"Houston,...The Eagle has landed." Well maybe not the distance from the earth to the moon but the GFS is predicting that impacts from #PolarVortex disruption currently at 70,000 feet in the atmosphere will reach the surface in two weeks.

End of February and 1st weesk of March we can see these effects - how much remains to be seen. It tries to recover but can't and may take us through April with these effects if it does stabilize and then get destroyed.

If this happens March could be fun. I know the sentiment here and in tjis recoed breaking winter, extreme yes and I have harpes on this for sometime about our weather. It's gonna ramp up. And it's not just IMBY, there is a massive picture of record being broken for everything weather wise.This would be fun.
Wow! The 12z GFS does a double split of the #PolarVortex with 2 waves of #SSW @judah47 @PvForecast #wxtwitter That would be absolutely wild! pic.twitter.com/dkMbaYYxfh

Mom it means that it could majorly disrupt or split the Polar Vortex like it did in Dec but more so 2018 that could bring cold and wintry precipitation conditions to our area for a short ot extended period of time.

For the #PolarVortex (PV) the hits keep coming with the best yet to come from upwelling wave energy from the troposphere. What does this mean for the PV & the impact on our weather? It's serious when I dust off the six-step snow model. The blog now public: https://t.co/Gg8N2KIjJS pic.twitter.com/KBya32hZrn

This is along that Frank and I have been posting here for a while now. Dr. Lee and Butler are on this as well.
Cohen said, "I am not predicting a split just ....yet"!! That would be interesting if it happens for midish for late Feb.

Yeah Mugs the difference between December's pattern and upcoming one maybe the TPV stretching. If it sets up shop Hudson Bay or a bit to the east then we are in good shape. The NAO won't be able to link up easily with the SER as the TPV trough will pinch it off. Then we get an active winter pattern maybe But if it's true CPK won't be breaking the 1/29 record for no measurable snowfall. It'll be cold enough and active enough to prevent that. First threat is 1/23ish may favor interior but coast has a a shot especially if antecedent ridging is more like what the EPS is showing.

The Northern Hemisphere #polarvortex currently has near record low temperatures, but the #GFS at least is showing signs of a large wave-1 event in the coming weeks, accompanied by up to a 30 m/s slowdown and 10-20K warmup. No #SSW predicted yet but something to keep an eye on. pic.twitter.com/Ztp1RiyUce

Here is your top down SSWE (Sudden Stratospheric Warming event)of the Polar Vortext in motion as perdicted by the GFS. Correlation to the HT (Hunga Tonga)Volcanic WV and particulates from that explosion? Maybe but thisis interesting and exciting to watch unfold.Big change in the European Ensemble forecast for the strength of the #PolarVortex from the 24th to today. On the 24th the ensemble mean was stronger than normal right through. Today it’s weaker than normal with a clustering near record weakness mid-December. #wxtwitter pic.twitter.com/d31qaD3sI2

The Stratospheric water vapor injected by the eruption of the Hunga-Tonga Hunga Volcano in Dec 2021 has now made it past 45N. I continue to monitor this as part of ongoing research related to how this anomalously high H2O concentration might impact the #PolarVortex #wxtwitter pic.twitter.com/gQVdDmFmG6
— Mark Margavage (@MeteoMark) November 28, 2022
This is moving quite quickly as it was at 20N (Florida the end of August) so it moved 25 degrees lattitude in 2.5 months. By end of December we should be up at the 55 degree lattitudewith this Wv in the atmosphere which is :
This could promote more cold outbreaks and this encircles the globe with its heavy concnertration of water vapor WV which is massive amounts of hear and moisture. As I put in banter that Damien remarked on quite hilariously the amount in gallons is astronomical - rivaling the great flood of Noah's Ark (?) - maybe Doc reemebre this LOL! Also, disrupting the jet structure even further in more of a wavy response to all this is part of the equation. As the warmth rises into the atmosphere it forces the cold downwards just like if you warm the poles the cold air moves away and pshed, floods south. Something to keep an eye on.

(1/3) The stretching the #PolarVortex could certainly make things interesting late November if Greenland blocking signals can verify. Would provide a nice pathway for cold air to dive into CONUS.

Okay we may need the LR thread sooner than later this year, we have snow growth, PV, ENSO, PDO, IO Dipole, AMOC, Volcanic effects, signs are abound!!This is interesting to see this early.
"Yo PV let's kick it; stretch, stretch baby; stretch, stretch baby." Can't believe on October 2 we are already up to our second stretched #polarvortex of the season!

December 2020 Observations and Discussion
from BAMWxThe new GEFS is starting to see a *potential* sudden stratospheric warming event within the next 10 days. As the North Pacific pattern starts to feature some blocking (-EPO) its going to doing some serious work on the #PolarVortex. This is something to watch closely. #natgas
This woudl squeeze the PV and elongate it dropping some cold into the USA as depicted by the above maps. Time will tell for sure but interesting and some good news before the Nina state takes over.

Long Range Discussion 20(20) (Ha!)
Morning and Happy Thanksgiving to all a lot of interesting stuff today with regards to the upcoming pattern for December and onwards. It hasn't looked this good for years now and obviously it's still has to verify but there is growing consensus on all guidance of a very favorable pattern change for snow and cold lovers here in the east. Positive PNA signs of a negative AO and negative Nao showing up on guidance through the first half of December. Haven't seen that trifecta in a while which should bring wintry storm chances to our area through the first half of December. Mjo extremely interesting. the Euro basically had it in The Circle of Death for the next month the GFS wants to bring it into 4 5 and 6 today's GFS has it missing 4 heading into 5. The significance of this is if the GFS is correct it will probably cause an Aleutian High Poleward which should disrupt the polar vortex and weaken it as we head towards January as you know it's extremely strong right now also the wave should continue and head through 7/8 and 1 by the time we get to January which could promote very cold and stormy January we'll see how this involves. Also about the polar vortex numerous Mets this morning have stated that long range CVS2 guidance suggest a rapid weakening of the polar vortex late December which would also promote a colder January. If everything holds many Winter forecast will be in jeopardy and this moderate to Strong nina will behave nothing like it interesting times ahead.James Peacock
@peacockreports
(1/2) This surprisingly strong +EAMT has raised my eyebrows for other reasons too: It could set in motion a series of events that perturb the #PolarVortex in the stratosphere, raising potential for a dramatic weakening event (sudden stratospheric warming) some 4-6 weeks from now.
Matt Hugo
@MattHugo81
Plenty of interesting 'goings on': The +EAMT doing its 'thing' now, note the spike in AAM tendancy this likely to be aided by the MJO moving into phases 4-5-6 looking ahead. Decent wave 2 'attack' on the strat as well still forecast. All places emphasis on more blocked patterns.
Simon Lee
@SimonLeeWx
Some continuing suggestions from extended-range models of a weakening trend in the stratospheric vortex mid-December. Today's CFSv2 has 3 members going for a major SSW in January, but more importantly a below-average mean. Eagerly awaiting tonight's ECMWF extended-range!
