Pattern Januworry

Definitely a good thing to see the GEFS to continue progressing cold shots in. Even if we warm afterwards it’s nice to see the pattern at least be progressive so we don’t get stuck in the SER and have periods of warm and cold. Those East of the Apps can still get a few more cool days in there even during the ridge from CAD so at a minimum it’s nice seeing that back on the models.
 
I actually like this look if we can drop that vortex close to the lakes and slow down the vort in the SW.
This is kind of what I was trying to point out yesterday .. TPV slides south we get a better possibility for cold and winter weather but if it slides north this becomes severe weather … regardless we are looking at good precip which we need
 
Huge fan of this trend to a cutoff ridge north of Alaska View attachment 99064
The EPS definitely showed improvements in the Pacific without a question. However the EPS isn't the only ensemble that show us heading in the right direction. The GEFS also makes improvements as well





This is how the GEFS looks at 366 Hours out vs 360

Notice how the GOA ridge have moved significantly northward towards AK and the North Pole. Also I see less of a -PNA/western Cold dump and therefore less of a SE ridge. The NAO doesn't seem too bad ether. Still have work to do,but we would be getting closer towards a true pattern change. Keeping trending like this and maybe we get a pattern that favorable for cold(even severe cold)and above average chances for winter storms in the SE US.

Yep, our goal here is less amped GOA ridge and higher amped ridge north of AK (like the EPS) 2018 is a great example of the similar cutoff ridge north of AK but in 2018 we matched a perfect western ridge with the cutoff ridge north of AK, really hard to do that together, 2014 is a second one
