If the clipper and gulf system that's going to be suppressed can sync up a bit more it might be okay for Tennessee-North Carolina/Northern SC. Not one that's going to do it anywhere else though.

And by okay, I mean a lite event.

Edit: Especially Virginia.
 
GFS: What day 8-10 system? (so far at least)

If there was one though what I'm seeing on upper dynamics would probably make it not work. It's a flat flow so I'm not sure that'd it dig.

That run suck.. lol that pacific trough cuts and I guess flattens the ridge out west... is that the reason why the piece in the southern stream over Mexico cuts off and never kicks east indirectly?

Not having a block is a problem. We are likely waiting until Feb for the most part.

Reliance on a total phase in the right spot and time for us is not going to pan out.

If you're talking about the first system, the northern stream is crushing it.

And it's pretty clear right now that some monster system out of Canada is going to roll the eastern trough away after a quick period with it, we don't go back to a western trough but we go to a flat flow.
 
Something finally starts developing late in the 8-10 day period but it's weaker than what we've seen on previous runs with meh temps=meh. Unless we can get something timed up right before a moderation period, this isn't going to work.

it's the best option over the next 10 days . we will see what the ensembles look like

Blocking is key for a true Southern threat. No, we don't quite need a true -NAO or anything.. but something to slow the Northern Branch down and anchor something in place to allow Southern energy to cut underneath.

Jan is kaput for many.

Suppression depression... lol
 
damn that's a fairly cold pattern on the gfs with a brief day or two " warmup" here and there. I'll take that run all day . plenty of energy , plenty of cold, plenty of opportunity

And, that something phases with a disturbance coming out of the pacific and ends up cutting. That's not surprising though, this flow is too flat so there is nothing keeping this system from going way north, maybe if it's about a day earlier and with a just a slightly sharper ridge, it's a good upper south event. This time though waited too long.

At the very least this system is going to end up interesting those in the northeast/mid atlantic.
