FWIW... the ECMWF weeklies also show the troughing and cold centered in the Midwest and NE by early December as well.

If we get a ridge over us in December. We can only hope that it retrogrades come January and finally break the January curse!

If we get a ridge in December I hope at least we get a good, cold, foggy inversion out of it.

Something like January 2013 would be nice. That might as well have been a foggy arctic blast! Had some highs in the upper 20s during that.

Day 9'er this run kind of sucks, but the GEFS won't be nearly this lame.

It is actually a colder run when you look at the fine details.  The trough next week is oriented more favorably for cold and 850s are lower than previous runs.

It's not all bad news. Some rain for CA/AZ and the Sierras get snow.

I guess it depends what you're looking for.  I want a quiet period with clearing so we can get some frost.

Yeah, but I guess I was rooting for an atmospheric river or wind storm.

That's what I figured.  Right now I want the first freeze.

It certainly appears the next two weeks will consistently either be chilly, active, or both..  Pretty hard to complain.
