Just forget it... I'm about to throw in the towel on this winter like I did this past summer. After this week of cold, the torch is coming back for an extended stay. Both the Euro and CFS say at least until the middle of February. God Damn it!

Maybe this storm can track it's way up to the North Pole and disrupt the PV like the last storm did.

Seems unlikely, but so is this storm. Big Sur is getting 5 inches of rain. I wonder if the chaparral will have turned green?

So you guys just went on about the uselessness of long range models and then you throw in the towel that easily?

It can all change on a dime.

It's going to curve West then SouthWest into Eastern Canada. Its funny... they are digging their records trying to find a January Topical storm. As I mentioned there was one in 1955(Alice) but that wasn't that far north as nei pointed out..


Problem is.. if we had the technology in the 1930s & 40s that we have today, we would probably see it happened. But they are checking out Low Pressure "maps" and trying to see if there was indeed one that far north. It's BS if you ask me.


We're mentioning things and we don't have a long history of records. Wake me up when we have enough data with modern tracking tools And not when Christopher Columbus was making notes with a pencil.

Yes, Tom you are right, beyond 6-10 days models are basically useless. However, there was never a good agreement on all the models calling for extended cold. In fact, only the Canadian was consistent with that. Now it seems that all the teleconnections are pointing towards a warm spell to end January and start February.


NAO going positive




AO going positive





MJO moving into a phase that is a warm signal for the eastern CONUS






and positive EPO





That's a lot of evidence for a blow torch at the end of January and start of February....
