PDX stayed in the 40’s today.

Same here. 30/46 for the day. But the same clouds that held our high down today are holding temps up tonight. Only down to 43˚F so far. Was nearly freezing by this time yesterday.

70 in Fargo in December would be about 50 degrees above normal.  Like having Portland hit 100 in December.  

[Gradient Keeper]

Ridge merger further west, a bit healthier albeit very skinny.

Nice cutoff low off the Baja California coast.

[Gradient Keeper]

Day 7 Now it's time to look away, grab your favorite barf bag, and turn the channel.

Day 8

[Gradient Keeper]

Call me crazy (No really, go ahead), but I actually like the progression somewhat on tonight's run. Yeah.

Would be so nice to finally get a wetter than average warm season

You know who will be with you shortly.

[Gradient Keeper]

Yeah if you were blindfolded and finger painted with dog **** that's the 00z GEM run tonight.

Gfs looked a lot worse

[Phil]

GFS flipped back to strong vortex.

It can only go up from here. I mean, yes.

00z ECMWF in 35 minutes

[TigerWoodsLibido]

If the EC is shitt then it's probly time to take a break from the models until Cyberpunk comes out on the 9th.

[BLI snowman]

Not really anything redeeming on the models right now. Endless 50/40 type days with weakish systems. 

Likely the worst case scenario.

[Meatyorologist]

Good lord I didn't actually mean what I said earlier, this 00z run sucks. Onto the 06z, I guess.

[Gradient Keeper]

Hey, hey! GEM with a BIG comeback! Day 9.5 to 10. Ridge merger, Kona forming. Trough sliding down Southeast Alaska into BC. We(I am?) are really grasping at straws, but it's all we have right now. I want to see that progression at Day 4-5. C'MON!!!

Probly not much reason for a night shift tonight. Good things will come later on.
