Ostrich December

Ummm...
I just checked the long range GEFS which has been advertising crappy pattern after crappy pattern, worse than the Weeklies. This new run jus flipped to a -EPO for late December, early January before going to crap!

This winter is certainly trying to change things up, already 2 small events for the SE and it’s not even the 10th

Geeez slow the southern wave for like 12-18 more hours and you got a nice snow event, that’s some solid cold to boot with it
Haven't we had to depend on that to happen for the last couple of waves? Just didn't quite work out. But maybe this will be different!

Man can't ask for better timing on the 00z icon run for next Monday. Has the bulk of precip arrive at 7am in the Carolinas. So close

The last wave (today's snow) I believe was the only one like that, and really was a long shot considering the wave was coming out of the Great Lakes. This one is coming out from the NW, which tends to be more favorable. We need the northern stream to separate from the southern stream so that cold air can get ahead of the system, and build in high pressure. I think that with a "close" setup like this, cold air is there, it's just waiting to be tapped into.
 
This piece up north is going to try to keep the s/w from digging. Get a more +PNA, and have that northern piece further east, would allow it to dig, all the other models don't have it, so I'll be interesting to see how things play out. I'd attribute it to a progressive bias. However, the good
news is that the two waves continued to separate which is really important in the short-term development of this system.

IMO a good bit of the GEFS members look similar to the icon through Hour 120

Short term roast.. but who knows. Warm Christmas/Late Dec calls look in jeopardy to me.. (no idea about winter storms, just looking at movement of cold).
I’m good with dry cold. I chase the cold as much as I chase the snow honestly. Love a classic Arctic outbreak in the south. Single digit cold gets me fired up. It’s been a while.
