While making a solid move toward setting things up for mid December by day 10, overall it continues its initial appearance of a 6/7/8 December transit of the MJO, which does support Arctic air entering the region sometime next month, going by offshore ridge placement. Continuing the waiting game to see if the details cooperate or if tropical forecasts stick. Meanwhile... models have trended much wetter in the short-mid term, at least in WA.

Barf. Please, no cold temps. This is going to murder my California fan palms.

Gem is a gem

I genuinely enjoy the model riding more than I do actual snow. LET ME LIVE

The tropics aren't going to support cold in the PNW until after the first week of December. Within the next week though we should start to see some long range pepto.
