Yeah, we can bloviate about epic Decembers all we want, but the reality is if this doesn't change that is going to be a struggle.if that ridge over greenland can't stick around this looks like how you get a clear-sky high of 50 and a high of 70 within a few days of each other this time of year. that's what the euro OP does on the 0z run, nothing to stop our (albiet stout) trough from slipping away and failing to reload with ridging nudging in from the SW and nrn atlantic blocking shifting eastward.
the EPS and AIFS ens keep 2m anom means down through the end of the week thanks to a secondary weaker trough rotating in, but i'd put low confidence on that until we figure out that greenland situation

I definitely do not intend (won't say never lol) of falling into the trap of looking at the weeklies or these long range ensemble runs ever again with any expectation they won't change inside D7-10, because the reality is LR ensembles still suck - badly.
