The Canadian ensemble agrees with the EPS and GFS ensemble in building GOA heights as we get into December.  Now we wait and see how the details unfold.

I think he is actually excited about the prospects going forward.

Some places still stuck in the 30s this morning.  Not bad.

Yep just nudge that ridge --->

The 12z GFS ensemble was actually a bit east of previous runs.  A good number of cold members on that run.

EPS seems to be doing the same thing the GEFS is doing... likely extending our wet pattern.

12Z run yesterday on top... and new 12Z EPS on the bottom.   The 12Z run yesterday would focus rain on CA... the 12Z run today focuses it on WA.

Yeah... but look at the trend even later in the run.     

12Z run yesterday vs 12Z run today...  I just don't like the trends.   It seems like this wet pattern always gets extended despite what is shown in the long range.

Location different yes. I guess I’m more focused on killing vortex and getting block more East?

Maybe... just feels like we have a long way to go yet with these AR events.

That's the only thing I'm watching for since all ensembles shut down the Pacific paving the way for that. C'MON!!!!

I would love to see the Pacific get shut down.

There is no way to say the ensembles haven't been good today.  All show a big pattern shift.

What is real cold?

Fake cold simply means inversion.

They all delayed it.   And as Matt pointed out... the big shift sort of looks like what we have right now.

Yeah, me too. It's coming and will become more apparent on the op runs in a few days. Ensembles insist on it right now.

The placement is getting pretty decent on the means today as well.

That big block that develops over the GOA on the ensembles is pretty solid and consistent at this point.  The coming MJO supports a meaningful change as well.

I want an end to the wet pattern more than anyone (its about to return).   And I hate seeing the pattern change get delayed and watered down.    That is usually a bad sign.

Sometimes real cold is warmer than fake cold.

No doubt.  We can get some killer inversions here on occasion being so far north.  January 2013 had about a week to ten days of well below normal temps with hard freezes at night under such a pattern.

It just seems like early December is about the right time.  We shall see.

One thing to like is almost all model runs shred the PV as we get into early December.

The 00z GFS did, but the ensembles don’t show it.
