Winter equivalent of modelling over-deepening tropical systems below 900 mb's during the summer. The new CMC "uncle in law" model I guess...

Well the 12z GFS was a quite entertaining run toward the end.

GFS is only allowed to be correct 1 time or less in a winter season! ...and that token has already been used. Back to its usual Lucy and the football mode

One thing I can say is that both GFS and the Canadian have -30°F to -40°F temps building in Canada around the 28th. We'll see if that's true and where it goes...

Can anyone explain the reason the Euro shows the opposite? I'm trying to understand these things. Thanks.

I don't think anyone is capable of explaining that. :)

All I have to say is... :lol:

It's fools gold. Bite at your own peril. If the last "winter storm" wasn't proof enough that the models are clueless that far out and not only lost the storm but lost the intense cold too. In fact the snow we had almost 2 weeks ago offered colder daytime highs than what we'll see this weekend and early next week.

I know I may be in the minority, but I am enjoying this warm SE Texas weather. It's beautiful outside, what else can I say....days like today make me glad I don't live up north. :-)

Yeah I’m the exact opposite. This weather is disgusting in December. This weather is “nice” if it happened in August.

18Z rolling in. Get your popcorn ready. Its already slower with the New Years-ish cold blast. But with a deeper western trough than the 12z.

Well the 18z brings some cold, but nothing too out of the ordinary and no frozen precip. Probably alot closer to reality than the 12z.

Dear GFS,
Keep projecting the cold. We'll catch up to that hour 240 mark at some point this winter.
Sincerely,
Just a guy sweating in my deer stand
