frosts in the morning and 40s and 50s in the afternoon is a good winter in my books with a few colder days in there.
I can live with this look. 
Even with the pattern before the SSWE effects start, sure does look active with a pacific jet, this look at H5 argues for maybe some cold air damming events and severe weather 
Not much but something to watch 
Not a bad looking pattern as we approach mid January on the 12Z GEFS but this is still pretty far out and the GEFS has been unreliable even during earlier periods. I’m still hoping for a chilly last half of January:
Yup 
The most interesting part of the GFS you can see as the block starts to retrograde each system loses latitude and ends up with an interesting system by D16. Just based off of the 12z GFS you would have to circle 1/15-20 as a potential time period to have something hit for parts of the region. NAO block gets back toward Davis Strait so we can get a decent storm going off of the SE Canada coast in the 50/50 region and hopefully suppress the pattern enough for a miller B or maybe slip a southern slider type event through
It's not an awful pattern, but I doubt it's very cold at the surface. However, it may put western areas in play, given that it's near the coldest time of year climo-wise.

Wow
The bump off the west coast is nice speaking regionally, speaking for our backyard it would be nice if it were shifted east some.
