Our last 2-3 winters have been dominated by an active IOD, QBO and unfavorable Stratospheric conditions. We're looking at a similar issue again this winter. The warm ocean temps off the coast of Australia is resulting in rising air and convection to appear over phases 4-5-6 of the MJO. Also, the dry conditions over Australia is the main reason they are dealing with devastating bush fires. Meanwhile, the Strat is seeing very cold temps and there is little to suggest it will warm up anytime soon. These are the main reasons why we're in a mild/wet and cold/dry pattern. It will remain this way thru 3 weeks of January with moderate risk it extends into the 4th week.

If we go another 2-3 winters, then this is starting to become the new reality/weather pattern, yes?

While another two or three winters like the last two certainly would give me night terrors, I wouldn't call anything the new reality after a few winters. I well remember the late 1980s into the beginning of the 1990s a stretch of at least four, maybe five or six, winters where I couldn't buy a few inches of snow. Lots of warmth, rain and only the occasional nuisance snowstorm. During that stretch we had maybe one (two at most) storms that delivered 6" or more of snow. A lot of people said "Winter has changed, it just doesn't snow anymore." Then, like clockwork in our atmosphere's ever-cyclical pattern, the mid-1990's delivered a stretch of cold snowy winters, followed by another round of snowy winters from about 2003-2006 and yet another from 2009-2015 (minus one clunker in there around 2012).  Frankly after the good run we had in the first half of last decade, I'm not sure we should be surprised to have had a few disappointing winters now.

And remember, it is still early. Sometimes we just get a lot more snow in February/March than December/January (sorry Mikey P Wink )

I lived through the 1980's as well. For snow lovers it was hell on earth. What drives me crazy is when we have a slow start to winter and all these climate change enthusiasts proclaim that this is how winter seasons will be from here on out. What BS! We just finished up a decade with the most total snowfall for NYC in recorded history! We were due for a couple of clunkers. Weather runs in cycles. If this winter ends up in the crapper, of course I'll be frustrated but by no means does it ensure that it will repeat the following year.

COURTESY OF JB AND THE WXBELL SITE

I lived through the 70's and 80's beginning of 70's was cold n dry and teh second half was a bangor 76-77, 77-78 and then 78-79 (okay). 83 - the greatest turn around for a storm I have seen in my lifteime wnet for 1-3 " at 8:30 from....Mr. G to an all out blizzard at 1:30PM, 83-84 not bad, 84-85 was a good winter overall late Janish through late Feb ruled with cold n snowstorms, 85-86 meh, 86-87 a couple of good storms, 88 had a high end secs early Jan and a few other storms, Enough of the memory lane and Nutley so true, just like teh wildfires in Aussie land - all due to GW - lets not start but its a climate pattern variability, and....a majority were started by man.

Lets hope what I have posted comes to fruition. I see the cold air press setting up a nice gradient. Time will tell.

The GEFS continue advertising a pattern change taking place after January 20th. These pattern changes always take time. The first step is getting the Pacific ridge to move into the EPO/PNA region. The second step is getting the AO/NAO regions to go negative. GEFS show this, but it will take time for the trough to settle in over the east. Snow chances return 4th week of January but I am thinking any 'big' snows will wait until February.

Yes Frank the MJO plots are much improved. My concerns of the MJO falling into the COD then returning to the 4-5 phase later this month are less likely to occur. Looks like instead it traverses into phase 8 at months end or early February. Hope the good trends continue and we rock in February and March.

From PB on 33&rain board - love the depiction and I said about the MJO that the CFS was doing and has been doing a great job handling the MJO plots. Also, we are seeing teh wave dying in the NW AUSSIE land region in time and teh convection flaring up in phases 7 , 8 and then moving east

EPS as I posted above was showing the way to the pattern change. There is tremendous cold air in CANADA and on our side of teh globe and once we got into phase 7 the Trough starts to eject out west and this tremendously dense cold air will undercut the ridge and start to beat it back. Looks like a nice thermal gradient IF it sets up advantageously for us.

Nice changes showing up on the long-range guidance including the mjo. We have about another week or so of this horrible pattern but the first cold wave comes in next Thursday as a piece of the western trough breaks off. It only gets better after that with a negative EPO a building PNA and a much more favorable Atlantic mjo now looks like it will get into the colder phases 7 and 8 at least and maybe one and two but still too far out to be certain on that

Post by heehaw453 Thu Jan 09, 2020 7:40 am

i was concerned before that this PAC pattern would lock in for much longer duration.  Ensemble guidance continues to suggest EPO- which helps drive the cold air east of the Continental Divide and then after could get a more favorable PNA+.  The PNA+ and a muted SE Atlantic ridge would make it much less likely for storms to cut to our west.

