The signs are there, Alaska warming, Europe cold and snowy, MJO drifting toward phase 8 (trust me, non-met\u2019s, you may not know what the MJO is but you want to see this if you are rooting for cold\/snow here).<\/p>\n
I have been a bit concerned about a potential snow event later next week. Also, with the \u201cnew\u201d want-to-be regime fighting with the stubborn same-old-pattern, we continue to see models having difficulty predicting the medium range.<\/p>\n
Taking all this into account, and adding on a hunch I have, I\u2019ve decided to back off on the snow threat for late next week and also back off on any potential pattern change for the next 7 to 10 days, and possibly a little beyond that.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m going to stick with the more-of-the-same overall mild and now drier than normal pattern with periods of colder weather that don\u2019t have the ability to sustain themselves. I still need more solid evidence before I start jumping on the big pattern change bandwagon.<\/p>\n
So, sparing the day-to-day detail of weather systems, a good summary will be that we\u2019ll see minor systems, changeable temperatures, and limited precipitation during the week ahead.<\/p>\n
