Phil Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Pattern continues to trend worse w/rt to wave driving and PV disruption. Anticyclones descending into Siberia, no autonomous Scandinavian ridging, and N/NW Pacific ridging all but preclude a SSW before the end of the year. And Niño/+IOD conspire to force subsidence over the MC/IPWP which prevents the MJO from slowing/deepening, so what subseasonal components are present don’t fully dislodge the Niño/LP influence.

We have never had a wet winter when Nov and Dec are bone dry. models keep showing a huge ridge off of our coast through the 15th and keep kicking the can down the road.
