How can this be so consistent 2 weeks out??? Maybe can squeeze out some +17C weather on Christmas if that ridge noses a bit further east.

in the middle of winter it will be more like 14c in the warmer areas but my guess is that this will be a FogFestival with temps struggling to crack 6c in the foggy spots :wave:

8-10 days out now. Has been consistent the past 4 days. The pattern "locks" into healthy REX block after day 8.

May as well go for historic warmth with that ridge axis due east. At least the Eastern CONUS gets locked into a cold regime. :roll:

That was severely underdone. We had 70cm. But it was high ratio snow, so I’ll let it slide.