High latitude Atlantic blocking is very difficult to forecast, but we had some of it already in December and that could pop up at any time.

I would expect on or after 1/17 it gets colder for a longer duration.  The 500mb pattern I'm not a buyer in the for the long term until i see it consistently shown into next week on ensembles.  

If things trend like this however, I don't think we will be waiting until February to see a significant winter storm here and a wide spread one at that.  

Time will tell and we need to see what happens over this next week.

Cold Air Push and we see the PV elongation or a possible split by models which could bring major cold to our region.

Looking at the flip to winter by the 20thish

IF the control is even half right this is an elastic band snap back I was referring to in above posts that happen. 2-14-15 cold?? could be. EPO looks to go Negative which is where the Polar Vortext is resting and once is gets pushed WOW that cold is really cold.

So we lost Dec 22 to Jan 17thish for  this winter - stinks but can go from then until?? End of Feb?? Mid March? Maybe....
Jim Witt calling for a April 1982 Storm Redux - that woudl be crushing!!
Warm interlude and then we get the step down and progress into a more favorable pattern.

Read from John Casey, David Dubyne and Klhara Zhardokova (all scientists and climatologists etc) that the lag time with low solar is 9 months to 2 years as well as volcanic affects from moderate Volcanic explosions - we have entered that time frames beginning. Should be interesting to see how this plays out......

The MJO phase is going into 7 as the wave propogates/moves into this phase.

CAN we get into the mythical 8 phase the death of winters grip?? As the CFS which again has been and scoring very well with teh MJO RIMM plots

And can we get to the higher 2-3 SD amplitude as the 2 yellow lines are showing in that phase? If so then buckle up - time will tell.

Though it may look warm on here it is not for January - can't find just Jan phase 7 temp chart

Look at this map - the orangy colors say SE Ridge and Math 23x40000 is saying warmth.

NOT SO FAST - look ta the source of the cold air and how the high pressures align from the Alaska region where teh Polar Vortex is sitting and just drills this into the middle of teh country and bleeds it east. It beats back SE with a billy club or a Louisville Slugger that the great Bambino once used!!

Look at this cold push

May reverse some of the absurdly positive departures after this weekend. Maybe not all the way to N but cut it by a good margin.
Build the cold air and the white gold will follow.
Old Southwr folklore, winter thunderstorms means witjin 10 days after there will be a snowstorm.
Look for it!!

Looks like our first threat with the upcoming pattern change is going to be Martin Luther King weekend. Both the GFS and Euro show a cutter with a front end thump at the moment but there ensembles are much further south. after that the pattern looks fantastic with mjo heading towards phase 8

The first step is getting the Pacific ridge to move into the EPO/PNA region. The second step is getting the AO/NAO regions to go negative. GEFS show this, but it will take time for the trough to settle in over the east. Snow chances return 4th week of January but I am thinking any 'big' snows will wait until February.

Days later and guidance insists a pattern change will occur near January 20th. I still believe this will be a step-down process that will take time to evolve, however, winter storm threats are prevalent on models for that week. I am worried the pattern change shown is not one that would take us through the rest of this winter. It could be a temporary change that lasts 10-15 days. However, let's not worry about that now and actually get ourselves some snowy weather for once!

This is just for giggles ATTM, but 12Z GFS solution would be legit threat.

You have 50/50 low acting as a block cutting low pressure and a decent antecedent air mass to start with.  How much can the low be shunted south would determine how much snow vs ice.

Nice CAD signature on this too indicative of low level cold air.

Buckle up folks - reading that the Roundy plots are taking the MJO waves into phases 8 and through 2 by later February. JB honking on a flip like 2002 and 1978 talking about a 30 -45 day winter like period.
GFS is now honking on a NAO that would build a bridge at tits end over teh top and would make this board and most weenies very happy as this would be a 1978,2002 2105 type of 2nd half.
Don't Sleep on the threat next weekend.

Ha! Of course that would be the day of the meetup! But still need more sustained cold and a longer term pattern change. The yoyo temps so far are killing us!
